Why leather seat bottom different on driver and passanger

Evryone:

Today i noticed after 3 months of owning my 2009 370z sports package touring that the bottoms of the leather seats on the driver and the passenger are different as it pertains to the leather pattern. The driver has a V like shape pattern between your legs where the passenger seat bottom does not. Any reason for the difference? Just wondering.

Loving my 370Z,

Ian B

Maybe it's because of the additional friction caused by shifting an MT tranny. Better for longevity's sake?

It was designed to hold the driver in place better.

I wish this was an episode of Family Feud, so we could see the answer board spin showing the point values of our answers! "SURVEY SAYS", DING (*canned audience applause*)!

Yup, better support around the thighs. The 350Z had the same too.

Its for your testicles because we all know the ladies belong in the passenger seat

Well if it was designed with mine in mind...it should be concave..not convex!
