New Porsche Bucket seats available on German Car Configuration site

Porsche has finally put the new bucket seats on their German site. Price will be 1,416,10 Euros. Earliest availablility supposedly 11/2007.

Here are pictures, looks great but I'm not sure if I'd want to get these retrofitted to mine. Could be really cost prohitive but then again I might end up doing it.

Cayman is my guess.

At those prices, its better to trade in your TT and get a new one!

Would have been a nice option to have last year. I love my adaptives too much to switch to these.

I checked the German configurator and almost died looking at the price for the aerokit, which is only a front lip and rear wing Euro 5,355

I wonder how many they are thinking of selling at that price

When are they finally going to make the US configurator workable and give us all the options they have in Germany ??

I like the seats, but I guess unless you do regular track days not worth the investment over the adaptives

Yep, after you guys complained that it was a Cayman, I went back and got the Turbo version and updated the price too.

Looks heavy...
For the price I'd prefer the CGT seats.

Supposedly the sport bucket seats are about 15 lbs lighter each than the sport seats and 15 lbs heavier than the Euro RS seats.
