uncomfortable seats was just about the only real problem the car had IMO. But i mean, if you're looking for comfort, you shouldn't be buying a Black Series. All the car really needs is some serious racing slicks once you wear the stock tires out. -- which according to clarkson, won't take long.

And the US cars don't use those seats anyway...they have stock SL seats with different stitching, sans heat/ventilation functions.

my next door neighbour ordered one, but we've heard they're not coming to Canada. That's great if they use the stock SL seats. Seems to me all the car needs is sticker tires so you arent just watching the traction control light blinking every time you mash the throttle.
