Price Increase ALREADY on GT3 Seats
So with really no availabilty yet, the price on the seat buckets by themselves did go up 3/1 (almost $1000 on this alone). The list price on the bucket with nothing else is now $3911. So yes with a full seat, trim, and brackets you are looking at $5K. Not sure what Porsche is thinking anymore...

tell me about it. trying to explain that to customers is not easy. i'm not the bad guy but Porsche is making it worse...
oh btw, not to mention the 5% shipping price increase after March 1st.

I think the Cobra Suzuka Carbon Fibre seat is a very nice seat. It comes in Alcantara and weights about the same as the 996 Porsche GT3 ROW seat (15 lbs). Cover it in any leather you want and you will have a very nice pair of seats for $4K (as they come) to $6K (leather covered).
Kind of hard to justify the difference for the cool Porsche seats, even if you are saving 12 lbs overall!

there are so so many seats that are way better than the factory RS seats. i am either doing 996gt3 seats or recaro spg hans, omp hans or something equivelant.

The Sparco DTM may be an alternative choice if you want to maintain the elegant look of leather and suede. Also, no logo! They are not cheap. I think about $3k each.
