How are the carbon seats for someone who hasn’t skipped leg day? I am worried the center carbon section may get in the way…

6-2 225 with hockey legs. I fit perfectly fine and there no restriction on driving a manual. The dick holster doesn't even tough my legs.

You’ll probably be ok unless you tower over this guy who’s 6’ 7”. Video @5:10 shows a proper egress for larger individuals. 😂

Then you’re not as big as you thought you were, huh? 😝

What happens when my "unit" is not big enough to fit in the dick holster? Should I skip bucket seats to avoid thinking about my inadequacy daily?

That's what she said?


But seriously, slide your ass all the way into the seat. Unless you are doing Tom Platz leg day all day I think you'll be fine.

I’m 6’2”, 218 and big legs. My leg thickness isn’t the issue. It’s the way my hips are built. My legs splay open and press into the side bolsters. Uncomfortable.

You have to sit in them and actually drive the car to see how you get on with them.

I couldn’t stand them and went for the base seats (which are also very nice). The carbon buckets look amazing but are not for everyone.

These seats can be like high heels for women…. they can be uncomfortable, but they look so good you just don’t give a fuck and deal with it. 😆

6'6 - 250lbs. They were snug when I test drove, didn't think they'd be comfortable for long drives, and being the southwest, I wanted ventilated seats.

I would have liked the aesthetic of the carbon buckets, but I don't miss not having them...the base sport seats are still really good.

I’m 6’1” 220 wide hips and they’re not the most comfortable width wise. That being said I did 5 hours in them yesterday and I had no pain so they’re definitely serviceable. That being said I would rather have comfort seats.

I personally did not like the seats. Looks/price wise -> 18/10.

Getting in the car -> 3/10.

Comfort once inside -> 5/10.

The top portion of the seat was great but the bottom was the issue. I could not get myself to be comfortable. The middle part was annoying for me and I would like more leg room on the sides.

I know it’s a bucket seat for racing but I did not have these same issues with the GT3 buckets. I’d still order the comfort seats for that as my daily, but I could manage those buckets for the track and not have any issues. I would not with the BMW.

Most people don’t mind them but I’d try to sit in one before ordering if you can. I’m glad I did because I would’ve ordered them otherwise and end up being disappointed.

The base seats are not sporty at all, and don’t look like they belong in the m3.

Uh, ok. Sure.
