Of course it is 'retired'. The closest replacement is the Style XL. The Caddy Recaro is very similar in function. |

Today, some manufacturers offer seats with seat bottom extenders...sometimes as much as 3" worth which, for the long-legged, is a helluva LOT. Recaro-equipped T/As (starting with the '80-'81 Pace Cars) had manually adjustable thigh support elements to them. Gen-3 Camaros offered something similar. One of the reasons, I believe, that GM seats are generally "one size fits some/most" is simply because NOTHING fits EVERYONE perfectly. If specialized seating is required, the aftermarket (Recaro, Corbeau, Sparco and others) have EXACTLY something for everyone, in one model or another. "Perfection" co$t$... I had an '06 G6 GT as a driver for awhile. Very good seats in all dimensions (for me) ....for about 4 hours of driving. And then, the seatback side bolsters began to "rub" me the wrong way. I'm a size 40 Tall...not the widest beam...so how someone that's a 42-44-46+ would have lived with those, I don't know... Last edited by LOWDOWN; 01-31-2012 at 09:03 AM. |

CTS-V Recaro is NICE!
I'd like to see a full manual Recaro, for weight savings... Z/28 deserves it

...droppin in to say...hey there, hi there , ho there! ....(can't ya tell I'm bored) Those were some very awesome seats...pricey I imagine, but awesome...I'm a plain wrapper guy though, too fancy and rich for my blood....I like those old Grandma comfy couch type seats from the early 70's, with custom deluxe cloth, like in my 73 Z-28 (I'm a dinosaur, I admit it, stuck in the WAYBAC machine)

I need somebody to post something sane and intelligent.
Preferably about the ZL1....not necessary. Just reassure me there is still some sense online, please. |

This is absolutely, undeniably, logically the most well reasoned argument in existence pertaining to global warming.
Case closed. |
