Maybe it's a V6 vs. GT thing. But there is absolutely no padding in the bottom cushion. Your butt falls asleep after 1.5 hours or so.

Or maybe it has something to do with the aftermarket seat heaters.

The bottom seat cushion is low density foam and too thin. The GT and V6 seats are almost identical. I can feel the springs in the bottom of the seat with the cloth interior after about 25 minutes, and I only weight about 200 lb. The leather is a little better, but the seat comfort is keeping me from purchasing another GT. The SN95 has a better bottom seat cushion.
