Your Dark Horse has turn signals in the mirrors? I have the premium plus HP and the appearance package to, but I don't have turn singles' in my mirrors .
if you got the heated and cooled as well - you must have the turn signal in the mirrors.

I love the recaros in my DH. Personal preference, for sure, if weā€™re talking about only using the vehicle for street driving. The car was designed for track performance, making the recaros a smart option if youā€™re buying a DH Handling Pack.

But since the seats are an option, who cares what you get? Buy what you want. If youā€™re unsure what to buy and have never sat on performance seats, go check one out at a local dealership before you buy.

Sorry, I edited my post. Not having Recaros is a great thing for me and critical. My real question is if I will regret not getting premium.
For me,
The Recaro seats are hard to get in and out of.
Itā€™s hard to slide across them.

That's half the point of the RECAROs - they keep you IN the seat! :rockon:

I have the DH with appearance, handling, premium packages, no recaros and no carbon fibre wheels. I wonā€™t be tracking my car, so didnā€™t need the lighter wheels. I sat in the recaros and didnā€™t like the rigid feel. Like everyone here said personal preference.

I have Recaro's and no turn signal mirrors on my Dark Horse premium don't know what to say early build chassis number 1361.
Recaro seat equipped premiums don't get the signaling mirrors. Premiums without recaros do.

If I had a nickel for everything that had to be repeated because people refuse to search, I'd have a lot of nickels!

I have a premium with suspension package and the dealership had me sit in a Mach 1 with Recaros, and I didn't order them, because they were not comfortable to me. Every person is different, sit in them and then decide. You may be a good fit.

What percentage of DH buyers will regularly track the DH? I bet it's a super low number. And for those who don't track it, the DHHP is nothing more than slightly wider tires & wheels. I think some want it just so they can say, "Mine has the DHHP." But, hey, it's thier money, and - honestly - nobody should be telling them how to spend it.
DarkHorse HP has the larger splitters, I can't stand the tires either but it's nice to get some racing wheels to keep on the side. The Handling pack gives you adjustable front suspension, there's a bunch of stuff, trust me, "Wider tires" wouldn't be justification for ANYONE to pay an extra 12K for a car...

My body has always seemed to "fit". Not sure what your size or shape is - I'm 6-2" 220-ish pounds, 34 to 36" waist and wear a size 46 suit coat. The side bolsters above my waist level did feel a little infringing at first, but I think my body has (again) readapted to this, as that is how RECAROs feel/fit. I'm sure those "give" a little over time, too.
It's funny, I'm 6' 2" weigh a bit more than you. However my Recaros fit like a glove. I love them and as time goes by they fit better.

Iā€˜ve said that exact same thing many, many times. It was usually about the Mach 1 but same deal. Then I actually bought one. Those words give me indigestion every day. Iā€™ve never experienced a car like this.

The HP is a lot more than bigger wheels and tires. And no, mine donā€™t go near a track.
