Please help with seats !!!

Ok I have a A10 red hit on order and I told the salesman to call me when you get a m6 in so I can sit in it. He called my today to tell me he just got in a 2017 1LE. So I went sit in it because I never sat in racaro seats before. And wow they so uncomfortable . Are the zl1 seats the same as 1LE ?? Man I don't know if I will get used to those seats. Any input would be great guys !!

Yes. They are the same seat. Just different trim, and power features.

Much more support than a standard seat...

I don't mean to be rude...but I'm curious if you're a bigger person?

Well everyone has been saying how comfortable the ZL1 seats are. Maybe they're meaning for a Recaro, I don't know. I also watched a video recently that said the 1LE doesn't have the cooled Recaro seats like the ZL1, so maybe they are different. Hopefully someone can tell you for sure.

1LT, and 1SS 1LE Recaro seats do not feature heat or ventilation, but they are the same structure as the ZL1 seats. Their shape won't be any different.

The skinny guys all say they are comfortable.

I'm 5,9 196 lb's . I've never had a chance to sit in a new zl1 only a 2017 1LE But it was very very tight. I was hoping the zl1 seats were better aka more control .

That sounds about right. Recaro seats = tight, and snug.

Said this in a couple threads. I'm 6'3" and 220...ish. 35" waist.
Recaros fit great. Not tight, comfortable snug. They are supportive, you will feel the bolsters on your thighs and back.
Tight is a race seat.


If you want we can swap. I'll even give ya $500
