DC2 vs DC5 Recaros

Im getting some recaros for my car. Found a pair of DC2 for $1200 and DC5 for $1300. Not sure which one I should get though. The DC2 looks like it has more padding but Im thinking the newer seats should be more comfortable since they are newer. I've sat in the DC2 and its similar to SRDs. Never sat in the newer ones so any help/opinions would be appreciated.

Yeh the DC5 shape looks better but it looks like it has less padding but once I sat in them it was so comfy. Ill post pics once I put them in.

IMO the DC2's look better, if only for the seat belt loops being more subtile.
