Recaro sport seats

Today i ordered Recaro sport seats...Iwanted gt3 seats,but they are to radical for me!!!!the Recaro's have heat,and electric,and to top it off they have ventillation....can't wait to get thrm..I also opted to put the red stiching on them so they match the rest of the interior...what do you guys think????

Andrew has the stock seats...we switched cars today, and I believe he is getting those because he loved my sport seats....GT3's were not practical for him...

They look like they have more side/thigh bolstering plus the seat cushion looks a little long under the knees.

Thanks D... I need a bolster on the side to hold me in on turns,and gt3's are too radical for me..The gt3's fit perfect for me,but it's the in/out of the car that bothers me...I tried it many times on jim's car

I had those seats (exact same ones) in a jag XKR a while back. They are really comfy but a lil' on the heavy side I suspect.

They are quite heavy...I believe the ones with recaro vent and heat tip in at 54 lbs each.

Why don't you just get factory sport seats?? I am sure someone here would be willing to get rid of theirs at a fair price...

I got a chance to sit in these seats and they are much more supportive compared to the Porsche Sport Seats...The side and lower bolsters are higher and thicker than the factory sport seats. If you're not really concerned about the weight, they are very nice. The Sparco Milanos are another nice reclinable sporty seat.
