Performance seats
#1
#2
Since no-one else has answered: I think they came out in 2010 or 2011. There are three seat options: sport (10-way adjustment), luxury (16-way adjustment) and performance ('race' style high-back). Here's the features:
Cushion front tilt adjustment
Seat height adjustment
Backrest adjustment
Adjustable, active head restraints (sport and luxury variants only)
Lumbar adjustment
Fore and aft adjustment
Extendable cushion (luxury and performance variants only)
Adjustable side bolsters (luxury and performance variants only)
Seat heating (sport and performance variants only)
Seat heating and cooling (luxury variant only)
Personally, with all of the adjustments available, I've found the 16-way seats are fine, even on the track. I have the side bolsters pumped up, so the seat grips my back and I don't notice any excessive lateral movement through corners. And the cooling is very pleasant when you're getting a bit hot from chucking the beast about. I think the performance seats are mainly cosmetic.
