Recaro seats?
 
Who would like to have the OEM option of recaro seats similar to those found available for the megane rs and golf R?

LOL, your first post. Welcome.

I would just like some good looking, good supporting and light seats. I don't want to change them, until my car gets full track conversion.

All, please keep in mind toyota wants this car to be affordable... with all these options/wish-lists people are throwing in, this will be everything but affordable.

I've seen a lot of: "infotaiment systems", wheels and tires, brembos and now recaros....

I wish the car could come with all of these and still be priced low but I doupt that will happen.

He said OPTION. i hope toyota/subaru lavishes us with options. much better than trying to find aftermarket parts that may or may not fit perfectly. i personally wouldnt get the recaros, but i'd be all over a brembo option.

Not me and doubt it'll even be an OEM option. Look what Scion currently offers as "interior options" and you're looking at shift knobs, door sills, remote start etc.

I understand he said options.. but what I mean is that with all these options the price will no longer be around 20K...

Bring old quote into this thread for newbies... BUT don't expect this to come true in US

I will make sure to make that kind of grade or model. Will be making one that people will say "You gonna go this far?"

well as long as it's not forced upon you, the price will still be 20k-ish... :iono:

but having more options for those who can afford it is better than having a bargain basement sports car...

Nah i dont think they will be an option or me getting one if ever they do i rather spend that money on a full bucket seat, but i will get a brembo option if they do.

i hope they include something comprable to ctr/itr seats. those are great for the street and doable for the track. they should last a while until i convert the car to track only and go for fixed back racing buckets.

WRX seats felt great to me. I'd be good with those. Recaros or any brand name seat is just going to run up the price. But sure, the single option would be fine, just don't bundle it in a massive package.

lol the infotaiment one is saying we want hardly anything just something to plug our phones/iphones in to pplay music 80% people don't even want a screen...

Brembos are on the latest concept so we are hopeing they will come out on the prod...

They had nice bucket seats in the first conp... didn't have a brand but why not a nice branded bucket seat..?

Random_Art 09-19-2011 08:43 PM

why does it matter what brand they are as long as they're comfortable and supportive?
