There is a reason I am driving Pepperwagons...

Several years ago (was driving my Boxster) and need a 4door.
Got a new VW Passat. Thought it was great.
Then drove the Boxster to Austin to visit a friend that was getting married.
The next weekend drive the Passat to Waco for the wedding. Was a taxi for the event.
Anyway Almost did not make it home. The seat pinched my butt nerves, which caused pain in the butt, my feet and legs going to sleep and my feet waking me a night hurting.
Could not drive the VW for more than 5 minutes with it causing severe pain in the butt.
At 2500 miles VW bought the car back.
Could still drive the Boxster with no problems.

While my nerves were irritated drove all the new and used 4 door sedans I could find.
Result was only either a Volvo S40 or a BMW 3 series if the BMW had sport seats.
Got the two dealers into a price war and got the BMW.
Worked great.

Then needed an SUV so traded the 3 series for a BMW X3 with sports seats.
The short wheel base of the X3 started giggling me to death so sold it and
Ended up buying a cheap 92 Range Rover.
Range Rover started hurting my butt if drove farher than across town.

Sold it and found a cheap used CayenneS. (the air suspension helped getting mom in and out).
After a few years upgraded it to a Turbo to get the cornering lights.
Have driven the 928, CayenneS, and Cayenne Turbo all on long tripss with no butt issues.
