I'm looking into an 05 and found one with the 'Sport Adaptive' seats. It appears that the upper portion of the seat had bolsters around the shoulders but are there any other things to know about them vs. regular seats. (the car is about 800mi from me...)

I have the sport seats in my 99 but I think that they are different from the Sport Adaptive seats you are looking at. The sport seats are great, in my opinion. They have great support and do a good job of holding you in place without 'wearing' them.

I have the Sports Seats in my 996 and my wife has standard seats in her Boxster. We have had our cars for going on 4 years and respectively. We have both riden in or driven both cars several hundred miles in just a few days while traveling and my wife has said several times that the Sports Seats in my Carrera are the most comfortable seats she has ever sat in. I have to agree with her on this. We have had a couple of Jags and her daily driver is an '06 Lexus RX 400h which is fairly comfortable. I like the way Sports Seats look, especially with the backs finished in the body color and the ability to show them off in a Cab. They will be a "must have" in my next Porsche.

Mine is an 02 with leather sport seats and they are really comfortable....and I'm a big old guy.

Ask him for a pic.

Here are mine. lousy pic, but you can see the bolsters.

BTW, they may have a manual seat adjustment w/power backs.

I have sport seats and they are great for track use. You have

a great picture but the fire extinghisher is under the wrong seat.
