still searching for the best seat position..!!

this sounds crazy, but with the current settings, my s2000 seat with only fore/aft and back recliner actually feels more "right" than my E55 seat with 35135135 different possible adjustments!!

how do u guys like your driving position in the E55? do u try to set the seat as low as possible?? somewhere in the middle?

I'be found 2 perfect modes which I have saved to memory 1 and 2.

Position 1 is spirited driving with a higher seating position, while position 2 is for cruising slow with the windows down.

Position 3 is reserved for girlfriend for when she (very rarely) drives.

Seat position

Gotta say, that the seats are one of my less enthusiastic features...especially since the bladders seem to deflate (maybe my beer belly has something to do with that). Anyway, being 6'2"...I have it back and low; with a near verticle back position....(helps add that relaxed luxury cruiser appearance that tempts the foolish mustang drivers
