Default New GT4 acquisition

Well time for mid engine car #7, a 2016 GT4. Came with additional blue plaid inserts for the LWBS but I returned them to stock with the alcantara versions. Any idea what they're worth on the used market? Car only has 2300 miles and I have no idea how long they were installed, but they are like new.

Congrats! Seats remind me of the plaid in old GTIs.

inserts only, and now I think they retailed for $2500 if similar to the Porsche Petita inserts. It's the alcantara inserts that cost $6500 to replace.

The plaid ones were sourced from Porsche Parts in Germany, so it's reasonable they weren't even offered in the US. Germans like fabric seats cushions a lot more than Americans.
