Amazing side bolsters that will hold one in as we hit ludicrous speed in our Pcars LOL

Try the p-car sport buckets (derived from the GT2). Once you go bucket, you never go back.

It's actually those seats that made me stop caring about the bolsters in the M5...cause they'll never be THAT good

Rob, these two hoodlums are still trying to convince me to buy one.

Na, it's Vic applying the pressure. For what it worth if the 2014 GT3 was on the market I would have gotten that one ........oh did I say that? In reality the 991S does what I need it to do. Yes I know I have to get the revs high, but the sound is so sweet, and those seats wrap around you like a glove. By the way no buttons needed to wrap you on they just fit(: The force is strong in you young skywalker. In GA this weekend lets meet for coffee.

Actually all I do is ramp on when you comment or poke at him or I answer his questions... no initiation coming from me (well maybe a little

)

The adaptive seats in the 911 are nice, but I'm talking about the sport buckets available for the 918, GT2, GT3RS, Cayman R, Boxster Spyder and hopefully for the 991 GT3 soon. Carbon fiber shell, zero adjustability - well, you can manually slide forward and back, haha. Track ready...my 6-point harnesses arrive next week

As Vic says, not for the buffet variety.

BTW - I'm not saying that the M5 should offer track seats. They would make no sense in a zero compromise comfort machine like the F10.

So I got a call from BMW today regarding the seats. They are not looking to compensate or retrofit the problem, stating that it was a safety regulation issue with North America. I asked for a statement from BMW regarding this matter and they are not issuing out any statement as well. But he did mentioned if there are enough complaints that BMWNA might offer a retrofit, but that is a long shot.
