I wouldn't My dream gm car would be the 2011 z06 carbon. Same as the zr1 except for the engine. If you but a supercharger on 7.0 you would make easy 750 hp with little modifications.

The available factory chrome spyder wheels made for the Z06 look better.

I hate to contribute to a jacked thread but........

OMG that thing is BEAUTIFULL!

Might have to have something like that one day when the kids are out of the house.

This has been discussed many times before - do a search.

This is normal and seems to happen to the boney-assed among us. The fat arses don't seem to have the same issue. What is happening is that the leather is stretching and not coming back like it did when new. You can simulate this by simply leaning on the seat with your hand and you will leave a stretched area. This usually reforms tight again within 5 minutes, but if the leather has been dried out (using the seat heater a lot, or baking in the sun with out a sun shield), it may not come back.

This can be prevented or slowed down by continually applying a leather prtector to keep the leather supple. I do once a month, but some do more often. I use Zaino leather protector.

Don't kneel on the seat, lol.

SSOOCH · 10-27-2010, 04:38 PM

yeah, I'd say that your seat is all stretched out like that because you have a small boney ass. My ass is huge so My seats look just fine

Honestly... I expected the possibilities ass to why this is happening to be a LOT dirtier.

shockandawe · 10-27-2010, 06:01 PM

That's just what fine Corinthian leather does!

shockandawe · 10-27-2010, 06:08 PM

A simple solution would be to get an assectomy,where they inject cologin in you ass cheeks to pump them up and get rid of that boney look!
