        I daily mine. Fixed back, but with air con/music. I personally think my fixed back seat is more comfortable than the Sport seats. :p

                          Maybe I'm getting old. I guess it's also the clutch... It's a pro2000 seat and fully, extensively gutted. lol

                          But some of you guys are simply more hard core than me. I prefer heated seats, ice cold AC, bumpin' tunes and a moon roof. :D

                              When i had my e30 it was my dd. But since i sold it i had a Festiva, Blazer, Regal, and now a Ram as my daily. I liked the Regal as a daily, but winter was coming up and i didnt want to drive it in the snow. But I love the Ram cause it fits 4 adults with ease, can haul stuff in the bed, and has decent power for the small 318 thats in it.
