Driver's seat changes after 06?

I just got an 07' tsx loaner today, and it has a much more comfy seat than my 06. I don't think they've changed the design of the seat since the 06 model, so my bet is that my discomfort with my 06 seat has to do with it not being broken in that much yet. The 07 loaner has probably seen a lot of use over its 12,000 miles, and the seat spring in the back are nice and comfy. What do you guys think? Have the seats changed at all since 06? I'm thinking about putting some weight on the back of my seat when it is all the way reclined in order to get it broken in quicker. My 06 has 14k miles, but it all feels brand new, as if the previous owner barely used the damn thing. I think I just need to wear in the back of the seat more so t hat the springs give.

I've heard that they changed the seats a little bit on the 06 model compared to the 04/05 models.

Not sure. Haven't tried an 07, but my 06 has about 20,000 miles on it and the seats are pretty comfortable and supportive to me. ymmv

No clue. All I know is the 06+ years have more supportive seats than the 04/05s.

I had an 05 loaner when my 06 was in the shop a while ago. I've noticed the 05 seats were a little more narrower and the side bolsters squeeze my ribs more; which was uncomfortable for me.

Acura didn't list the (slightly) modified seats as one of the upgrades to the 06 models. They could of change the seats or the materials for 07. More than likely, the seats are probably in different break in periods.

I'm betting they're using the same seats from 06-08. I can't confirm of course. Anyone else have an 06 loaner that seemed to have different seats from their 07 or 08?

Personally I think the seats of my 06 tsx are very comfortable even on our 20 state road trip last May (6,177 miles). We are doing another road trip this may. NC to CA.
