As long as they are heated and cooled, the comps for me: 6'2" 195lbs

Can the seats be ordered in Black with yellow or orange stitching? I didn't see that although I've heard the 3LZ allows options the other levels don't. Thanks for the help.

I had the comp seats in my C7z and now in my C8. I'm 6', 185, both seats were pretty comfortable for me, even on longer trips. The C8 definitely has higher sides and I find makes it a bit harder to get out of the car than the C7's because you have to lift up over that higher side.

thats the biggest concern i have with them. getting in and out after the newness wears off might become a hassle.

My C7 GS had Competition Seats and I loved them. I was thinking Competition seats on my C8....fortunately my dealer received a C8 Captured Test C8 with them and invited me to drive it. When I first got in I thought they were fine....firm but fine.....after about 30 minutes in them on Interstate 80 I was begging to get out of them. They really were uncomfortable for me and hurt the sides of my thighs. I ordered GT2 seats and I'm very happy with them....they feel a lot like the Competition seats I had in my C7 GS.

I think we should turn this thread into body shots of everyone who lifts because it's not measuring up LOL. I'm 5'11 250 420 Bench/500 Squat/415 Deadlift (45 y/o) I've had a C7Z with Competition Seats and just sat in the competition seats this past weekend at MM. I'm broad with massive shoulders and I have no complaints. I can definitely feel the side bolsters on my outer thighs but by no means tight. The bottom part of the seat is definitely tighter than the C7 gen Competition Seats.
