Is the US getting the one piece euro recaros or are we going to get the 2 piece the same way the RS4 was?

Yes, the super sporty ones aren't coming here because they don't have a side air bag.

I thought those were the only seats available for the R8? Was I mistaken?

In the US, yes. But, in the ROW, you have the choice of the above and this:

Ahh cool. Didn't see that option in the configurator. I can't stop loving my RS4 seats.

In Europe, the option is for "sport" seats or "comfort" seats. The sport seats have adjustable side bolsters, as well as the different shape shown in the pictures above. US buyers can get only the "comfort" seats. Not bad, but not quite as good, either, IMHO. The sport seats (which were on the German spec car I drove) are really great.
