Car Seats for Car-Enthusiast Parents

  Recaro car seat - Erin Riches

I happened to walk past the Recaro booth at the 2007 Geneva Auto Show, and in addition to all the aftermarket seats the company offers (for people who want to swap out their car's factory seats), there was a display dedicated to Recaro's line of car seats and boosters. One thing that struck me was that each seat -- from this front-facing toddler seat to the rear-facing infant seat below -- had serious lateral bolstering. Plus, they were all equipped with removable liners with extra bolstering so that you can keep a small child snug and then remove it as he/she grows into the seat.

I know such features are not unheard of on deluxe car seats, but if I were about to become a parent, I'd definitely be looking at seats like these...

You see, I like to drive... uh, decisively, so it would be good to know that my hypothetical child would be sufficiently battened-down around corners.
