Other things to consider that I think favor the base seats for a daily driver are.....getting in and out is easier....with the Recaros I was always trying to avoid wearing out the bolsters....and for any passengers, the base seats will be better and you don’t have to worry about them crushing the bolsters. The darker color fabric of the base will be easier to maintain and possibly hide any stains. When I had the molten orange Recaros I was careful to cover up the rear seat if I had to carry stuff, pets etc. If I could have found a nice used FIST with Recaros at the right price, I would have bought it. I bought my 2016 with 10,000 miles for $16,100.
