Recaro Lumbar support?

Basic question. Is there adjustable lumbar support with the Recaro seats?
Thanks

No adjustable lumbar support. Although the seats felt pretty supportive to me.

I sat in the same seats (only leather covered) in the 2012 GT500. They are very supportive despite lacking adjustable lumbar. I think that you'll be pleased with the Recaros in the Boss.

Mine isn't either. Must be 20 years of orthopedic abuse at the hands of the USMC.

Maybe you should get an army/navy surplus Phantom ejection seat and put it in!

Mine too, too bad because two back operations have left me always using the support all the way out. Sounds like a young mans car only us old guys can afford

Yeah, us old guys buying race cars. It's on the Bucket List. Bad back part of the catapult and carrier landing stresses.

3 years and 2 days to 50, so you are not alone

My first back surgery was when I was 24, an older women decided it was quicker not to look both ways at a stop sign. Had it not been for a Mack truck a few feet from the intersection she would been have correct

You guys are youngsters. Did you have to get permission from your mom's to buy a Boss?

Hey guys, and gals, if any here, we're buying this car because we like to operate at the "edge of the envelope" regardless of background. The mind is willing and hopefully the flesh is not weak.
