coming off Porsche 991 lease considering c63 amg

The 18 way top of the line Porsche seats are really uncomfortable for rides in excess of one hour. Looking at an Audi RS5 and the C63AMG with the 507 option. Any input from you guys is appreciated.

I drove a 911 for 12 yrs, I also just had about 3 weeks of a loaner from the dealer, a 15 C300. I HATED the seats and the awkward entry , it killed my back

The outgoing C63 seats are pretty firm and very deeply bolstered. I left they are tighter than the 991 sport seats and certainly the M3. Also very firm. Haven't done a lot of time in them.

I would not shop a car for the seats but shop different seats for the car you like.
In this case I chose the c63 AMGs but seats were good for me. Look at aftermarket options; if available. Or have them padded through an upholstery shop.
