Agree totally!

The LWBS are great and if you use some of the aftermarket inserts you have great options for comfort and style...

If you track the car you WANT the LWBS, trust me, I have the basic 4 ways on my GT3 and every time on the track I wish I had the LWBS.....

Cheers!

Also realize a GT4 allocation does not automatically convert to a GTS allocation. So if you change your mind, you are back to chasing allocations.

EE did some aero comparison between two models.
To me, if I only do casual track days, GTS4.0 should be sufficient.

BUY THE GT4

Won't they let him trade someone for a GTS allocation? I assume the GT4 line is longer and there might be someone in the GTS queue who would love to swap. Or maybe they don't allow those sorts of hijinks.

Ugh, now you have me rethinking the seats. I thought I had made that choice. Haha

I am under the impression that GTS allocations are just as hard to come by as GT4/Spyder allocations....I have heard that they may even be harder to come by. And like you said, not sure they would allow it. And you would have to find someone willing to do it even so.

My SA told me changing to a GTS would not be a problem. I am not in a hurry and would like to do Euro delivery next spring. I was told this would be no problem for a GTS. With the GT4 I would likely end up with a winter delivery so Euro delivery is not appealing.

GTS 4.0 MY 2022 also available in Shark Blue BTW. My BGTS 4.0 is MY 2021 and will be daily driver so I opted for the little “softer” car with the electric top and more options for daily use. Plus getting a Spyder allocation would’ve been next to impossible You can’t go wrong either way so go with your heart not your head.

If you have the opportunity, definitely try to sit in and get a quick drive in the LWBS. I was convinced I wanted them, and I fit great, but getting in and out is more involved than I expected.

As always, it depends on the primary purpose of the car.

I was able to test sit in a car at the dealer but not able to drive a car with the seats. Felt comfortable to me but driving longer distance would be the only way to know.

Typically I like to sit low/pretty far back due to long arms/legs. From things I have read I would probably like them and could add parts to recline the seat slightly.

Do cars with the LWBS typically sell at a premium to base seats? It's easier to swallow the 6700k increase if it is a money in/out situation. Likely going to keep the car a long time. I had my Vette for 7 years so not planning to flip the car a year or two later.

if resale value matters i think the buckets do make a difference, they seem to be a more desirable option in general so i think those generally sell faster than ones with the base seats.

seats are hard cause every person is different, but fwiw my first two days of driving the car i had ~6.5hr long drives. pretty chill just gathering up miles for break in. I did stop a couple times but honestly just cause I wanted to take photos not because i felt like i needed to get out of the seats. for me at least the buckets are incredibly comfortable, zero complaints. sure they're a bit harder to get in out of vs regular seats, but it doesn't bother me at all, but again its all relative to each person so if you're worried it'd be best to try them in person [and maybe also have your fiancé try them since her opinion is probably also valuable in making the decision?]
