Default Anyone got RECAROs in their 993?

I am still looking for Hardbacks, but am now considering Recaros. I think I will need Sportster CS for the tilt issue... Let me know...!

Aren't they all Recaro (Reutter-Caroserie)?

Coop-- I was thinking along similar lines as JPP:

Yes, I have hardback Recaro sport seats in my 993, but OEM Speedster buckets may not be what you're asking about.
Regardless, good luck getting what you're after

I have Recaro SRDs and couldn't be happier with them... the tilt feature is really nice to have.

Graig,
Those seats are really nice, exactly what I am looking for.
How do you like them?
Are they heated and cooled?
Thanks,
--Joe

Thanks Joe, I really like them a lot. Bought them from FVD as part of a group buy back in August of `06. Not cooled but they are heated with lumbar support.

I have that same seat in Leather/Alcantera. Nice and comfy. I would like better support for the track though.

heated , cooled, black leather with a small yellow swipe that says turbo (where it would say Recaro).

I would take something around $800- $900 plus shipping

Great deal for somebody with a turbo! These are really nice seats, pretty similar to my Misanos.
