Until now, I\u2019d always said, <strong>\u201cReally? I find them perfectly comfortable.\u201d<\/strong> But recently, when I got to drive the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/entry\/panamera-gts-testdrive-2005\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Panamera GTS with its 18-way electric adaptive sport seats<\/a>, I noticed how thick and enveloping those seats felt\u2014extremely comfortable.  <\/p>\n<p>After experiencing that, I realized our Panamera\u2019s seats do feel a bit thin and firm in comparison.  <\/p>\n<p>He said,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">When it comes to driving, <strong>seats are a crucial factor<\/strong>. Especially for me, since I often do long-distance touring, the seat really affects how tired I feel.<br \/>\nWe chose the standard 14-way seats on our Turbo without much thought back then, but now I regret not going for the 18-way seats.<br \/>\n<strong>The 14-way seats have thinner cushions and no matter how I adjust, my back never quite fits right.<\/strong> So personally, they don\u2019t feel right and I get tired more easily. Of course, this depends on your body shape too.<\/p>\n<p>I see&#8230;  <\/p>\n<p>When I asked, <strong>\u201cHow about the seats in the GT3?\u201d<\/strong>, he replied,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">Our GT3 has the adaptive sport seats plus (electric 18-way), but <strong>ideally, I wanted the full carbon bucket seats.<\/strong> They look incredible and are only available on special models, so they\u2019re quite rare. However, <strong>the carbon bucket seats are very upright and don\u2019t recline at all<\/strong>, so you can\u2019t lean back to rest during long tours.<br \/>\nConsidering that, I chose not to get them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18373\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_00014-800x450-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/>  <\/p>\n<p>He continued,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">I also thought the standard sport seats plus might be fine, but <strong>I wanted the interior stitching to match the exterior color, Crayon.<\/strong> To do that, you have to select the Leather Package along with the adaptive sport seats plus.<br \/>\nIf you don\u2019t choose the Leather Package, you can\u2019t pick the stitching color.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18372\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_00016-800x450-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/>  <\/p>\n<p>Porsche options really are complicated&#8230;  <\/p>\n<p>By the way, regarding the <strong>feature that lets you move the passenger seat from the driver\u2019s side in the Panamera<\/strong>, the standard seats on the Panamera, Panamera 4, Panamera 4S, Panamera 4 Executive, and Panamera 4S Executive do not support this. You have to choose at least the <strong>14-way memory electric seats (front seats) option<\/strong> to get it.  <\/p>\n<p>Wow&#8230; so complicated, haha.  <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">Seats and Tires Are Very Important for a Car<\/h3>\n<p>About the importance of car seats, my husband said,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\"><strong>I believe the two most important parts of a car are the tires and the seats.<\/strong> Tires are the only parts that contact the ground, so they\u2019re extremely important. They directly affect ride comfort and handling, yet many people don\u2019t pay attention to tire pressure or brand.<br \/>\n<strong>Seats are the part where the human body connects most directly with the car.<\/strong> They\u2019re vital for safety and comfort. If the seat is thin or doesn\u2019t fit your body, you get tired quickly, and in emergency maneuvers, if the seat can\u2019t hold your body properly, it\u2019s dangerous.<br \/>\nNowadays, seats have improved a lot, but if you think about the thin, flat bench seats in older kei cars, it\u2019s hard to avoid something quickly because your body gets pushed by lateral G-forces and you can\u2019t steer as intended.<br \/>\nWhen choosing a car, it\u2019s good to consider safety features, but <strong>before that, you need to check the seat\u2019s quality carefully.<\/strong> It\u2019s directly linked to safety and comfort.<\/p>\n<p>Makes a lot of sense.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17146\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17146\" class=\"size-large wp-image-17146\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_0048-1280x854.jpg\" alt=\"Standard seat of Nissan Note NISMO S\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-17146\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Standard seat of the Nissan Note NISMO S.
