That may be true but the "Recaro" seats in my Boxster are nothing like real sport driving seats and would be pretty poor on the track.

I've been looking at seats for the past month. I've sat in almost everything there is; Recaros,Momos,Corbeaus,Sparco,OMPs & Sabelt. The Recaro Pole Position is an awesome seat! All the Corbeaus,Momos & OMPs all look and feel similar. I'm going to look more into the Corbeau FX-1 Pro and see if I can get it in black microsuede...then maybe just maybe I'd buy one. Weights 16lbs,hehehehe.

The ultimate seat is the gt3 cause it looks AWESOME! Fits snug and looks classy,just look at the crest in the headrest,it fits in perfectly with the car's interior.

They are awesome and have GREAT customer service. Not to mention free shipping and no sales tax. From what I understand all their stuff is shipped to you directly from the manu. so you don't have to worry about your seat being all scuffed up like that would happen if you bought them at a local shop.
