Saw those seats in a GT2 at dealer showroom, they are sick.

If I'm not mistaken if you option a car now you can include them for only $1575. I'd trade in my seats for those in a heartbeat, but oh well

These GT2 seats are outrageous and gorgeous. I am inclined right now to get rid of my Sparco DTM CF seats.
Does anyone know how much these GT2 seats weigh each?

Anyone interested I have a set of Sparco DTM CF race seats (15 lbs. each).
They are brand new, never installed and never driven on. They are black leather and alcantera. Pure real carbon fiber.
PM me if any interest.

Probably weighs more than your Sparcos...9kg savings over sport adaptives.

In the RS I changed alcantara OEM seats for OEM euro seats and the difference was really big ij weight terms and also the sensation of the car,cant imagine the diff from adaptative to the new GT2 seats.
Original seats are so heavy that its better to ask help when moving.

Also the butt gyro jiji works very good with more sporty seats since the car transfers more info of the road to the driver,and when you track the difference in the turns is great in the way they support your body.

I would almost rather have your Sparco seats. They are awesome. The Sparco CF portion is an actual CF composite material whereas the GT2 factory seat has a plastic core and a CF surface. In other words, it is like "gold plating" but not solid gold.

Alcyon - How does the carbon fibre option compare to the seats, appearance wise...do they look similar?
Thanks
