Interesting, I am really liking the look of them, I dont see corolla when I look at them at all.

Also throwing my vote in for keeping the stock seats. Without any knowledge of the sard ones, make sure they don't restrict the airbag

Not that I know of. I've never get kicked out. I always have my PC w web browser up w forum, but never kicked out.



Yeah, it's good bang for buck for sure. Tbh not sure I wanna do anything w Mustang, other than make sweet V8 exhaust sound and make it into nice cruise car... but realistically speaking, I like BRZ more than mustang. That's why I bought BRZ... but might be fun, if I had extra $$$
Yeah I basically went through the same thought process. I test drove it just to make sure raw TQ wasn't what I really wanted in a car. I mean sure everyone wants it but the better handling made more sense to me in a daily driver since at my 35k cap I placed on myself you can't get both. Plus it's probably easier to supercharge a BRZ than make a pig corner, lol. And besides fun in the turns in usually a much lesser fine than 150/55 nowamean.

what else can I do to change up the feel of the interior? I am all about the feel of everything haha. Part of me wants a roll bar and racing seats, but the other part wants to keep it feeling "classy" or "luxurious"

A shift knob will help if you don't already have one

edit: have you seen the brainiac head unit?

If that's the case, go with Bride Stradia or TRD recline seat (same thing). You'll love it! At least I did.

They just look chubby to me. Like fat boy seats that belong in a larger car (sedan, mustang, camaro, etc.). Don't get me wrong, I like the design but not the fit. If they were the exact fit/dimensions of the factory seat, I'd love them.

Edit: Minus the SARD Racing stitching.
