Default For Sale: 993 style sport seats, black

I purchased these seats with the intent of putting them in my next 993 should it not already have them installed. However I have yet to find a 993 to my liking and price range so if these seats sell, they sell. If not that is ok, too!

I treated the seats with Leatherique.

The seats are in great condition. 4 way adjustment for the lower seat. Slight wear on the driver's bolster as I suppose is to be expected as the bolster is more aggressive than the standard seat... and is more likely to be rubbed against when entering and exiting the vehicle.

Price of the seats is the same as what I purchased them for, $4500

Thanks

Brian

LOL Brutha now how the heck did you end up stumbling across there also ... I see another guy selling 996 GT3 sports fro 2k which is very reasonable. I think 996 GT3 sports are perhaps 4500 new.

Guys, this is the going price for 993 Sport Seats! The 996 ones are much cheaper! There have been 993 seats that have been posted for almost $10k!

You should take a pic of the side, are they powered & heated?

Thank you for the clarification fellow black 993 C4S friend

The seats are 4 way powered for the lower section of the seat (up and down) and manual adjustment for the seat back. Manual adjustment also for fore and aft movement on the seat rail for shorter/taller drivers. No heat.

I believe I have a picture at home and can attach it later.

I sure hope so... Those are the ones I have on my car!

Seriously though, there is NO WAY ANY seats are worth 10k.... unless they come with a lap dancer or something.

The $10k seats never sold at the listed price.
They are still listed and now only asking $8k.

Even at $4,500... that's a lot for used seats... Don't get me wrong, that's what the market is and I WANT them to get even more expensive, I have a pair in my car with crests. But I just bougt a BMW 528i from the original owner for $4,500 and there is even a 911SC near me for 2k more than that!

Good luck with the sale but if those are worth that much what are these worth? 8 way power and heat hard backed sport seats with no perforated leather all supple upgraded from the factory.
