Wow, what a price increase.

I have a set with the alcantara inserts that I may be willing to part with when my car sells.

The sport buckets are awesome. Retain factory airbags as well. Around $5-6K used.

Even though Suncoast is offering a good discount on MSRP, they are still really expensive. Do anyone knows any after market seats that look similar to GT2 seats (maybe Recaro) that would fit 997?

Recaros are a good fit for the Porsches and they fit well.

I have a fabric set I'm going to be selling. They are only a few months old.

What's the current price for gently used ?

Probably around $5,500. That's what I've seen them for. I actually saw a used set for the same price that Suncoast was selling them new, a year or two ago but I don't think they sold.

OEM GT3 euro clubsport seats (same as Carrera GT seats) are the best looking and best double duty seat, street and track,for the GT3 in my honest opinion.

I have a set but replaced them with recaro pro racer Hans in carbon Kevlar..... Best track seat with Hans halo.

If you want to be close to the OEM GT3 euro clubsport seats, then get the recaro pole positions in leather or cloth.

Hope this helps
