Recaros

So I've been wondering to myself for a bit here if I shoulda got the RA instead of my GTS. I wish I had awd and the turbo would be nice, but I hate the RA front. So today when I went to the dealer I took one for a test drive to see if I made a mistake. I didn't. I'm not a huge guy but I've got really wide shoulders. I couldn't barely fit into the recaros. I've never been so uncomfortable in a car in my life. The parts at your shoulder and neck height to hold you tight wasn't wide enough so I had to squeeze and push my shoulders right forward. The drive only lasted 10 mins before I was too sore and brought it back. Everybody always has recaros on their wishlist and would prob get them if they had $$. Canadian RA only come with recaros I was told. Does anybody else find this with the Recaro seats?

you could always trade some one for there gts seats, so you could have the turbo as well as the four wheel drive,but with the comfort you need, i,m sure the dealer might even trade you the seats, if no one on the forum does
