The ROW configurators currently show the 997 style bucket seats which have a fundamentally different structure.
To me this implies that the 918 seat is being or has been DOT certified and could be cross certified into the 991 chassis.

The reason it gives me hope is that the image above is the same basic structural design as the 918 seats, the 918 includes N. American sales and the 918 configurator shows that seat structure as the only offering.

Porsche put the Carrera GT seats in the 997 GT3 as a club sport package (na for the USA). I don't think the new seats will be exclusive to the 918.

I'll bet we see this multi-function 'sport' wheel across the Porsche range soon.
All makes sense now why they did not waste the time and money to certify the 'GT2' sport bucket seat for the US 991/981. I'll bet we see the 918 sport seat optional across the 991/981 range for 2015 as well.
