Little update on my order (I'm becoming little impatient, lately):
I also order the Performance seats, and the dealer will install them once they receive the car and take care of everything. I'll import the car to Turkey with the Performance seats on. I then take care of the standart seats.

Those performance seats look AMAZING !! they will change the look of the car a lot, make it feel a lot sportier and with more attitude.
Me thinks so exactly, this is why I ordered them. Besides, I have racing seat (well, they are not pure racing buckets but anyway) fetish
Interior of the E92 M3 is the only place where I don't like much about. The standart seats are too lux. looking, idrive screen looks like as if it is glued to top of the dash, I like E46 M3 dials and gear lever (SMGII vs. DKG lever in the middle) more. Only thing I like is the carbon leather texture trim. I hope to like the interior of the car more as I start using the car.
On a side note, BMW performance seats are basically the same as the ones I had in my TTS; both are derivative of Recaro CS (or SC) seats:

Its perfect !!! the sports seats look amazing on the car, on the first pic the silver details on them contrast beautifully with the white. Cant wait to see more pics.
Can't wait for the delivery
The seats are very important for me. They are perfect size for me. A little heavier than expected but lighter than standart seats

Very very attractive car. Looks great in white with the dark roof and the bonnet intakes
I hope girls don't find the Performance Seats too hard and uncomfortable
Thank you Reginos,
At least, it is German
I'm lucky that my girl friend is 47 kg ~100 lbs so she will be ok with the seats.
She was comfortable in my TTS seats which were basically the same seats.

AlexG:
Great spec! Love the wheels and the seats.
I'm very interested in hearing your opinion on the seats once you've properly used them
Alex,
I'm sure I'll love the seats since I had virtually the same seats in my Audi TTS.
They are comfortable and these are in alcantara finish which I like more.
