New Seat Option

I was playing with the Porsche Configurator and noticed a new sports seat option. It is very close to a racing seat. Same price as the adaptive sports seat $3050.

Spendy, but kinda cool.

I have to say I love those wheels. Not sure if they work that well on a Boxter, but on a 911 they are awesome. I also think that pics don't do them justice, you have to see them in person.
