I can’t speak for an S650 because I honestly have no desire to find out, but I will say the Mach 1 for me, is pretty perfect enough not to care to look.

Hi. Decided on the 24 Dark Horse. Threw in all season tires to sweeten the already great deal. Would have preferred the standard leather seats,instead of recaros, but I can live without them. If I want heated seats any upholstery place can install them. Had my Tacoma done for $450 and it works fine. Thanks for your comments.

I'd be willing to bet that someone would trade you a set of factory heated and cooled seats for the Recaros and actually give you money on top. There are a lot of people out there that want the Recaros.

If the recaro seats are manual and I swap them for the standard power seats, how will that work?

I would THINK that the wiring for the power seats are in the car. I know in the S550's there were plenty of people willing to do the swap as I described it. I know the S650 shares a lot of the basic wiring and layout of the S550 so I would think it would be the same scenario, but check over on the 7G side of this site or on Facebook to be sure.

On the S550 at least, if the car didn't come with heated seats, you didn't get the buttons on the dash, and I think you also didn't get the wiring. Now, there will be aftermarket kits with switches, but they won't have the connectors for the OEM seats.

If you have someone willing to buy the Recaros, they usually will swap the dash bezel with the buttons.
Here's the control module.

Hi. So I am considering a purchase of one of two cars. Both equally equipped manuals. 2022 mach1 premium, 17000 miles,47k. 2024 dark horse premium, 8000 miles, 55k. What say you. Thanks
Mach 1 all day long. The dark horse has its quirks and honestly I'll never get past the fact that the bade looks like a muscular man part when you flip it upside down.

Forget the power seats. Every time I turn my Mustang off with the memory seats the seat moves all the way back and the side mirrors move. When I start it back up I have to wait for the seat to move back into place and half the time one of the mirrors gets stuck. I could really do without the power seats with memory.

The easy entry feature you can turn off. Then the seat won't move when you turn the car off.

Guess you’ll be on the S650 forums instead of here now…

Pardon me for being confused. The recaros have a bracket /track that let's you slide the seat back and forward. Without those brackets, how will the standard seats move?

The standard seats have their own tracks and motors.
