If I read your post correctly, racerdave, you said your back was sick of your SE seats. My back can not take the lateral forces or the impact due to MI roads and new suspension. I could really care less about the leather. The quality is good enough for a $23,000 car. It shouldn't be Mercedes level. It does the job, but the lateral support is awful. My old SHO had much better support. I am looking to see what's available to upgrade so I don't have to flex my back everytime I want to play in my car. Seth, I think I'll call you, but I understand Recaro seats are way expensive.
Anyone have any suggestions for better seats that can somehow closely match Ford's ******* Midnight blue - cool, but not too popular.
