I found the 370z seats to be ok. Long trips were meh. But they were far better than my c6z. It's probably a seat adjustment+posture issue.

Make sure your bums higher than your knees. I went to chiropractor and she said your legs should always slope down

Default Seat pain

Once again (last time) the Sacro-ease seat is just magical. You can bend the frame for the best fit. Best thing I ever bought for the Z.

Default Really guys..... Get real!

We have 3 370z's in our household, each of us are a different height and weight - none of which are overweight. One of the three DO experience the right hip issue so it IS real. We all love these cars so not one of us is ready to give it up but this bolster issue does need to be addressed. Looking for REAL solutions if anyone has them. Considering trying a G37 or G35 seat....

Let me take a guess. Is it the male of the house that has the hip pain while in the z?

No issues for me and I have 2 bad knee's that need to be replaced, I am just too young at the moment. No issues with the 6MT.

I've owned a G35C and for me the seat was more comfortable than the Z's. It had better lumbar support and felt a little narrower, but I do have a slender built. I really don't know if the difference in seats would fix the hip problem though.

My legs go numb since the butt support is very small for me, I am 6.1 and 177 lbs and there is almost no leg support, my legs are basically off the seat and all the weight is on my butt. I love my car but hate the seats, they are garbage in my opinion. I am looking at getting Recaro or similar with extended leg support

Can't you adjust the tilt angle on the bottom portion of the seat to get more leg support? That's the first thing I did when I got my car and while driving it home for 4 hours. Get it dialed in so that you have the right amount of thigh support while not making clutching too difficult if you have an MT.
