so you like the second one better but the first one has seats you like better? i'd still buy the one you like better (color, condition, etc.). You can always find used seats to put it (stock or racing).

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't all R1's come with suede seats to keep from moving around in corners? I'm pretty sure I read it somewhere, but I could be mistaken.

think you're right, maybe he fucked the seats up and got base replacements.

my r1 has the seats replaced with base, they are still great seats if in good condition imo. pretty firm side support and rather good lumbar, even the material is rather good. so if the car checks out in good order, go with #2 and if you eventually decide you really want a diffent seat, you could always throw a recaro or sparco in.

i can't seem to post with an attachment =\

all right I was just making sure. Yeah go with the one you really want I wouldn't make a decision based on just the seats, but that is just my opinion.

the 2nd car doesn't sound like an r-1 to me. I don't think they had any options available. Things like in-dash cd" sound like a touring or base. A lot of people (including dealers who are supposed to know what they are selling) get the models confused. I could be way off tho
