    If the S6 gets the cool seats in the US why wouldnt the S5??

    Some magazines say that the S5 might not get the cool 1 piece seats because of US not allowing them. I dont understand this since the S5 seats are the same seats as in the US Spec S6? Anyone here can clarify this subject?

    I can confirm that the S5 in the UK has the one piece seat designs, as the one i was in at the weekend had them. And i can confirm that they are the exact same as the S6 having been in the C6 S6 afew times.
    Heres a picture of the S5 seats for the UK i took at the weekend at my dealer who had an S5 in.





    No idea what the difference in regulation could be, i know they changed the seats in the RS4 cabrio for the US as well. They are standard recaro's instead of the typical RS4 buckets. I think it could be to do with the surrounding cabin dimensions, being smaller in the S5 than the S6. Not 100% though !
