Went out with my mate tonight for a Chinese and went in his Focus ST 2023.
Nice car with the updated infotainment and performance seats.
I'm sorry but the performance seats are not as supportive on the thighs as the recaros.
They feel just as supportive in other ares and the same in the 'bum' area.
When I got out I grabbed the thigh bolster and it was easy to flex.
My mate had the Recaro's in his last Focus ST and he agreed that the Recaro's we're better all round.
Another mixed review of which are better.
The performance seats do look better though.
