Does anybody know about the quality and comfort of these seats? It looks like quite of few of their various models will fit the S2000, and they have quite a selection of both touring and racing seats.

Here's a link to their site: http://www.corbeau.com/brochure/index.shtml

Rick, the Carrera (CR-1) is a very comfortable seat that I had considered purchasing for my MR2-S awhile back. It's slightly broader for big guys like myself (6-4, 240) but for really light weight, the Forza is a better choice though in its original form, is too narrow for anyone usually over 200-lbs. The Forza II is more appropriate size wise but doesn't come with the same color choices. The fit/finish of Corbeau seats is decent for the price and I've heard they are quite comfortable but from a pure racing standpoint, not quite as light as the high-end Sparco or Momo offerings but certainly a respectable choice and better than the V-racing stuff you'll find. Personally, I prefer Velo seats (some models have outragious kevlar and carbon fiber frames) but I don't think many here in the US sell 'em. Decent prices as well.


Good luck!

When I used to own an MR2, I purchased a pair of Corbeau Forza. Not even close to decent seats: when sitting down in them, you can actually feel the frames on your back and butt area . I never installed them and got rid of them.
