Did the guy re-finished his seats with tan leather? I'm pretty sure they don't come like that form the factory.

According to Recaro, they do have full beige leather seats. I can't find another picture, but its most likely the same one as above. Who knows though. All I know is that I'm going to be getting the black one if I can find an awesome deal. Should be a good for 100lb of weight shedding

coco-bun has it right.
i sat in the front seat of a 3gs once. The leather felt very stiff compared to my 2gs. The lap support seems to be about the same as 2gs (too short), but anyways, you'll need the 3gs seat rails and most likely retrofit it into your 2gs. Connector harness should be different as well so you'll need to retrofit that.
I see what you mean. Usually when people talk about Lexus seats they refer to the quality and comfort, not the support that it gives when you push the car.
i always thought the lan evo recaro's are really nice, too bad it won't look right without some other changes in our interior.

well, depends on what car you are talking about i guess. if the same seats are on the ls460l, i would be cursing every day. but for a sport sedan, i think they are good. i always found myself very stupid trying to hold on to things when i push the gs400 around the corners
and comparing the 3gs seats to 5 series and e class? i still think it's still pretty comfortable

My seat was killing me when I first got the car. I was wondering what did Lexus mean when they talk about luxury. I had it restuffed by local shop. It's better now. However, I still think for its class, the seat should be a lot better.

i hate 3gs seats, it gives me back pain..they are not as comfy as the 2gs..but how about if you can find some ls430s seats and try to fit them in 2gen, i duno if that would work but ls430s seats are the best!
