ID: Used Asphalt M/T for sale 2k miles

Like another person on this forum, the seat is killing my back, and I need to sell my FRS . The car is amazing, but my back is more important.

Car has upgraded BeSpoke radio. Looking for $24500. Firm on this price. Looking for local sale.

Will get pictures as soon as possible.

I have seen this more than a few times around here. I do have low back issues, but the seats seem to hit me in the correct places so I feel fortunate.

If you love the car why not grab a recaro, cobra, sparco, OPM or any other high quality after market seat? For less than the depreciation hit you would take selling the car you could get and amazing seat that fits you exactly as you need it to. Just a thought.

Do the replacement seats retain the seat airbags?

I would def. Look into that. But I don't want to give up safety for comfort.

Why is everyone recommending rigid seats to replace the rigid seat? Walk into a Bentley dealer and let them know you are in need.

Seriously glws though!

Nope, the would not have airbags. I'm not recommending any of these companies Race applications. I'm recommending their incredibly comfortable street options with multiple lumbar adjustments.

The Recaro Sportster CS supposedly can utilize factory airbag plugs. I don't know if that means it has airbags or if it just tricks the car into thinking it has airbags, but either way. Maybe an Evolution X Recaro seat could be adapted? Or perhaps you could have the foam under the seat modified to give you more support? I've got a bad back, too, but I drive my MR2 with a Recaro fixed bucket, so I'm guessing my herniated discs don't hurt as much as yours....

Would you be interested in trading for a very comfortable 08 WRX hatch?
