GT2 Seats

Does anybody know any details about the availability of the CF GT2 seats ? Can they be fitted in the 997TT ? price ? Is there a height adjustment similar to the sport seats ? Don't think the GT3 seats would work because they are fixed but the GT2 seats fold. Probably nuts but love the look, weight and performance

yes, its totally retro-fittable. I gave a lot of thinking to it, but ended up ordering adaptive sport seats with painted backs. They look cool, but maybe in a GT with an alcantara interior. And i got doubts about the comfort. But maybe later, i may go with them.

Set on one today, not as good as I thought. I felt much better on the Sport seat and not wait for the Bucket GT2 seats. If you track your car most of the time, then go for it.

The new buckets are awesome, VERY COMFORTABLE. It is the best one for street and track use so far.

If you check the car configurator on the Porsche website (USA), you'll find that the carbon GT seats are now an option on the Turbo ($1500).

Well, the 996 GT3 seats with carbon backs are around $6200 a pair at Carnewal. So at least that.
