YEP, the wallet and phone come out before I even get in the car to drive the 1.5 mile trip to work. When I had my honda Prelude, I only had to take out the wallet on long trips. These seats hold my but so much better that I can't hardely sit down with it in my pocket.

Having the wallet continuously keep poking me in the lower back is an issue in nearly every vehicle I drive. So I started wearing cargo pants or cargo shorts whenever I drive any extended distances. Wallet then sits in a side pocket at all times. The cargo pants are worn even on business travel. Sitting in economy with a wallet in the back pocket is also a PITA!

And I do prop my legs up every once in awhile to just get some movement. Using the cruise without a lot of traffic around, lets me even prop up the right leg for a bit.

And I've never had any back pain from driving the Crossfire or anything else. Most of my pain now is associated with my age and not having the flexibility I once had when getting in or out of these cars. HAH!

I too had a problem with my lower back using my crossfire as a daily commuter car. I solved the problem by buying an Audi for my daily commuter car and using my crossfire as a weekend car. Problem Solved
The crossfire is a sports car it is not designed to be super comfortable.

I had to do the same thing several years ago. Crossfire seats aren't the most comfortable though.

Lumbar support is the problem so I use this on long trips.
