I would have cried about that price just a few months ago, but after what has happened on BaT the past few months with these seats all I can actually say is "hey, that's a fair deal!".

I'm so glad I bought my second set of these over 4 years ago!

Too poor for these, but for my own knowledge (because I really have a hard time telling the difference) are these the 997 ones or the 991 versions?

He's just upped the price by $3k since initial post so maybe it's less fair now

Yep, I think I underpriced them initially.

I would list them on BAT. You will get the most money there and I would do it quick before the reality of 2024 sets in.

991 version. You can tell because 991 version has 3 seat cushions. 997 version has 2 seat cushions

Thanks, Elliot. Good to know for future hunting. I don’t suppose the heating elements can be retrofitted to any 991 buckets if they didn’t come with it (ie not Row)?

Yes its no problem if you car already has heated seats. You can buy the parts required for seat heating the 991's folding buckets through any Porsche Centre.

The style of the seat is from a 997 vs a 991. I think these are 997 GT2 bucket. They fold and the headrest is the 997 design. I bought these new from Gert at Carnewal in mid 2022. Its a "p91007 GT2 Seat". It was OEM and new. Not sure what's up with the seat cushions but will check into that. 991 buckets don't fold.

Those are 991 GT2 folding buckets. I bought the same ones from Gert. 997’s have been discontinued for awhile, which these 991’s are as well now.
