Still waiting for mine. Plan to put leather seats in the car, using the dealer's upholstery recommendation. Has anyone added additional padding to the seats? The Prius will be replacing a Lexus, and we're spoiled by a very pluch interior.

You do know the side airbags are in the seats. There will be a Lexas Hybrid at the end of October.
I had leather installed and they are indeed a nice add-on. I have a black dog and the thought of his fur getting all over cloth seats was not something I wanted to see. The seats, however, could be a bit more comfortable:
- they're a little on the hard side -- makes my hour commute a bit hard on the tush!
- the seats seem to make you sit a bit higher. It may be that the leather makes the seats more taut than cloth and you don't sink down as much. I was also used to the deep bucket seats in my 3-series BMW that allow you to sit lower
- no lumbar support adjustment for the lower back
