GT3 Seats in Central Virginia?

I have been thinking about getting some GT3 seats for my base boxster for some time now, both to save weight and to lower my sitting position. I have a long torso and end up looking at more of the frame at the top of the windshield than I would like with the stock seats. My problem is that I have never had a chance to sit in them to try to figure out how comfortable they are or are not.

I plan to use the seats for both around town and longer drives. I have checked with our local Porsche dealer and my indi mechanic, and they have not been able to come up with a car with the seats for me to try. Are there any members in the Central Virginia (Farmville) that have the factory GT3 seats I could try out. BTW, I am 5'10" and weight about 173lbs these days, not sure how snug they are going to be for me. Also, any comments about living with the seats for a daily driver would be appreciated, thanks,

Ed
