Is Your Boxster Comfortable?

drove to vegas and back to san diego for a flight and it was not the business. seats were comfy for the first hour then they got tired and it felt like i was sitting on a bean bag made of cement... albeit, i usually have that problem with long drives. did a mountain run with the local miata club and those seats were the business, comfy all day, even after having to slow down at the pass where a miata flew off the side of the mountain.

In the Porsche performance driving school and subsequent Autocross races I learned that when driving hard a more close in seat position is actually less strain
and more comfortable over longer periods that my usual laid back, arms length position.

You sit closer and more upright with your elbows bent at the 3 and 9 positions and its surprisingly more comfortable when you are driving the twisty's.

I have become accustomed to it now and drive that way on the daily commute as well.

At 5'11" and 220lbs the seat fits like a glove and I feel one with the car.

I am 6 feet 200 lbs with 33 inch inseam. I have settled on a very comfortable seat position. In virtually every other car I start to get pain in the back of my right thigh after about 2 hrs of driving facilitating the need to stop and stretch my leg on long drives.
I have found that does not happen with the Box. It might be the seat position or the lack of resistance on the accelerator pedal who knows. I had the problem with my 330i Mini Cooper,Audi A4, SAAB and even my wife's R series Benz. So for me the Boxster is one of the most comfortable cars that I have owned!
