    the foldable ones were okay, the 918 ones are stylish but painful.

    I read Lamborghini ones are the worst?

    Agree the 918 buckets are not very good. The 996 and 997's though, are sublime.

    Yep, the Lambo buckets are the worst indeed. Smiley

    Drove a M3 Comp xDrive with bucket seats for a weekend and loved it. Very comfortable, great seats, would never order such a car without them (many still do Smiley).

    the old Recaros from 996 and 997 - in usa were illegal but I imported them from Carnewal, just wonderful.  best ever were Scud and Strad with no lift, the new Ferraris with lifts suck.

    in NZ, the ROW folders in my 991,1 and.2 gt3s were pretty good.

    In for the 2000km maintenance, and also requested to take out the tinted rear windows and replace with clear glass, looks a bit more classy at least.

    Re: 2022 BMW M5 CS

    We once had a 2002 in the family, what a tiny car next to the M5 indecision


    Re: 2022 BMW M5 CS

    The old 2002 with its Alpina wheel arches has more style and charisma than most modern designs from BMW, which is a pity really given the efforts BMW put for advanced technology.

    Congrats on the CS.

    I have 22,500 km on mine and enjoyed every single one of them.

    Not limited in numbers but in production time, think around 1000?

    Looks great, congrats! Sorry for the basic question but how does tint delete work? Is it by the replacement of the glass? I personally don’t like the contrast between the usual front clear/back tinted side glass on cars. I find it kills the design/line of a car.

    Yes, looks horrible on 911s as well, breaks the visual line / consistency…..

    Tint foil??? There is no tint foil. He had to replace the windows (I think).

    I get it...he wants people to be able to see the beautiful sports seats in the back. Smiley

    I actually like the tinted rear windows but I get it why he wanted them removed.

    No unfortunately there's no foil on OEM tinted windows, you do need to replace the glass. Smiley

    My thoughts exactly, I get it (somewhat) on an SUV, but not on a sedan and not at all on sports cars. So many 911's now driving around with tinted rear quarters, why. Smiley

    Absolutely. At the time I asked to keep the rear side windows clear when ordering my GTS and only have the rear window tinted to continue the line created by the glass roof. Not sure if still possible.

    Sorry for the off topic.
