Yeah..Yeah..Yeah...we are never satisfied. My latest rant...let us have the Recaro labelled Recaro seats that quattro GmbH offers. I have seen pics of them...and absolutely think that it is necessary at this time. For the record...I would much rather have these euro S4 seats with non-memory function...than have the existing US S4 seat "with" memory. Therefore, style and fit is more important than convenience, in respect to seats.

Ok...I'm done now.

Me too. Do-dads and features do not sell this car. Form and function does.

Default Not only that Steve, but they have them dang Euro S4 seats with manual adjustments!

The electric seats take up so much vertical space because of the motors, that even the Recaro's may not be that beneficial.

So, give us the option of manual and electric seats. What's so hard about that. I KNOW they have them in the S4/S6 in Europe.

BTW, Steve, you can buy those Recaros at $2000/seat (DM 4000) in leather, interior matching code, with Airbag (reason it is so expensive, besides being OEM)
