Unhappy Question regarding New G35 coupe

I bought a new 2007 g35 coupe. I am 5'7 and am having a problem with my head rest. I am getting a neck pain if I drive long distances. I am not able to adjust the seat to front as it creates a pain in the low back. So can anyone suggest me if I need to buy a head rest for the seat and where can I buy it? Thx for reading the post.

Do you have lumbar support in your coupe? Try playing around with that... putting it 'out' makes the back pain go away on long drives...

I think the M or Q headrests might be better. they should just drop in to place, but double check.

Yeah man... I agree. The Coupe is definitely not the most comfortable car to sit in on long drives. I find that my back feels a little uncomfortable in the seat after a long period of time and sometimes my right foot also feels a bit weird/cramped from the position of the seat relative to the gas pedal. I'm like 5-8 or 5-9 and not very heavy(like 140 pounds), so maybe our car is just uncomfortable for lighter and/or shorter drivers.

I've found a very slightly reclined position to be extremely comfortable. The 8.5 trip I had after picking up my G induced no back discomfort at all. Power seats these days are almost too adjustable, but if you play long enough, you might just stumble upon the perfect setting.

found my '06 G35 uncomfortable in the beginning. takes sometime gettin used to. i do have the seat reclined just slightly. you are right about the position of the pedals.. it does feel like i'm sitting straight, feels i'm turned a bit to the left...
anyways, keep playing with the settings and you'll get it right. make sure you adjust the setting and then "re-seat" yourself
