DC2R Owners...Comfort?

**IRI** · 09-02-2005 03:20 PM

Wondering how OWNERS find the comfort in their dc2r's. Just wondering cos read a few posts from people they are uncomfortable, no good as a daily driver etc.

Although Dc2r is very raw and stiff the recaros absorb everything and makes ur ride rather enjoyable. I realised after letting toE drive my car and getting thrown in the back seat of my own car how stiff the type R is. The back seat doesnt absorb anything and ur back side cops everything. Getting back into the driver seat and that problem is gone. Although saying this, sitting in a recaro for a long distance drive does cramp up your legs and starts to get uncomfortable. My type R is my daily drive car and i've never complained about comfortability. If you are going to compare comfort with other cars then yes type R will lose but its not a big of a problem.

although one of my mates was riding shotgun and he was quite "big boned"

and he complained that it was a tad bit uncomfortable..

if you love to drive and drive hard theres nothing like a dc2 ITR as a daily driver.

the standard sussy on the ITR is quite stiff being a race bred vehicle.
i only usually drive my car on weekends and not daily.
as a daily driver i guess i would get use to the ride but since its not a car driven daily it does feel a bit harsh on the body.
luckily having recaros this helps but it was any other seat.. my back would be up to shit

How true .....................
Pitty, there's far too many cars and cops on the road nowdays, so it's becoming almost impossible to enjoy a car like ITR. (appart from the race track)

Even though, not as quick or a great handling car like ITR, I had a lot more fun punting my Capri GT in 1970.

(Yes I already had a licence).
No speed limits on highways them days, hardly any traffic in the city.

No booze buses or speed cameras either.

I saw a cop car maybe once a week.

So, when you kids hear about "the good old days" you better believe it, there was such a thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was lucky to live through it..................
