Who knows what his body shape is. The 2015 JCW at MilesAhead that I drove had the $1950 seats and I found them to be adequately supportive for spirited use. I'm 5'9" 140#, so most seats aren't narrow enough for me. As reference, I found the Mk6 GTI and Golf TDI seats super supportive, but the Mk7 GTI seats are positively pear-shaped.
A friend of mine in the auto press is quite obese and constantly whines about seats being uncomfortable, yet I don't believe he's ever noted in his writing that he's pushing 4+ bills. I think the takeaway here is; don't rely on the press to comment on seat comfort, as their body types are all over the map.

Good review and I have a few issues with part of it, but it hasn't run me off the JCW manual. I still feel that I have lost some control with the automatic, even the new improved one. Now if it was the new 8-speed I might consider it. But I'll continue my preference with the manual. I'm. It a lover of the dinanica red striped leather either. It looks faded to me and doesn't match the Chili Red or the optional dash red. Then, of course we have the $1950 surcharge that I'm not willing to pay.
