the new seats seems to sit higher than the old version?!? they are pretty much flush with the hoops!

The seats and rims don't look as terrible as everyone makes them out to be.

It's strange... the old seats look incredible... the new seats, while not as "racy", somehow works for me too... gives the S an injection of maturity and sophistication to bring it upscale a notch.

Just look at the 06 brochure. Red/black leather available on Silverstone only.

I like the new rims better than the 04 and 05.

I agree completely. I'm not completely sold on either one, but neither would be my reasoning for not buying the car. I need to see the wheels in person I think to determine whether I really like them, but they don't disgust me by any stretch.

The seats don't look as good as the old ones, IMO, but again, they're not as bad here as they were in the brochure.
