dover Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Anyone have these seats or sat in them? http://www.carid.com/2010-chevy-camaro-racing-seats/sparco-r333-series-street-racing-seats-46413955.html Looking for options for my 5th gen, ditching the 55b seats in it!

TurboRust Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Doesn't the car weigh like 4k pounds anyways? Keep the creature comforts and make 500 whp. Problem solved ... that is unless you don't like the feel look of the stockers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dover Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Not a huge fan of the stockers, looking for something with functionality plus better looks. The factory recaros are gorgeous but they are $5k -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiOn19s Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Food for thought on the factory recaro's. If like the factory recaro's that come in Porsche's there will always be a high demand for these seats, they will depreciate very little in the years to come, they will become rare and go up in value when they are no longer produced. The factory recaro's I have for my car were $2800 new when they were being produced. They also made an almost unlimited amount of them. Now that they are out of production decent used sets are going for $3200-3500 and they are only going to continue to go up in value and if I wanted to sell them they'd be sold in a matter of days.

Trouble Maker Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Whatever you do, make sure you keep the stock seats to put back into the car if/when you go to sell it. Stock seats can be exceptionally expensive in modern cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad thought Andy, I have been looking for a set but they are rare even now. GM has them available for $2500 a seat :fuuuu: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattKatz Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Ive Had A couple of different models of SParcos in the past.....and some were "HEAVIER" than the stock seat I replaced with them. You might want to do a little measurement on your stock and get a weight from Sparco.....I find it funny there was no weight listed on the page you linked.....Im betting these are heavy pigs.
