04+ seats worth the cost?

**matt5112** · 07-01-2012

Just curious as to how much more supportive those things are.

If theyre only marginally better i dont see them being worth the investment to me.

Very annoying to slide out of the seat with the slightest of corners.

Seems any modern car has better seats than 97-03 grand prixs.

Also curious as to the weight difference.

They are comfy.

But I haven't driven long enough in them to say how much more supportive they are. Or provide any real helpful insight. Somewhat pointless actually.

They are comfy though

matt, buy those ebay RACE buckets already.

**Mad Monkey** · 07-01-2012

both matt, course i had crappy Se seats in the 99..

but really 04+ are way comfier for long drives etc, and give the illusion of support with the side bolsters.

**matt5112** · 07-01-2012

Hmm. Might see what sort deal i can find.

**Mad Monkey** · 07-01-2012

Can you beat 200 for the front to my door?

**addzradd** · 07-02-2012

110% worth it, upgraded to GXP seats the passenger folding all the way down is very useful and they are much more comfy on roadtrips and hold you in better during auto-x. only downside is they are about 12 lbs heavier.

**matt5112** · 07-02-2012

Is there any difference between the seats minus the covers?

In support i mean. I know everyone wants gxp's for the suede but I couldn't be bothered.

I'd prefer cloth as its cooler and cheaper.

**blueguy** · 07-02-2012

They are WAY more bolstered than 97-03 seats...compared to other '04+ seats...then yes, I think they are just suede covered.

**txslow6** · 07-02-2012

Has a more sporty feel as well and the comfort is far superior to the 97-03.

**matt5112** · 07-02-2012

Yes sorry i meant of the 04-08, are any more supportive than others.

**xBlacKxGTPx** · 07-02-2012

200 to front to my door??? Elaborate please

Matt... being that my heritage contained the most comfy/supportive seats ever made. I'll weigh in. The 04+ are so much better than the 97-03, it's not even a consideration. Do it. I would not personally drive a 97-03 based solely on the front seats sucking so badly. However with a seat swap...I would maybe drive one.
