The ones in my last Audi were Recaros. (there was a label on the frame).
Very, very comfortable.

One can also sit in Recaros on many Lufthansa and Swissair flights!
These carriers prove that neither do plane seats have to be
uncomfortable, nor does the coffee have to taste like bilge!  Opinion:
The same people who perpetuate these myths are the same ones that keep
100 mpg fuel-injection computers out of our Audis (and killed JFK).
