Sandy,

I love these seats. With the leather they are not the original CS seats, aren't they? Any source information?

Apparently the original owner ordered the car with the 'comfort' seats - which I received with the car. After a short time he decided he wanted buckets, but as you say they are not the original type, there are definitely Recaros and look like the Profi model.
They're quite narrow, I could do with another couple of inches in width to be honest !!

I may be missing something, but the Techart 968 appears to be a front splitter and some wheels? Kinda lame for them isn't it?

Hello all - apologies if these have been posted already; haven't time right now to go all the way through the thread, and these are too nice to miss, IMHO:

The yellow car isn't a US car-weren't all the SY US cars 94/95? So they wouldn't have 17" Cup 1's, but of course people can fit what they like.

Many cars were equiped with 17" wheels at the dealer. Dealer installed 17 "Cup 1" wheels on my '95 Coupe before selling it to the original owner.

Damian,
Recall that while completing the North American 968 coupe registry I found there were TWO 1993 Speed Yellow M030 coupes produced and sent to Canada. They were twins. Since they were 93s they must have had the Cup1s. There is a few CarFax records out there for them. maybe turned into Race cars?
