Hi there

I know its a personal preference which is more suitable/comfortable but I have a specific question about them.

Do either the 18 way or 14 way give more legroom for the rear passengers or are they exactly the same in this regard? I've read somewhat conflicting comments on the issue.


Thanks very much

Hi

Well we just did a bunch of sitting in different seats in the dealership and found the 18way to be the most comfortable. I've done one big trip (to Italian Alps and back) with absolutely no aches and pains so the 18way seats must have suited me!

Rear legroom?..... no something that was a concern but it's a 991 so not too high on the priority list.

I suggest just go to a showroom and sit in a number of different seats

I very much doubt there's any difference in rear room. That said I personally think seats are one of the best places you can spend money when speccing a car....you use them every single second you're using the car and in my experience the Porsche 18 way seats are superb.

I had a loan of a Panamera for a week whilst my car was being sorted, it had 4 way seats even the other half commented on how uncomfortable they were and she is not really into cars.

I have the 18 way and when changing will spec 18 way again.
