Driver's seat

I have about a 2 hour round trip commute to and from work each day. Does anyone else find the 2010 TSX seats a bit uncomfortable? The sides of the base of the seat are fairly hard which is fine for short drives, but for longer commutes it can get pretty annoying and painful on the sides of the legs. I drive a stick, any suggestions on seat positioning that might alleviate sciatic pain, etc.? Anyone else have these issues?

Other than that, I completely love the car.

I'm 6'2" 170lbs. After about a half hour the sides of my legs start hurting...I've tried to change the seating position but haven't found the right one yet it seems.

i'm 5'8" 175lbs and the seats are fine to me as well. Just went on a 1200 mile road trip and have no complaints about the seats. I'm not gonna say, however, that they're comfortable for everyone

I'm 5'8" and around 175 as well, seats feel good to me. It did take a little while adjusting them, but once I had them adjusted to how I like, they felt great.

6'2" 250lbs here, and I think they are pretty darn comfy. Longest drive so far has been about an hour and a half (only ~1,600 miles so far). I have my seat set so the bottom of the seat is all the way down in the back, and all the way up in the front. lumbar is about 40% engaged, and the seat back is tilted about 100^ from the plane of the seat bottom. I also have the steering wheel pulled all the way toward me with it tilted up so that I can still put my hand around the wheel and turn it so my hand just barely misses brushing against my leg.
