Have you tried them out? I haven't been able to find them anywhere, just seems like an option that's very hard to find. Would love to at least get a chance to see how they feel. My seats, stock, are really comfortable, but I'm small so they're not snug enough to hold me in place. I've heard good and bad reviews on them.

Also let us with the vert decide if we want them or not! Don't make the decision for us...

I think what she is saying that even finding them at dealers is difficult. Tom Henry had 0 on the lot with Recaros the last three times I've been there.

Basically if its a customer order they're opting for the recaros. If they're the ordering manager orders, they're not opting for them. At least that's the trend I see.

When I was searching in my area to sit in them before I bought a car, it didn't take long to find a couple, it could be a regional thing though. Remember you can look for them on SS's ZL1s and Z28s.

Tom Henry is showing a ZL1 in stock with the Recaros (although sometimes in stock on a web site could be an inbound sold car). Near Plymouth where Normagene is according to the profile, Quirk is showing a Z28 in stock, not sure if they'll let you sit it in or not....

That's where I first test drove a ZL1. I almost bought from there too until he couldn't locate me the right one (red hot, recaros, nav, etc.)

He did call me not too long ago to let me know they had a Blue ray on the lot with recaros and it was literally sold 2 days later lol.

Yea I checked every trim of Camaro that TH had. I Ben checked the dealership where I got my ZL1 and some of the tinier dealerships around where I live now. Haven't had any luck.

That ZL1 wasnt at TH when I was there last. May have to check again.

All Z28's will have them as they are standard in those, But yeah, the others have to get them as an option.

Haven't found a car with them at any of the area dealerships. As soon as I do I will definitely try them out.

To those who have sat in ZL1's Recaro seats, how do they feel compared to stock seats? My Dad has problems sitting and needs a comfortable seat, good cushion. Are Recaro seats way better than stock? Adequate cushion? Is it worth buying a ZL1 with Recaros?

I'm searching for a 2012-13 grey ZL1, sunroof, loaded, etc.

Thx.
