Sports are a little stiffer, hold in different places and some people don't like that added thigh supporter.

I agree all the way with m5. I have tan sports seats I just wish I would have held out for comfort seats or did more test driving. Lesson learned.
my teen driver hates the thigh support, wife says its too stiff. I can never get that lumbar right where I need it.

I don't think those are comfort seats. my comfort seats have different headrests and there is a separate switch to adjust it. and the back adjustment has 2 switches too. lower and upper.

What you are describing is what I'm remembering comfort seats to be. The articulated backrest was particularily nice. However, I am one who likes the bolstering and the thigh support of the sport seats even more.

there's a ebay seller out there in the desert. Hes had a pair of black comfort seats for auction for 2 years straight.. he wants 1,600 for em. I looked at them many times and wondered how a tan interior, carpet and all would look like with black seats...
