the stock adoptive sport seat is about 65lbs each. i weight the RS seat shell is 8.8lbs. with hardwares installed i think it'll be somewhere around 15lbs each. Porsche could be playing some numbers there.

they do look bulky don't u guys agree? it reminds me the Euro RS4 & R32 seat. maybe they're not carbon but the shape is close.

A nice touch to the interior, I guess a 6speed mt with Sport chrono, Rear diff, PCCB's and sunroof delete would be superb.

Those seats are bad ***! Although, I don't know which seats I like more, these or the CGT seats... That would be a tough choice.

Looks like they have side airbags or something on the side...perfect balance between pure race seat and comfort IMO

They have airbags and manual rake adjustment with power forward and backwards. Definately for the track junkie in mind, Im sticking to the adaptive sports.

Very nice looking seat, however I think I prefer the new Recaro Sportster CS http://www.recaro.com/index.php?id=489&region=5&L=2 along with Recaro's more competitive pricing.
