Item Condition: Used

Porsche GT2 Sport Buckets. These came out of a 997 GT3 that was wrecked at the track. As a result, the driver's seat is 'tweaked' a bit as you can tell in pictures (seats are reversed in photos from how they came out of the car - driver's seat is on the left looking at it from the front).

The passenger seat is perfect as nobody was riding shotgun, but the right side airbag did deploy and will need to be replaced.

$4500 or best offer.

Would much prefer local pickup but will ship to continental USA at buyer's expense.

The carbon is in perfect shape and it appears to be structurally sound, the seat is just tweaked. The passenger seat is perfect as nobody was riding shotgun, but the right side airbag did deploy and will need to be replaced. $5500 or best offer. Would much prefer local pickup but will ship to continental USA at buyer's expense. Lots of other parts coming up for sale. Schroth harnesses, harness bar, wheels, brakes, etc.
I always respect your contributions on this forum but that tweaked seat needs to go into the garbage this minute and not be put into the ecosphere where some unsuspecting buyer may eventually rely on it to save their life in a crash and not know its history full stop

Same goes for the harness or anything else used to save the drivers life - they are all one time items

Yeah I mean I'll give 500 bucks for it and make a racing simulator seat and paint on the bottom of it in big letters it's a wreck seat - just worry someone else won't and will try to spin it to make a buck on the cost of someone's safety

More people should take note of this post, having broke many pieces of safety equipment in a different world; safety pieces are meant to do a one-time job, and do it well. After that, everything is compromised and the functional purpose is no longer in tact.

Hope the driver was fine, but would not trust it outside of that.

Valid points, thank you guys. Price reduced to $4500. That's about the value of the one good seat.

But you don't have one good seat, correct? One is tweaked and the second has a deployed airbag? Just trying to understand before I make an offer
