It does look a little alien spaceship-y, but it does look comgy.

Yup, back in the C4 days that was a cool feature. But, they were comfortable.

Not having a true Kalahari seat next to the ZR-1 seat its hard to compare. Most folks with Kalahari say that it photographs a little on the Orange side and that ZR-1 seats leather/vinyl sections definitely does look Orange. However the cloth inserts look Pink in the photo and I gotta agree with "Stangslayer" it is FUGLY.

The center has been replaced. The whole seat when new was the same finished leather as the bolsters

And I don't recall the headrest logo on the factory seats either... I had a '91 coupe with saddle seats that were close in color to kalahari...
