Don't worry, I'm sure either 1. the seats are actually comfy and it just looks like they aren't or 2. The seats will be changed and will be comfy. Mitsu isn't going to put some crap seats in their best car.

EDIT: My apologies for the double-post!
Those seats are damn nice... But I'm not sure how long they would last, the glossy finish n all, seems like they might get scratched up easily. I am beginning to love the X more and more, gonna watch the show on Speed TV in 53 minutes about it!

Anyone care to take a guess at insurance costs for that badboy? Probably over $2000 a month at a good rate.

I'm a little confused by the below picture. This appears to be the roof and it looks like it's partially made of some type of glass. However all the pictures of the outside of the car show a metal roof, so what car is this picture from?
I read that the new X will have a 2.0L Mivec engine. They say that the engine will have a flat torque band with a fast response in any rpm.
How will be possible a flat torque band with a single turbo configuration?
I would like to know if the new X will bring something different like twin turbo, one small for low rpm and one big for high rpm or a compressor turbo engine.
Notice that the new Golf GT already has a compressor turbo engine. It is a 1.4L with 200hp and flat torque band.
