There are people that want things others don't...I can see the want/need for both

I hope not! I dont like power seats at all. plus they add quite a bit of weight. When i replaced the seats in the Supra, the driver was power and passenger was non power, and let me tell you the weight difference between them!!

That is all we have right now. I've got a hard copy coming from japan right now, but I'm not expecting it for a month or so. When it arrives I will take high res scans.

Sorry for the thread jack OP.

That would be nice to see - looking forward to that!

Hope not. Manual seats are so much faster, and never break, not to mention powered seats add weight. In a low cost small two seater car focused on weight, I just can't imagine they would include that as a feature.

With that said, I'd like seat heaters... Canada eh

how many times you going to adjust your seat?! I think this option is super unnecassery!

tripjammer · 12-14-2011, 06:31 PM

I can see the need for the power seats...Only if you have people who want to get into the back seat, or if your significant other drivers your FRS\BRZ\86 and messes up the seat position. It could be a bear

to get the perfect

seating position back.

For me...I will be the only driver and people who want to get into the back seat will do so on the passenger side. Once I set my seat position, I aint gonna change it ever! Until the service advisers screw it up

.....LMAO!

I like powered seats and all but the ones I've used are pretty slow, especially for a two door car. Imagine having to wait outside in the cold or rain while everyone waits for the seat to move forward enough for someone to get back there.

I have power seats in my Aristo and the cogs have worn out after 10 years and the seats don't move at all this would've been avoidable if it was manual but the Aristo is a luxury car... 86 is not!

Make sure it's manual seats only!!!
