Nice seats, Love the Cobra emblem. If I tried to sit my fat azz in those seats my legs would go numb and I couldn't walk for a week.

Cloth seats are thin and don't hold the heat. Leather holds the heat and when you jump into a leather seat when it 100 degrees or more where the car has been sitting in the sun even wearing a pair of jeans you will be jumping around for a few seconds trying to stay off them. They are also colder in the winter. I love leather seats but they have their drawbacks.

Do your clear corner markers make your car any faster?

The answer involves simple physics based on the conductive properties of a certain material. I learned in 10th grade that a piece of steel at 100* feels hotter than a piece of wood at 100* because steel is much more conductive than wood, meaning the heat in the steel with transfer from it to your flesh much quicker than the heat from the wood to your flesh. If you don't believe me, lay a piece of steel and a block of wood out in the hot sun and after about an hour, go out and put you hand on each of them at tell me wich one "feels" hotter. That is why cloth seats don't burn your butt like leather or vinyl will... then factor in the better breathability of a cloth seat. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE your seats, but they DO have a drawback. I wasn't trying to rain on your parade, just making a point. And BTW, yes, I DO wear shorts and when you say, "If that's your thing" you make it sound like a BAD thing. LOL. I think people who wear long pants in 85* weather are just plain wierd... are you afraid to show your legs?
