I have the manual leather sport seats in my 997S, the cost was $760 total. I believe for 09 it is now an even $800.00. They do weight less than the standard leather power seat by some 15lbs each I was told but they are somewhat narrower as they do hold you in. I am just a 44 chest and they are quite snug..If you want the adaptive sport seats they cost like $3000 and the GT2 seats that are availalbe for 09 run almost $4k.

If you are looking to buy new vist Porsche's website and it breaks it down for you nicely.

I have the manual Sport seats in my 2009. I am 6'5" tall and these seats fit perfect. I could not fit in the Sport Bucket carbon fiber back seats. I tried them on in a new GT2 and the Sport Bucket sits up higher and does not go back as far as the stock seats or sport seats.

thanks for the tips

I am thinking along the lines of the sport bucket manual seats. Lighter and look and feel a bit better. Now just to find a set
