AMG performance seats
Thinking of getting the AMG performance seats, what is is like if you are doing a looooong road trip ? I sat in one last year and I felt it was a bit hard (not enough soft cushion material ?) and it was form fitting and nice but not sure about sitting in one for a few hours . Any comment ?

Did a 4 hours round trip over the weekend and they were comfortable. My wife who's all about plushy seats didn't complain one bit either. On long trip, the key is adjusting the lumbar support for your lower back and you're good to go. These seat fit and look amazing, would highly recommend not passing them up.

they're completely fine.
I'm a heavier guy and I drove 4 hours immediately from the factory when I got my car with AMG Performance Seats. It was a bit tight at first, but you get used to it.

I am not worried about the fit. I just felt that it was kind of hard and don't know how bad that would be if sitting for a long time with not much cushion.

I think you'll be fine. I've done several 4 hr trips and they felt good. I've had 2 CLA45's with both seat options. I would definitely recommend the Recaro's. Best seats I've had in a car to date.

I got the regular seats and as a daily driver they are supremely comfortable. Done 8+hour road trips with no issues.
However, they definitely don't look as sporty or offer the support the Recaros will. I would have liked to get them, but I was afraid I would be a little too wide to sit in them comfortably lol

For the looks alone, I may just deal with it.
