I'd recommend you do to somewhere with a selection and sit your arse in them.

the sparco pro 2000 are lovely seats and hold you very well but they dont come cheap. but i wouldnt like to use them for daily use as they become uncomfortable after long periods as do most buckets , if you do lots of road and some track get recliners they are more comfy and allow you to move some more.

also if you bigger than average you might need to look at some xl seats as fattys generally wont fit in a std bucket comfortably.

ive got a set of sparco torino's in my 5.. great seat, well comfy on long journeys and really supportive when you need it to be.;) not cheap though..

I had some Misano S' in the CRX and they were horrible. They really hurt my back, were hard and uncomfortable and fell apart quickly - they were custom made leather and alcantara :(

I would get some buckets for my 5 but those standard seats are so damn comfty!lol
