I am ferociously attracted to the look of the carbon fibre seats in a 355 but having only sat in them once found them a little firm. What are they like for long term ownership/use??

Don't have them, but am told there are 3 sizes, so check the size. I'm big (6'4", long of leg, 16st), and could *just* sit in M seats. Driving long distances, though, would have meant dead arms.

IME with other cars, seats with wings can be a royal pain if they don't fit *just* so. And the std seats are great for long distance with varied size people.

They may look better, but if you get a car with small seats, you're going to be limited resale wise. Even M seats will restrict you.
