I don't see any need for adaptive seats, tho I am sure they are awesome.

BTW, I have a 46 inch chest, too, and they fit fine across the shoulders

A HUGE deal for me with the adaptive sport seats is having the memory functions (along with the many adjustable postions, lumber bladders and bolsters) in a very aggressively bolstered seat. I hate having to manually find my perfect seating postion and mirror settings after my wife drives our WRX or Expedition. My AMG spoiled me to this function.

If your car is a "one driver" car and you track or autocross I'd recommend the regular sport seats Chris mentions.

BTW...The adaptive seats are so nice for me it feels therapeutic every time I sink into them.
