Default 2011 Seats

The seats in my 2011 Corvette seem more supportive and less flimsy than the seats in my previous 2008 vet. Did Corvette make any changes to the 2011 seats or do they just seem better since they are new?

I'll bet it's just the new foam that has not broken in yet...

I had the same thought about firmer seats on the 2011 when I drove back from the museum last week in a new GS. Much better than my 08, but then again the foam is new and not broken in yet.

Well, the headrest area is definitely new.
But the rest of the seat is said to be the same, wonder if that's really true.

I thought my 2011 GS seats were much better too..... My 2009 only had 4300 miles so I doubt they were beat down. I'll chalk it up to my 2011 being a 1lt & not having all the lumbar gadets. Whatever it is I like 'em better.
