They haven't have a Z51 in the better part of half a decade. Like said, the seats are re-designed for '12 as well. Also, a set of seats isn't a big deal, won't void a warranty, and won't cost an arm and a leg.

Yes, and the 370Z will be "Collegemobile 5000". All cars will now be named after their stereotypical demographic, lol.

Part of the reason kids have 370Z's and older people or older kids like myself (at 25, I consider myself a kid compared to many) have Z06's and whatnot is because of income (or lack), not because one was designed for a certain age. It was designed for a certain income-level. The target median income of the average Z06 owner in 2006 was $130K according to GM's market study before releasing the car per their sales DVD that I lucked into buying from someone on another forum (Dealer item only).

About seats...



vs.



I'm really not seeing anything extraordinary about either. You will note, though, the HIGHER BOLSTERS on the corvette seat.

The only OEM seats on cars under $100K I can think of that are full of win for the track are in the Viper.
