Had them in my 2009 4S and didn't care for them. The seat seemed uncomfortable, they were more difficult to clean, and I didn't use them that often.

I think seats are personal -- worth trying a few out. Im 6'3" and with a long torso, and about 195 lbs... the ventilated seats fit me well and the bolsters are good / form around me just right.

One thing worth mentioning...the ventillation feature works best with light fabric clothes... i use it when out on a hot day in shorts... not going to do much if you have heavy jeans on...

The single best option of many good ones on my 2011 Cayman.
