if you are coming from a truck or a luxury vehicle well ya i could understand the differences; s2k's seats werent too impressive to me; i have driven a 2002 s2k and it seemed similiar to the miata's to me
overall to each their own opinion which is why we have a forum; to me the seats are fine, not great but livable; i am in love with my car though; so bear (bare?) that in mind. my opinions are certainly biased

Funny you should mention the Miata - I got a 1st year Miata in 1990 then the S2000 in 2000 and now the 370Z in 2010. Looks like I am on the new car every ten years plan. I wanted to get a coup for this decade, getting too much sun. The Miata seats were fine, basic but very comfortable.
Everybody is shaped a little differently. I am short at 5’6” and about 165ish. With the unmodified seat, it felt too soft and my butt sank in between the rails and they dug into the sides of my legs. It was like the springs were disconnected or the padding was missing. Not a hold you tight sorts car feel, more of a homeless person feeling.
