Man I wish I had $40K+ to set up an M coupe for racing.  :)

I haven't seen one, but TC Kline has one for the Roadster so he might be 
devloping one for the coupe.

>Has anyone replace the driver seat with a Recaro one piece racing seat 
in the M coupe?

I haven't tried that, but I have tried to get more headroom and knee 
room in my roadster without much luck.  I think swapping the seats isn't 
an option unless you want to see either a check engine light (maybe) or 
an airbag light (probably) due to the electronics going to the seat.  
The other problem is the fact that the seat 1) has the seat belt 
attached to it, 2) it has the seat belt tensioner attached to it.

I have given up on getting more room except for taking it to an 
upholstery shop to remove some foam or replace it with thinner foam.

Any comments on the swapping seat problem from others?
