All leather recaro seats are pretty expensive, once you get into the asm lineup that price doubles and then some with this limited edition. Even used they fetch about 2k. Only downside (excluding price) is recaro rails absolutely blow on every level.

So your basically saying there is a huge markup on these "limited" seats versus their regular models?

The high price is a way to make them more exclusive

Now I'm considering a pair of these seats. Black leather with red stitch. Going to test fit before ordering a set.

Someone awhile back posted pictures of them installed, they looked really out of place inside of the FD due to the shape.

^^^you do realize that those are 100% fake, right?
notice the padding, the lettering, and the fact that there is no fia sticker on them?
oh, and bride is NOT made in taiwan, they are made in japan.........
if anyone buys them, i feel sorry for them, god knows that they would probably fall apart in ANY sort of collision........
