Question

Does anyone have a picture of the Sports seats that are available for the WRX?

I had a MY98 Turbo with the bucket seats, and although I loved it, I kept getting a sore back on longer drives. Also the wife, parents and Grandparents complained about getting in and out of them.

I want to buy a new WRX, and am wondering what the Sports seats are like. Are they more comfy? Obviously the side impact air bags are a bonus too!

Thanks

The MY98 seats are too tight for fatties, but from what I gather those in the MY99 were wider to suit the "larger" build.

The WRX buckets seem closer to the MY99 than the MY98.

I've tried both the sports seats (recaro) and buckets on the new age on long drives - I find the buckets a nice fit but they do give back trouble. The sports seats have more padding but less side support when thrashing her round corners.

I prefer buckets from the looks alone and put up with the back pain - which isn't much.
