Nearly bought a 4S with black leather comfort seats. The guy let me down and changed his mind about selling the car. If I'd bought it I would have been in the market for those sports seats, VERY hard to come by. Pricy but if you badly want some worth paying (IMO).

Managed to get a 4S with stock black leather sport seats eventually

I don't know why - I can see heated seats for my Audi A4 (and I love them), but not for my 993 (especially at $5000!!!!)

I have heated seats in my car (Cab). My first thought was, "what am I going to do with these since the car will be stored during the Winter." However, a friend of mine who owns an 89 Turbo Cab mentioned how nice they will be on those cooler Spring/Fall days when you want the top down.

Now I'm glad I have them.

(I won't have spent $5K for them, though. )

I have a 97' C4S (silver/black) with 8-way power seats and am looking to replace them with heated 8-way power seats. If anyone has them or knows of someone looking to swap/sell, please let me know.

I can't believe anyone would pay that price.

Plus they weigh the same as stock seats, so there's not even a weight savings.

To put that price into perspective....I just paid less than that for a '95 Saab Convertible...complete with black leather heated seats.

I just got my 996 sport seats today. I paid $2,200 for the set including shipping. My friends think I'm crazy for spending that much on seats. Let alone $5K!!!
