I have just returned from Frankfurt and I have to say the RS4 does look awesome in the flesh, even if the staff on the Audi stand were useless.

I don't know if anyone has seen the new seats in the flesh but does anyone know what the 2 switches on the side of the seats are for? Is this to widen and narrow both the back rest and side leg rests?

They are for adjusting the side bolsters in and out in conjuction with the sport button on the steering wheel. Sat in the one at Geneva which was a while ago but am sure that's what they do.

Agree with you it does look aggresive in the flesh!

Mark/Adrian,

That's exactly what they do - there are 2 switches on the sides of each seat for "manually" adjusting the wings of the front bucket seats. When you hit the Sport button, the wings automatically move inwards to hug you and your passenger as you drive slightly faster...

(I was at the Frankfurt Show too - I can also confirm that the new RS4 looks awesome in the flesh!)
