I have the classic grey sport seats in my car and belive that the sport seats on Ebay looks much lighter than the ones I have. It could be the lighting. Ask the seller to check if there is any factory code that says what colour shade the seats has.

 

The seats in my avatar are classic grey as well...FWIW

 

Well, I have a pair of what he wants for sale. Much-much less than 3K Euro even with shipping. Maybe mention it to the seller and see if he wants to do anything?

 

I have classic grey HB seats as well and they look darker -- more like deadhead's, even when not in the sun.

 

The ones in my picture are Classic Grey...

 

Not sure if this helps but these are mine in various light. They are really hard to photograph. In peersn they look darkert than by camera because they are fairy new and the leather reflects the light. The second picture show classic gey vinyl tunnel, gear gaitor and handbrake in leather as well as seat base. The handbrake etc all show colour more like it is in real life.

My gut feel is you are looking at classic grey but two of the closer up pictures make me feel it could be lighter like marble.

Heck for 3000 Euro you can have my ones with shield and heating but they have midnight blue backs....

I will ask him and see what he says.

 

If yours have arena red backs, I will buy them off from you instead. Thanks for help.

 

Deriffic, if you decide to purchase any seats, and have them shipped, DON'T have them packaged up in one box in the 69 position. This is not the best & safest. It may be cheaper, but you risk damage. Good luck.

A wardrobe box can work very well for some seats for shipping.

 

Indeed. Thanks for advice.

 

IMHO, those seats are definitely Classic Grey. Here's a picture of Marble Grey with a Classic Grey vinyl dash and door caps. In many lights, Classic Grey can have a 'purplish' hue to it and is MUCH darker than Marble grey. Marble is almost white (like marble tile).

 

Hi Mike,

could you send me a PM with some pictures and price about your har-back seats?

thanks in advance!

I still think those seats are classic grey and not marble grey. Unless there are some other "grey" which I am not aware of (such as rubicorn grey).

 

I think it's actually Rubicon Gray. It looks purplish. Classic does not. At least in the grays I've seen laying next to each other and identified as Rubicon and Classic (than again, it's really confusing with interior colors).

 

Arpad, they are regular 997 seats, not hard backs.
