TLS Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 According to the brochure, the 2.5i's don't have heated seats. At least on page 11 there is an overhead picture with a simple storage pocket where the heated seat switches go. Looks like you need a 2.5i Limited to get heated seats.

RoundBoy Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 hmm i thought the heated seats were part of the winter package.. and that was standard on limited.. i guess you can get it installed anyway... d'oh.

TeeLoo Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 [quote name='soccrstar']i seriously cant see any differences between the legacy GT and GT limited[/quote] Then save yourself a couple of grands and get a non-Ltd GT. Seriously, if you can't notice the differences surely you don't need the Ltd package. 2005 Legacy GT Wagon Ltd 5EAT Garnet Red 1999 GTI VR6 Black - sold but not forgotten...

Wa-gone Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 I test drove a non-limited first and found the driver's seat to be very uncomfortable. The Limited allows for more adjustment of the lower part of the seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaze Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I am in the same delima...trying to make a decision between the Limited GT & non-Limited GT. I think I am leaning more toward non-Limited GT at the moment. I was really only interested in the Leather seats in the limited line...and then my cheapskateness (if that's even a word) kicked in. I thought the cloth upholstery seemed really nice....especially compared to past cars I've had. The dealer did tell me they could put in leather seats for $1000...but I'm not so sure I'm interested. I guess I'd better go make some more test drives. Does anyone know why the Limited GT is 65lbs heavier than the non-limited GT? Is it a combination of the power seat mechanisms & leather or something like that? Thanks for all the great posts across these forums....they've helped me out a lot while researching this car for purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Bates Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Those of us that saved $3000 prefer the car to be called "[b]un[/b]limited". :cool: Seriously though, it depends on what you want. In my other car I have an electric driver's seat, leather, and so on and it's was okay, but I remember a few times when I wish I could have special ordered with a manual seat and cloth to save weight. As I've mentioned in the other thread posted above, Once you've found your favorite seating position, how often do you adjust it again? At that point, the seat adjusting motors become dead weight. I didn't see the point in paying that much extra for a sunroof since that was all that I wanted out of the package. I also don't trade cars in or sell them very often. Trade value wasn't important to me. As a former mechanic, I keep my cars in very good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent Bates Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 [i]Regarding power seats:[/i] That's entirely true Deer Killer. Perhaps it's more useful to others than it is to me though. Here's my POV. (And keep in mind that my GTP has leather and an electric driver's seat.) 1) Cloth is cheaper. 2) Manual seats are cheaper. 3) I don't have to buy more Leather cleaner and protectant. (But I might buy more Resolve.) 4) Cloth manual seats weigh less. 5) Cloth doesn't hold it's ambient temperature as long as leather when you sit on it. 6) Cloth breathes better than perforated leather. (Less perspiration) 7) Although electric seats allow a finer degree of control, it's very difficult to put back in your favorite position if someone moves it. (I have scored marks on my GTP seat mechanism so I know where it was.) Manual seats are easier because you can count the clicks, pumps, etc. 8) Once you've found your favorite position, the motors sit unused for months, or maybe years, at a time. Dead weight. 9) It's more expensive to replace a bad seat motor on electric seats. ;) 10) There's not much incentive for kids to play with a manual seat. 11) Manual seats don't require fuses. 12) I have an extra power drop under my manual seat to use for something else! Really, either is nice to have. I just felt that a manual seat was more of what I wanted in this car. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
