Carbon Seats in N. Fairfield/N. Westchester Counties

I am contemplating an M3 order and would love to be able to try out the Carbon Buckets. Anyone nearby willing to let me take a look? I am in Danbury, CT. Thanks

I am in Southeast PA and have the Carbon Buckets. You're more than welcome if you are ever out this way. For what it is worth, if the car will be a daily driver I suspect you would regret having them. Outside of that, they look amazing and take the car to another level in my opinion.

I daily drive mine (maybe 20 miles a day) and wouldnt trade them. I think they are very comfortable at least compared to the carbon buckets in the P cars

I would also be interested if anyone is in the area and willing. I am in Fairfield County, CT. I just received an allocation and this is the option I am having trouble with after reading the prior postings, which say you have to sit in them. A search of local dealers doesn’t seem to show any cars in stock with the buckets. Thanks!

To the OP, BMW of Bridgeport has a used 2021 M4 in their showroom with the bucket seats, saw it today.

I've driven a G82 on track with carbon buckets and loved it. Found them to be perfect and didn't have an issue getting in or out. My only concern would be wear and tear on the bolster if the car is a daily driver.

Thanks - I stopped by there over the weekend to try them out. They are a bit too confining for me (6'3" and 220) and my wife absolutely hated them. She's only 5' tall and had a very difficult time getting in over the side. She literally had to fall into the car.
