I've previously stated that the BRZ seats were OK but now that I've driven longer distances this has proved to be false.

I have a rutured L4-5 and the BRZ is starting to really bother it. I already have numbness in my left foot...makes feeling the clutch hard sometimes.

Now I get more numbness and pain in my foot and my lower back is really acting up.

My GTI is much better in this respect. I find myself giving thoughts to selling the BRZ now...
