Are the seats in the new WRX the bucket style without seperate headrests?

Also, do they have the bump in between the legs

I cant remember following my test drives and I have just seen them in the new brochure and they looked fairly "standard" seats. I do remember them being pretty nice when I had a drive.

New owners....can you enlighten me?

Er..
Not for a 8 stone wimp... Before any corner, I have to move my body over to the side of the seat, else I don't get any support.

I don't think they've changed them from previous models, at least not from my RB5.

If they haven't changed them, they should have the bumps between the legs. My MY00 does know what you mean about bein too skinny for them though... ?

Test driving the STI8 tomorrow so I will confirm my suspicions.
I had read that the 03 seats were a cross between the 01 sports seats and bucket seats.

Seats are all in one but no bumps. I find them quite supportive and if anything a bit narrow, but overall thumbs up

Just seen on the pics that they are different to the MY00 ones. I think the STi8 ones are more the right shape..

MY03 has a new seat... a cross between a Bucket and the basic tourer seat.
Very Comfy.... but i do like the bump between the legs
but lets face it... the pre MY00 etc... the seats are pants on long journeys!
