So I have currently settled for the standard seats as I want the dakota mocha...but I just don't want to be feeling sorry and wishing I had gone for the comfort seats,,,
what's your take?
Hey!
The Dakota this generation is miles better than the last generation. Some people said the Dakota is looser than the last gen but like I said earlier, it helps make it feel softer for sure.

Yeah like the other poster said, it's something you should try out. I prefer sportier vehicles therefore MC seats really help grips the body during sharp or even normal turns. That said, I don't have an issue with the standard seats at all. Took it for an extended highway drive today and at no point did I think it was not good. It was comfy.

Only reason I would go MC for this car is if I were to drive super aggressive like I do in my M3, and for the aesthetics of the MC seats. I love the pop out front thigh support look lol.

I hope it helps. It's a hard one to describe lol. I don't think it's something you would regret either way. To me, steering wheel is more important.
