I order the sport pkg, so my car is coming with "sports seats".
Anyone have pics of the differences?
How do they differ from the "Comfort" seats?

Thanks very much. How do the stock seats differ from those sports seats? It almost looks like the sports seats are the stock seats. I can defintely see how the comfort seats look different.

Comparing with the regular seats in the sport seats there is more support in the legs area and in the side area. The legs area can be regulated in extension too.
The Confort seats have more electric regulations, i think that all the regulations are automatic including the head support and with several memories to store the positions according to the user of the car.
In Europe it is like that, i don't know if in the US the packs are the same.

The comfort seats pic above also has the exclusive leather option which makes it look different.
Comfort seat has lumber as standard, also the back of the seat is hinged half way down and the side supports can be altered to grip you more or less effectively giving you sport seats when you want it. The head rest has flaps like an airline seat that are pulled out manually as well.
I think standard seat varies by country, in the uk you get a seat which is moved forward manually with electric for tilt and height. I think in usa you get full electric.
Also sports seats don't come with lumbar as standard incase that's important to you

I ordered std seats - but with elec memory . ( thought it was a bit pricy at 745 GBP.)
I must say - at the time of ordering I thought this would simply make it easier for the missus to use the car . I didn,t realise that the elec adjustment included elec angle + length control for the steering wheel. I,m rather chuffed to discover this!
