If you track your car all the time, buckets are a must. This bucket seat hype is similar to what you find in the Porsche GT community, although most of those guys rarely drive their cars so one could see it being justified there.

does anyone know the weight difference between the regular seats and the buckets on the G80? It's a bit odd to me that BMW chose to make these power adjustable instead of manual... could've saved some more weight that way.

I find the part of being electrically adjustable and having a memory function totally awesome, I can have a track/aggressive position on #2 and a more relaxed position on #1.
