So I am starting the process of looking at selling a set of the mentioned seats, I made a decision some years back to try and find a grey/gold 997.2 GT3 RS car and havent been able to do so (aside of paying $350k, and passing on an AC delete car in 2017 for $140k!). I had the mentioned seats, and a set of the GT2 folding seats in Perlon and decided I prefered these for my body fit. I paid somewhere around mid-teens for the seats when I bought them back in 2014 and am curious from the experts what these are worth in current day?

I saw a set on here recently for a very high price and spoke to the new owner about those in which I learned that they didnt sell near that price, but didnt get the actual price. Ive sold plenty on RL previous, but wondering would Pcar Market, BaT, PCA.org be better means to list for something this niche?

Apologize for the question, but way out of touch on the 997 market...

If you still want that car, I may have a 5k miles grey gold .2 RS coming in shortly. FAL, DEM, full leather, buckets, steel brakes. Seller is motivated and I think can be offered at 3 flat.

Well seeing as a set of the folding buckets just sold for about $17,500 on BAT I would thing that Person CGT seats would sell for a bit more. If I had those seats, I'd want to get over 20k for them.

Thank you, just looking for a general idea and some data points like that. Not really looking to turn into a big process.

I will offer up here at $20k if someone wants them, please reach out, Ill contact BaT and Pcar as well, along with potentially list on PCA.org too.

I am saying I am not willing to pay todays price on these cars, thank you for offering.

For reference I have a pair of like new condition leather cgt seats $25k already secured in wooden crates.

redmonkey928

Nice, so I think $20k for used Perlon seats would be reasonable on all accounts?

EMpunker

Is this the same seat you have?

Same seats but not in leather - Nomex/Perlon fabric.

That particular set I see had some issues on being restitched and repaired if I recall which doesn't really give a reflection of prices.

Persons are worth more than leather.

Those seats have a story that never ends. That new leather covering botch job made those seats worthless.

Was leather an option for Euro 997 Clubsports? I've only ever seen them with Perlon.

I bought one of the last brand new sets in full leather. Are those CGT seats? Never understood the distinction.

FLT6SPD

Those seats where a recover with marginal work at best.

I think a firm 20k for perlon is more than fair.

RAudi Driver

I'm not to versed on the differences between the CGT and the 997 club sport seats. To me they look the same. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

As for the perlon, from being on Rennlist for a while, every time the word "Perlon" came up it was always a holy grail type of moment from the members. I took that to mean that they were worth more than leather. Once again, it's all speculation on my end.
