Standard seat for me as I'm not a track star.

Genuinely dislike the og m2 seats and wish that I had the f8x seats in it. I don't think the seats are terrible but they lack support when going through twists and turns. Also don't think they're the most comfortable after driving for 2 hours.

This thread falls under the pre introduction somewhat useless things to argue about but nonetheless I read the whole thing and commented anyways out of boredom and anticipation of the new release category of posts ... now standby for my intermediate level track driver review of the shadow-line trim on the bottom of the car !

I plan to do some big road trips and really use this car so the buckets are out for me.

Aren't the standard seats in this M3 the same ones from the X3M?

if the seats are anything like the X3M then go with the buckets style ones. I found the X3M seats very uncomfortable for a 200lb guy like myself.

A review that is the opposite of any other review of these seats. Did you do any driving in them or just sit in them for 1-2 mins?
Also out of curiosity how do they compare to the og m2 seats? |

Having sat in both completely disagree with OP's entire post. The standard seats for the average person will be very supportive and are extremely comfortable. The lumbar has a high degree of adjustability and should definitely hug you well in place.
Unless you plan on tracking or want the cool factor of the CF seats they are a waste imo. Regular seats will be tremendous for spirited driving. |

If you're offended by ProdigyM2's comments that the regular seats are for people who want something comfortable as a grocery getter, that's not Prodigy being pompous, but you being a bit insecure. Not really sure why you'd feel that way though. Like I said, I fit in the grocery getter demographic. I've never taken my F80 to the track and find that the standard F80 seats are fine for occasional canyon carving. Reading Prodigy's review makes me feel like the standard seats probably fits my needs more than the carbon buckets. This is because I'm paying attention to the details of his comments and taking them at face value without any perceived slights or inferences. As a result, I don't feel less manly or looked down on for concluding that I'd probably lean towards the standard seats after reading Prodigy's comments. Obviously I'd want to try both myself before making a final decision. But, WTF do I know? When I look at 911 GT3s, I would never get carbon buckets even though everyone in the Porsche world thinks it's sacrilege to get any GT car w/o them. |
