370 vs. 350 seat comfort

i'm 5'8", 160lbs. and my 370 (Roadster with leather), to me, feels more snug all around than my previous '06 350Z. The seats definitely feel like they hold you in

i'm 5'8", 160lbs. and my 370 (Roadster with leather), to me, feels more snug all around than my previous '06 350Z. The seats definitely feel like they hold you in tighter. I also think the 350 can adjust the seats farther back allowing more legroom. I'm not sure how you guys over 6' can fit in the 370! I have my seats as far back as possible without rubbing and could still use a few more inches of leg room

EDIT: I forgot to mention...I'm about 10-12lbs. heavier than I was when I owned my 350Z so I'm sure that has a lot to do with why my butt feels bigger in the 370z...

I haven't ever driven a 350z, but I am 6'1" and this is the first car where I sometimes have to sit somewhat at an angle (with one butt cheek off of the seat) because my left leg starts to go numb, which I attribute to compression of my sciatic nerve. Not so comfortable.
