I may be weird but I find that the softbacks look better.

I've had both softback and hardbacks, and the softbacks are far and away the most supportive. Only down side is they're a bit tougher to get in and out of, and that sat a bit higher in my car leaving no headroom for a helmet.

+1 but I love them both and must have on my cars 👍🏼

Don't own a 95 but all my 964's get the soft back sport seats and the 993's the hardbacks 👍🏼

+1 on Softbacks, way more supportive. I think the HB looks great, but I actually find them less comfortable and even less supportive than the standard comfort seats.

As long as you fit, the softbacks used form late 84 to early 95 have to be the best sports seats Porsche has ever offered. And they look fantastic.

Rudy I sooooooooooo want to see your collection one day. The 964s...............want.
