seats and headrests
Is it just me, or does anyone else hate these new headrests? They come so far forward that they block visibility on the passenger side. On mine, I raised it all the way up just to keep it from giving me a kink in my neck. Does anyone know if I can get a replacement? Also, why is the first position in the seatback adjustment so far forward. Really makes it tough gettin in with an armload of stuff. Can this be adjusted?

RE: seats and headrests
The headrests are positioned very weird but they are surprisingly comfortable. The seats are also very comfortable and have tons of foot room. Sorry to hear you are having those problems though.

RE: seats and headrests
I agree they are rather comfortable even though headrests were never really designed for comfort. They were intended to help prevent neck injuries in the result of a rear ender. But now I guess the auto maker realized we like to lean back against them as well.

RE: seats and headrests
I have to agree the rest of u's. My car before the stang was an Audi Allroad. After a couple hours of driving I would develop a pain in my legs. (as opposed to my A$$). Anyway, I have not had any leg pain driving the Stang. I think the car is very comfortable to drive. I'm a rather large individual and I was expecting the worst. When the new 94 stangs came out I was all a tingle and went down to the dealership. I sat in a coupe and a vert. I couldn't extend my legs on the coupe and on the vert my head was sticking in the top.
This car is a blast to drive.[8D]

RE: seats and headrests
these are the most functional headrests i have ever used. you can recline the seat slightly and still usethe headrests to relax. Its an amazing car for long drives, the seats are incredibly comfortable and form fitting. I am 6'3" And these seats are the first to ever actually "fit" me.
