Default Seat questions.

Hey guys, I was just curious if the seats in the 12-13 C6s are noticeably better than the older C6s? I don't mind the sport seats in my 06, but they could use more shoulder support, which the 12+ seats look like they have more of. I'm sure it would be an expensive swap, but I haven't had the chance to even try them out yet. Thanks!

Default I believe so (anecdotal)

I traded in my '07 on a '12 Grand Sport......seats feel far more substantial (even accounting for age/wear) especially from the bolsters through the shoulders..........

You can actually buy the seat foam and skins and install them yourself for around $1400.

I upgraded my 2010 2LT seats to 2012 4LT seats.

Here is my thread on my conversion.

Changed out my 2010 3LT to the 2012 4LT seats - noticed an improvement as well - more important to me was the fact that the wife who is not a car person by any means actually was impressed by the improvement.
