while I didn't get to actually ride in the GT2, I did sit in it and tried it out for size. Short answer-- the seats are very very comfortable. Probably the best if not the best seats in a street car that I've tried.
Take note that I am not a large person at all, certainly much smaller than the average American or European.
I'd say that the size or "snugness" of the GT2 seats is midway between the clubsport buckets in my GT3 (or what you find in the CGT,) and the old-style (996 Clubsport) GT3 seats in the RT12.
Nice thing about the seats is that they are nicely padded, unlike the 997 GT3 clubsport seats where the padding is very thin.
The clutch is about as heavy as that on the GT3. People I know who have ridden in the car say it is harder than the Turbo, but not quite as hard as the GT3...
I recall someone before asking (it may have been on another forum, i can't remember) for some details on how the seats recline, etc. I took a video of this, which I'll post in a bit...
Cheers!
