Sorry to hear that. That being said, however, the cloth seats in my '11 Z are by far the best I've come across. I drove a Cruze from Charlotte to DC (5.5 hrs) to pick up my Z and my shoulder socket was popping and I had a sharp pain just above my right hip. The drive home took 6.5-7 hrs in the Z and it was, no joking, 'just right'. I had no pains in my back, none in my shoulder. I'm 6'2", 173lbs. Maybe you can adjust the seat position or bottom dials a little better and not to just what feels good for the first 30 minutes (not certain that's the case).

I can only compare these seats to an 07 Civic, 05 Protege5, 05 Pontiac GTP, 95 Integra GSR, 96 Neon, 89 Bronco, 78 RamCharger, 04 Ram, 89 Lebaron, 89 Caprice, 91 Escort wagon, 78 LeMans, 78 LeSabre, 67 Pont.GTO, 54 Chevy (flatbed deuce and a half), '64.5 Mustang, 69 Mustang, and a few more I've owned.

I hope you don't have any further pains from the seats in the car and hope a solution is as simple as a re-adjustment. (seriously, some people never learned how to adjust their seat properly- hell, my fiance held her bright-light lever back towards her for years until I said she could just pop it forward and they would stay on. From that day, her nickname has been 'bright-lights').

GL!

Because you got heavy foot?

This has been discussed a ton. The base seats (which I have in mine) are pretty bad, I mean they are fine if you like did a good workout are fully awake and ready to tackle the world, but if your like tired, hungover or sore, the lower portion of the seat digs into you - simple reason is the lack of padding.

Its a mod I want to do down the road, upgrade to Recaro Sportster CS

I've seen a couple members have then on here and pretty sure they got the airbag thing also fixed after the switch over. You can get very comfy seats and yet very supportive - just look at the seats that come with the Boss Mustang.

My biggest complaint is I didn't buy a Z sooner.

winnre

Ain't that the truth. I had a Mercedes and a Porsche and the Z beats them both!

what bothers me is long drives... its a bucket seats so my lower back kills me im 20years old and i still get pain from it

I have been doing exercises specifically for this reason for the last 15 years. Consider looking into some back stretching exercises and doing them for 20 min about 30 min before you get in the car for a long drive. It helps tremendously, as I have never had the Z seats hurt any worse than any other car I've driven significant distances. I live in TX and on multiple occasions have put nearly 1K miles on a rental car in a single day without even leaving the state - 800 miles is the most I've put on the Z in a single day. Stretching is by far the best solution I've found.

What seats are they, The cloth or the leather? I have had no trouble with my leather seats.
This is a very good idea

dam thats not good, when you are older that will get worse, I actually think the Z seats arent that bad, they are comfortable compared to altima seats.

I have back pain all the time... But with the touring seats with the lumbar set to the max... I could drive for hours in my car... I did, lol, I drove from Dallas to LA, and I'd do it again, over and over, lol (my friends didn't believe me about the comfort until I drove it out, now they all agree I have the the nicest riding interior (most of them have RX7s))

My dad, even when he drives my car thinks it's comfy, he has REALLY bad back problems, and while he doesn't care for the roof being low or the pain to get in and out or even the leg bolsters, he likes the back support, and the seat heaters, although I JUST taught him about those

Is your Z MT?

ZForce

Z34 seats alot better than 05 & 06 seats...imo

Oh...and the heated seats make all the difference if any pain should arise.

Umm..complaints..
lets see...
Um perhaps the fact that I can not set the time to military time.
I regret not making touring an option when buying.(does this belong in those regret threads?)
umm another complaint is the paint..just cause..I don't think I have had real issues with is like other people, but its black and I am totally ocd over the paint. Just looking at it gives it swirls, in other words it is pretty soft.

ummmmmm I think that is it.

winnre

Military time would be da bomb! I retired after 33 years Army, so I need to learn Air Force time again (the big hand is on the 3....).

I got the touring because I wanted nav. I'd have passed on it and got the base model with sport package is the rear view camera in mirror was available. I wanted this for a FUN car so I was not going to settle.
