Carbon?
I have 3 sets of the same seats and they are all fiberglass.
Perhaps yours are different?
If mine are carbon fiber reinforce plastic............... then they just got more valuable??

looks like you are asking a good price for nice seats that include the sub bars.


Cheers

I have a pair of those Perlon Recaro's with the Porsche emblem in my 04 GT3. They are fantastic seats. The perlon wears very well where the leather version tend to stretch and sag a little with use. I was not aware they had become so pricey. Nice!

In Australia you could option both the leather and nomex buckets in carbon. I've seen a few GT3s here like that. Not sure of the weight difference but the standard fiberglass ones are not what I would call lightweight. Supremely comfortable though.

If you are referring to the Nomex seats for $10.9K USD, I think they are CF. If you zoom in on the pics in the ebay add using the ebay zoom feature, they do look like CF, but that may also be fiberglass patterning??? I'm not sure.
