No way!

That sounds dangerous cause like shouldn't you be driving..? XD Cruise control the whole way

I find the seats comfortable but I haven't been on a crazy long drive. Did do a 2hr drive and I think that I may need more lower back support if the drive was much longer

EDIT: Just reread it I get yea you just slept in the seat haha my mistake

How big are you guys? I love the seats, but i can't see myself passing out in them for an extended period of time. lol

I have actually experienced some back pain after I drive my FR-S.. At first I thought it was just for sleeping the wrong way, but then I realized otherwise. I drive another car Mon-Thurs or Fri and I'm feeling good by Wednesday, then it starts back up the day after I start driving again. But I believe it's because I have VERY broad shoulders. Still worth it though.

Fortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to try sleeping in the front seats yet... Maybe I'll get that golden opportunity if my wife ever decides to kick me out of the house for any odd reason... Hehe!

gmanculb · 11-27-2012, 10:48 PM

I'm 6'2" and about 190lbs. The seat fits me perfect. Taken 3 long trips now and have t had any discomfort.

I haven't gotten to the point where I've been tired enough to sleep in the car, but I agree the seats are comfy!

carbonBLUE · 11-28-2012, 12:05 AM

Considering my build, 5'10 175lbs I'm extremely comfortable, love that i can sleep at a rest stop on long trips

axss · 11-28-2012, 12:20 AM

5'10 160. I am very comfortable in these seats are amazing its probably the second thing everyone mentions after getting a ride. First being nice car.

Havnt taken a nap in them yet but now Im tempted. Maybe in the summer after the beach.
