Seats

Ok I was going to pick up a set of seats from an 05 G35 4 door, but I didn't like how they felt. Im not in the market for race seats, I want something thats going to feel awesome, and somthing in nice leather. I was looking ebay looking at seats from a 7 series Bimmer (but after seeing the inside of one today no thanks) M3 seats maybe, S series Mercedes, Acura RL, and others. I can make them fit by adapting the rails to work. My boss has an 02 and 07 Z06 both of those are comfy hmmm

Do any of you have luxary seats in your car? If so what do you have? I plan on recovering the back seat to match when I redo the interior. But lets see pics if you have something different. I wanna be able to sit and relax and not be able to hear the radio over the exhaust.

You should go with ZO6 seats. Corvette motor needs Corvette seats.

Audi TT seats are amazing. It depends on your physique. I'm rather big at 225/6ft 1 and im comfortable in them.

Srt4 seats- for a guy with 30in waist.

i don't think you can call them luxurious but the cloth seats in my brothers '02 maxima are very comfortable. my dad has a '96 maxima with leathers seat but i don't like them, they're too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter.

anyways what i'm getting at is that leather might not be a good choice. but it's your money you do what you'd like with it.

yeah thats a bean bag chair. Just bungee cord that down.

Seriously though, if you want couch seats early 90s Cadillac or Buick seats can't be beat. Its like sitting on pillows.

I can get you a pair of G35 seats from a coupe, those are WAY different from the sedans. Sporty, holds you in place, yet very comfy.

And yeah, the corvette seats are... not good. You'd think that with a car like the Vette, GM woulda made better looking seats. Luckily the new Camaro seats will be designed WAY better.

Vader seats from an E36 M3 are pretty fabulous. They still go for real money, though. Black leather for something like $400 a pair.
