Scared me thought you had a prison/sodomy story or something.

i dont mind the seats at all, have you ever driven in a 99 miata? those seats are metal rails!

the seats seem very comfortable to me; but i am accustomed to smaller cars with wannabe recaro's

if you are coming from a truck or a luxury vehicle well ya i could understand the differences; s2k's seats werent too impressive to me; i have driven a 2002 s2k and it seemed similiar to the miata's to me

overall to each their own opinion which is why we have a forum; to me the seats are fine, not great but livable; i am in love with my car though; so bear (bare?) that in mind. my opinions are certainly biased

Funny you should mention the Miata - I got a 1st year Miata in 1990 then the S2000 in 2000 and now the 370Z in 2010. Looks like I am on the new car every ten years plan. I wanted to get a coup for this decade, getting too much sun. The Miata seats were fine, basic but very comfortable.

Everybody is shaped a little differently. I am short at 5’6” and about 165ish. With the unmodified seat, it felt too soft and my butt sank in between the rails and they dug into the sides of my legs. It was like the springs were disconnected or the padding was missing. Not a hold you tight sorts car feel, more of a homeless person feeling.

Just throwing this out there a century is 100 years, 10 years on the other hand is a decade.

But anyway to add to the actual topic, I have the base model I don't find the seats that bad but I do like the 350 ones a little better. Coming from the G37s I don't see that much of a difference, maybe because I'm in my 20s

Im saving my prison sodomy story for next week, its not as bad as the base level seats.

Maybe its a defect in your seat? I'm the same weight as you and the base seats feel great to me. I've been on road trips too and it doesn't bother me.

I love the base seats, very comfortable and snug for an average size guy in my opinion. Definitely don't feel any seat rails poking me, not even when throwing it around.
