sport seats for the 850? was there such a thing? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be jordanvw@aol.com on  Sat Jun 16 15:29 CST 2007 [RELATED]

ok my last car was an Audi...and thats really the only thing that i miss about the audi..it had the sport seats (big side bolsters) when i bought my 855R thats the only thing that really bothered me..the lack of sport seats..
the R's have the cool looking black/alcantera seats..but theyre just fancy seatcovers on the regular 850 seats..
i find that my left knee is always resting on the doorpanel when i drive.. it drives me nuts.. with the sport seats in the audi my leg/thigh was supported and didnt fall out against the doorpanel.. im 6ft tall and the seat is all the way back.
i found a '98 V70 in a junkyard with the black leather interior.. the seats didnt look any more supportive though so i passed on them.. was there ever a sport seat offered for the 850? or have any of you adapted any other front seats into your 850's? Recaros would be nice...but i dont want to lose the SIPS..or the heated seats..

any ideas??? i really miss my sport seats!
