I've had them both. The Comfort Seats are preferable only if you require an articulating mid-back adjustment. With that one exception, the Sport Seats are ALL OVER the Comfort Seats, IMO.

Yea, but I find the comfort seats plenty supportive while much more comfortable on long trips. I guess it is just they way I sit. The bolsters on the bottom end up being a pain in the thigh. What would be nice is a hybrid of the comfort and sport seats.

Also remember, you are driving a LUXURY automobile.

I have the comfort seats which I love (and so do my passengers). I would however like a little more side bolster for spirited driving. Long distances on the freeway however are where comfort seats shine IMO.

What about the normal 4.4 seats? I dont think they are sport seats. What are they? I like the 4.4 Normal seats soft but still hard !

I hate the sport seats! The bolsters are too high, I only wish I could have found a car with Comfort Seats. The (standard) seats on my '04 3.0 were much better and didn't show nearly the signs of wear that the sports are with the side bolsters.
Maybe my ass is just too big...
