How do you set your rearview mirror?

I'm more concerned with wear on the driver's seat bolster than getting in and out. And I suspect the Nappa leather is less durable than the "regular" leather.

I don't understand any concern about the bolster. Nothing touches it. That damage someone had was from something really weird happening other than normal operation of the car, IMHO.

On my G8 with leather bolsters, the driver side outer bolster has worn some of the black exterior off from my wife getting in/out of the car. Of course the car has 192,000 miles on it and 10 years of wear. But clothing and belt loops can take a toll.

I think that's the way it's designed to help you get in/out without tearing up the seat bolster with your belt loops and such. I also thought you can defeat that in the menu? Maybe not ... still waiting for my car ....

i just purchase a gt1 and anytime I turn off the car, the drivers side seat moves all the way back. I have programed my car with my seat preference however, is still moves back every time I turn off the car. The seat goes into my preferred seating when I turn on the car.

Any suggestions. Ty

You can turn it off by going into the "Convenience" menu in the instrument cluster menu (while in Park), and turning off "Seat Easy Access." I keep mine on normal as I quite like it.

i also am 6'3" and really don't rely on the mirror. i can say that with all the speeding i do, i don't care who i passed, hahahaahaha, but honestly, i have driven cars with worse rearviews. mid 90's camaros with that tall wing. subaru's that i kept expecting to take off. my slp trans am with that wraparound hoover dam looking wing. at least i could see if the car behind me had lights on its roof.
