Default Have the seats changed since 09?

Last Corvette for me was a 2009 3LT coupe that I sold about 10 months ago. Getting ready to pull the plug on a 2013 and when looking at photos online the 2013 seats look like they have more padding and are built better. Or is this just my mind playing tricks with me?

Seats upgraded in 2012. All are great since then - even the base seats.

Yes, your mind is playing tricks with you
BUT the seats were changed/improved in the 2012 model year and of course continue for 2013 models.
2014 C7's will have a further improved seat with 2 choices of comfort/fit

I had a 2007 3LT. I now have a 2012 2LT and the non-sport seats are just as good if not better the the sport seats in the 07.

I traded in my SRT8 09 Challenger two days ago for a new 2013 2LT and I can say that while I thought the Challenger's seats were awesome, the Corvette's are light years ahead. Then again, two differently styled cars for different uses.
