They just came back to me and said they will replace the seat covers on warranty.

So that's cool, isn't it?
Ohhhhh ........ be careful ......... now that they will have you in the dealership ....... they will try to sell you a NEW car ......

No, but it is proper rear wheel drive, and apparently has a suspension tuned for the grass track based on this description.
