Anyone upset at Honda for the poor seat design?

I have the same problem with the seats. The problem is much worse with my 03 Accord LX. I just test drove the 09 Acura TSX, and the seats felt much worse. TL seats are a bit better. I think that the Honda seats in general do not fit me well. Still, S2000 felt the best among all Honda/Acura seats I've tried. I have issues only if I drive longer than 3 hours...

On the other hand, Nissan seats fit great. I could ride 7 hours in my old Altima SE without any issues what so ever. I test drove the 350Z, G35 and M45; and they all felt great.

I don't think it is a quality issue, but more of a choice of design issue.

Seats are VERY important. I was thinking about replacing the Accord with the new TSX, but won't happen. I would not get the S2000 if the seats were any worse. I guess I will replace the Accord with a Nissan or Infiniti product...

If by poor you mean awesome and fantastic, absolutely!

true sport cars should fit like a glove.


back in 1999 I sat in the s2k at a car show for 15 mins. . I could not help but laugh at all the fools ( all of them ) who sat next to me and left saying the car sux because its too small.

idiots. they probably drive SUVs today.
