I'm not sold on them. You loose powered adjustable seating and no option for heated.

Can I just swap seats from my Z when I trade in for the GT500?

No.

And you don't need power or heat. Don't be a pansy.

The first thing my wife will say is "it's a $60k car and you don't even have power seats?"

I'll say "but it doubles the HP of my last car"

She'll say "all I hear is blah, blah, blah...the seats aren't heated either"

I guess that's ok. I mean, at least the GT Prem seats are nice.

That's when you put it to the floor and then when that is over you tell her see you don't need powered or heated seats when you are pinned to them like this. Me personally I could care a less about the powered/heated function of any seat as once I dial it in I dont need to move it. Also when vacumming out the car it takes forever for the powered seat to take its precious time to slide forward so you can vacuum under and and behind them. So see you can also tell her the GT500 is all about speed...even the seats are FAST!!! haha
