Default 993 Sports softback seats with heat in marble grey

Seats are in excellent condition with very low miles. Trying to gauge the market so I can post them up for sale.

Sport seat's from the 968/944 series years? The OP is possibly confused.

Didn't the 964 (911) share the seats with the 968/944 chassis? If so, then "soft backed" sport seats are just that, kind-of-a cross post...

A few 94/95 968's came with the same sport seats (including stitch pattern) as the early 95 993 cars. Value would be dependent on the stitch pattern Fantastic seats & VERY rare.

With the heat option and 993 style stitching, I'd say that they could be worth around $4k in near perfect condition. Certainly worth more to a 993 owner than a 968. WIth the regular 944/968 stitching, much less.

They are the 993 seats in excellent condition. Thanks for the heads up on their value. They look full leather, just to add.

I thought that both soft back and hard back sport seats were only available with 4-way power? The OP says that they are 8-way but never specifically says that they are sport seats. I would be curious to see them as I have never seen 8-way sport seats.

You are 100% correct. They are 4 way power. Up and down on the front and back. That's it. My bad. They are definitely sports seats. I will post some pics so people can see for themselves.

These rarely come up for sale so it would be hard to put a price on them. Last few sets I have seen have been asking $1500-2500 but I don't think I have seen any for sale in at least 6 months. I would love to find a set in black.

Very pretty! They look like they are in great shape but hard to tell in pictures. You are missing one of the plastic covers on one of the hinges. I believe these are still available from the dealers for a reasonable price. Hopefully you will get what you want for them.

They are in excellent condition. I had to squeeze the pics to make them fit as per rennlist requirements.

Appreciate the kind words.

Listed in classifieds.

Thanks guys for the feedback. Hopefully I will be adding a 993 to my stable soon and be part of the group. I just pray it won't have marble grey interior, or I will be kicking myself for selling this set .

FWIW I've seen Raj's cars, I've seen parts he's had for sale in the past. He's a stickler for quality and I'm sure these seats are better than described.

GLWS!
