Thanks, but I haven't decided what I am going to do yet. I'm still exploring my options to mitigate my financial losses as much as possible. If I do get another car, it will be new or a very low mileage used car.

Those seats are $950 a piece. I don't think they have adjustable lumbar support and I'ld lose an airbag. Even if I get a great seat I still think the ride of the car is simply to harsh for me and I am not willing to start messing around with the suspension.

They dont have lumbar support but they are much better than the stockers no back pain since installing it.

You find the stock suspension stiff?? Really i felt it too soft for my taste i switched to coilovers because of the amount of roll i would feel on the corners.
