Default GT3 seats

I Finally got allocation for my GT3 and was just wondering are the seats in the all the videos, prints, etc... going to be on the US model. When I go to the Build Your Own section on Porsche's website it doesn't show those exact seats as being the standard. I know that we always get slightly different seats due to regulations, etc.. Has anybody gotten their GT3 in yet?

Thanks
Mike

Never mind the posts, I got my question answered. That sucks on the seats, thats what makes the car. I have the sport adaptive seats on my current 997S and wish that I hadn't gotten them.

Are American Porsche specialists able to order the Carrera GT buckets for the new GT3? Another quetion I was wondering is how do those compare to the bucket seats used in 996 MKII GT3 and GT2? Last question, can the older buckets be fitted into the 997 GT3?

You can make the 996 GT3 seat fit in the 997 GT3 and the 997 GT3 will fit in the 996. I am not sure if I am able to get a hold of the Carrera GT seats but I will take a look and see what I up come with.

It is a bummer, but it hardly makes the car what it is...
