I've had lower back issues for years (curvature) and I find the GT3 seats more comfortable on long trips because it holds my upper back in place.
Although with the Fabspeed exhajust long highway trips of 2 hours are out of the question unless I bring my V-modas M100s (great headphones).

I also had a NA Miata. I should have kept it as my track/autox car...biggest mistake ever selling it for a mere $5,500.
I had KYB AGX adjustables and FM mounts, smoother ride than my Boxster.

Nice Miata! Much fancier than mine was...

I had a '94 R with a bunch of upgrades, mostly go/turn/stop stuff. Nothing for looks

I wish I fit better in the GT3 seats...unfortunately after trying them a couple of times, it's clear I don't.

I need to find a car with sport seats and see if they are sufficiently improved.
