Seen this 959 the past few days with old 70s 935 lollipop seats. Notice the perlon on the shells. Such cool seats, but makes me wonder what they did with the stock 959 seats!

Congrats, nathan1 (& Carlos993) - sold in an hour for $10,000 USD asking price + shipping:
"OEM 964 Speedster Recaro Seats- The real deal-964RS/993RS!"

I have for a sale a GENUINE set of OEM Recaro seats that originally came in a 964 Speedster or 993RS. They are also the same as the 964RS seats but they do have the trampoline bottoms that were reserved for the Speedster or 993RS, but the shells, upholstery, etc are the same.

These have the tricolor grey inserts and the shells are painted Guards Red. They are complete with brackets and sliders and are bolt in ready for any 964 or 993. They show only the slightest of wear/patina on the lower cushions and almost no wear on the bolsters. There are some very light scratches on the bottom paint on the passenger seat, not visible when the seats are installed. The stickers are not present as they were removed when the shells were painted. They have ~5k miles of use in one of my 964's.

These seats VERY rarely come up for sale and very rarely in such original, pristine condition.

Seat Part # 964.521.501.00 (2) Black Full leather
Center Backrest Part # 964.521.319.00 Color Code: CJL-Dark Grey/Pearl Grey
Bottom Cushion Part # 964.521.323.00 Color Code CJX-Light Grey/Dark Grey

The seats also come with the OEM adapters. The seats are slightly narrower than Recaro Pole Positions, so it’s important to get the OEM adapters so they mount to the OEM seat rails (included).
Adapter Part # 964.521.819.01 and 964.521.820.01

I fully recognize to the majority of people a set of Recaro Pole Positions are a MUCH better deal (I have a set myself) BUT if you have a 964RS, Speedster, 993RS, 993 GT2, etc. etc. and need the original seats, this is your opportunity.

$10,000 USD + $300 shipping CONUS. Actual shipping costs for International shipping.

The seats are located in Bellevue, WA. I will ship them via Fed-Ex ground insured for the full value and have them professionally packed.

Unfortunately I have to unload these as my torso is too tall to clear the shoulder holes on these seats. Price is firm.

I prefer a local pickup in Southern California if possible, but will ship at buyer's expense.

Philip-- Never knew you were fluent in German

Was in CA for the last 9 days. Missed you!

Latest seat rarity I've run across for sale -- "993 soft back sport seats & rear seat delete - cashmere" ad on Pelican Parts:
Originally Posted by SKM

Pair of soft back, cashmere, full leather sport seats for 993 (Porsche option code M383 & M387) $5,500. Also, cashmere rear seat delete/rear luggage dump for 993 (option code M419) $3,950. Rear seat delete has leatherette covering on doors rather than painted cashmere as many others are. Removed from a 993 cabriolet however shelf may also fit a coupe. These are perhaps the most supportive sports seats for a 993 and are very rare. Excellent condition. Located in Philadelphia suburbs.

Will consider trading your 993 seats (any color) plus cash.

Category: Interior
Price (no $ sign please): $3900
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (select ONLY those which apply): 964, 986, 987, 993
Location (Region): Europe
Item Condition: Used

Unique opportunity to acquire a set of original 964 and 993 Cup seats.
Unfortunately they have been repainted in the past so the original stickers are gone. They have also no identical back side and are therefore also priced accordingly. Price is per two, ex shipping from Amsterdam.

I also have one seat WITH correct stickers from a January 1994 so from a 993 Cup. That will be 2900 US$ ex shipping from Amsterdam.

More info per e-mail: info@porschedriversclub.com

FWIW, panel behind each shoulder is stitched differently from OEM ^^
For anyone near London who wants Recaro Pole Positions in RS/Speedster-look, another nod of approval for Southbound Trimmers from RLer BLACK-BETTY:

I want these softbacks so but but can't decide if it's worth them over custom hardbacks from Wald

These seats have been listed on ebay at least half a dozen times this year. Another member contacted me months ago asking if he should buy them and last I heard was going to pull the trigger. Yet they appear again and again. The seller also uses shill bids to drive the price up. I'm not sure if they ever sell OR whether the seller has a number of these and sells them every once in a while. If the latter were true it would certainly call their authenticity into question... In either case buyer beware.

For archival purposes I've attached the image from the auction here since they seller uses the same pictures every time.

Are rear seat deletes really going for $4k these days? I see the LA dismantler ones asking big $$$ but I didn't think they actually sold for that.
