I dailied a pole position in my S2000. It was only tricky because the car was so low to the ground. With this being leather and a little higher up, I'd totally consider doing it in the M. This seat was sooo comfortable. I'm a 36 waist and 6' 3" and fit like a dream.
Brandon, where is your shop and how much would a pair of black leathers run installed? Dave |

no adjustment - specifically fixed back, no access to back seat (easy access)
cool seat, I just wouldn't go with it unless I was doing a lot of track driving and only weekend street driving in the car. Not my choice if you use the car more as a DD or go on long trips

You're correct - the backseats are a ***** to get into, but we're planning a rear seat delete to be installed in the near future to shed the extra weight anyway. It's rare even with the stock seats the car ever saw more than 2 people in it. Absolutely - we have our own Signature Program coming soon. Quote:

Losing the backseat in combo with this upgrade is a sweet deal for shedding weight. Combine this with a light weight battery and you'll shed a ton of weight off this car.

Possibly, I will need to have a sample here as we don't get many M6s coming in through the doors.

That's a matter of opinion up to the end user.
Do they make the car more fun to drive? Yes. You'll also notice yourself using less effort to stabilize your body on the dead pedal since you're locked into position.

I find the pole positions a lot more comfortable than the stock seats. Obviously I am no longer fiddling around with the electronics to make my back feel better
After long trips or a whole day at the track my back is a lot happier with me for not being in the stock seats |

Rear Seat delete is still some time away, but PM me what you're looking for and I'll be happy to look into it - this way we can keep the thread showroom related.
