Doubt it...we got the same standard equipment sport seats the rest of the world did on the 997GT3. The one-piece buckets were optional elsewhere. No reason to think anything would be different next time 'round, except that the optional seat design has changed and now complies with US regs.
Not everybody can fit in an aggressive bucket seat...

looked on the car config @ PCNA.com ... indeed the seats are listed for the 997S at $3485 also I note that the image/picture of the seats is called PP03_detail, my guess then is that the order code for the seats is in fact PP03

BTW looking at those photos the 1st I have seen from behind the seat; I do not believe that the seatback
angle is adjustable they are either folded or not ....

The only semi-regular reason I fold down my seats is to make it easier to get at the rollbars to mount my camera for the track.

I stopped using my GT3 seats on the street after being hit from behind last year. It has been 14 months and my neck still is not 100%. The seat is made for a head with a helmet. When my body when forwards and the belt chage stopped the belt I then went back into the seat. !: shoulders stop and head flexed back. Also, the plactic pieces for the belts hurt like sh^t. With that I just spend the 15 minutes to switch the seats. A friend also suggested building a sleeve with padding. I will look into that solution as well.

Has anyone got other photos (of the side) of the seat or the sliders?
Has anyone found lightweight (alloy) sliders to fit a 911?
