Default What are 944 sport seats worth these days?

I'll try to get a better picture up here soon of the seats. I know mint condition ones go for $1000 plus. These definitely aren't mint though. They are hard in some areas and the driver seat is split on the bottom. Thought the structure is excellent. I've seen similar sets in bad condition go for around high four hundred. Is it all the same still?

+ 1..... we've had seat/sport seat threads on the 968 and 993 forums going on the past couple of days.

the 993/996 sport seats are also pretty horny.

We need a thread on someone converting standard bolsters to sport - it seems do-able to me.... Bruce

It depends. I see sport seats for sale quite a bit in the $800 range. I don't know that they actually sell....

I've seen sport seats nicely repaired selling for $400-ish.

The ones you've got there look like they need a new seat cover set. Since a quality complete re-cover will cost about $800, i think $300ish is reasonable.

Yeah I'm thinking like $350 would be good for these. Cool. Thanks for the responses guys!

I've seen a few vendors who do this, including Paul Champagne.

I was just doing that last night. My 951 sport seats have about 2500 miles on them since they were re-covered in vinyl. I just wanted leather seats instead and the leather 996 sport seats, or GT2 seats in my case, are pretty nice.

I am interested in how much the 951 sports are going for also, and I don't want to distract the OP's thread. I'll start a new thread.

I never knew the bolsters on the Sports were so INSANE! My seats hold me in like a glove. No telling how these things would do. Daaaaang!
