No the Gen I leather is softer. The Gen I is like a Soft Black Leather Winter Glove. The Gen II is like a Baseball Cowhide hard leather.
Does anyone else find the front seats uncomfortable?

Not in my LSes......
I have a degenerative spine condition. Issues with discs and sciatica on both sides. I find the seats to be therapeutic. In the mornings I'm super stiff and usually fall into the car. Carefully though since in 6-1 and roughly 250lbs. By time I drive to work 30-45 mins the stiffness is not there so much. I don't have any pain while driving. I feel craddled while driving. My only complaint would be about the lumbar support not moving up and down as I have the seat as far down as it will go. So I don't ever use the lumbar. I haven't ever driven the car for more than an hour in the year that I have owned it.

I've never been in a Gen 1, but I agree on the baseball comparison. Stiff and hard. They're like sitting on a rock after a while.

I have a gen 1 LSE and have converted to the gen 2 heated and cooled seats. The gen 1 seats were more comfortable than the gen 2 seats but my gen 2 seats have DVD players in the head rests so they are staying in....for now

I was going to say, the leather in my two LSs were about the same, neither was/is real soft high quality leather

I think the seat bottom feels narrow on long trips, like my thighs rest too much on the bolsters. Not very forgiving of manspreading. Or maybe I just have a fat ass...
