Yeah, I have loved the Cobra Misano ever since I first saw it 6 years ago. But, now I'm actually gonna pull the trigger and get them. Can you post some pics of yours in this thread? I would love to see some real pics instead of the itty-bitty pics on the posted on website store pages.

I sat in Josh's car and hated his seats. They really squeezed my legs together to tight. Josh is skinny so they are fine for him. Moral of the story, sit in your seats first if possible.

Edit: What he said.^ lol

Have you actually sat in both, checked adjustments and rear vision? Some seats fit better for some people than others, and if you're not happy with the fit/convenience then you might be looking to replace them later on. Also, you may be able to get some things like fitment adjusted if you install them for a while and try them out.

I added Corbeaus to mine and have a couple minor things to get used to like seat adjustment, and it is a little snug. The seats I swapped out before weren't as comfortable as I kept reading about. They were nice, just didn't work for me. Seats sometimes make the entire car seem different.

I have Corbeau's now. I just want something different. As previosuly mentioned, I wanted this seat way back when I bought the Corbeau's. I just didn't feel like spending $1500/per seat when I got the pair of Corbeau's for $1500 total.

If that's what you've wanted all along then by all means do so. I was only relaying my experience with both the Corbeaus and the previous seats. Both were different than I had expected.

We have done a tone of Chevelle and the Recaro is the most comfortable in that car by far. We also make a rear matching seat if you are interested along with Door panels and a center console. You could do your complete interior in one place. We can even wrap them for you or you can send it to your guys to do all that. Give us a call 480-748-2000
