Being for the GT2 would make sense.

Given the radical appearance of those seats, I wonder what else they've done to the 997 cabin to make it work with seats that look so, um, "futuristic."

ps. Still get a chuckle out of seeing 996 GT3 seats in Star Trek Enterprise. : )

Those seats are hot, as Paris would say.

Thanks for the pics, but that really look bad IMO.

Looks like some kind of fish...

Why would you want tilt back seats on the GT2 or GT3 anyway... there are no back seats to access

Makes putting any travelbags in the back easier, and also for cleaning the insides of the rear windows.

good point :-)
These are great for us that need the back seats for kids most of the time, and like to go to the track a few times a year.

And tilt back seats would be legal in the US. It looks to me like they are making a tilt back seat that is closer to a fixed bucket. Good Idea.
