Which Cars Had The Coolest Factory Seats?

These Recaro seats came specifically in the DC5 Type R, and they’re extreme to say the least. The aggressive bolstering is lined in bright red, and it’s an obvious centerpiece of the interior.

2. Audi RS4

The RS4 seats look incredible. In fact, they’re so cool, cars have been broken into just for the seats, and the quoted cost to replace them has been as high as £19,000.

3. The Murcielago SV

These carbon lined seats are known for being uncomfortable, but when you’re riding in something that looks this good, who cares?

4. Z32 300zx

Known as being a car with many features ahead of its time, the 300zx seats are no exception. Although these aren notorious for bolster wear, the design is one of a kind.

5. BMW M4

These seats are low slung and offer plenty of lateral support. Plus, they light up.

6. RX8

The RX8 is full of allusion towards its rotary power. The seats are well styled, and the rotary shape is too cool not to mention.

7. Otmar Alt

These ones came in MK3 Golfs, and while they’re not cool in the traditional sense of the word, you have to respect their uniqueness. Plus, you could probably spill anything on them and not notice the stain.

What are your favorite factory seats?

It’s just pieces of foam stuck to the chassis

Focus RS Recaros…they don’t look like much but they are unbelievably comfortable

Same as the MINI R56-R59 aftermarket seats :)

They’re just Recaro Sportster CS which you could find in many cars like the Megane and Clio RS or as BMW Performance Seats or you can just buy them at recaro for every car. In fact nothing special to the RS…

Wish the U.S. Model go these..

The Alfa Romeo 8C’s

I have a bias but the seats in my Passat are awesome

Audi and BMW but no Mercedes?

Mitsubishi Evo seats

Beautiful!

also comfortable af

Cool list. I like my ST-3 seats a lot though the RS seats are much cooler.

These look great!

They may not be the prettiest seats, but the leather comfort seats you get in BMW E34 are insanely comfortable.. I’d say they beat most of todays cars.

Buddy with whom I took a roadtrip in a beaten down e34 said these are some solid things. I did not notice that they are that good. But he drives different new cars and said in none of these the journey would be more comfortable. I like the M-Seats more, though.
