Guess another reason not to want ot drive a GP I thought the Sparcos weregooing to be making it into the GPs; what happened to the JCW lettering on the JCW seats in the bottom photo?

 

The US JCW GP doesn't even get Recaros ... just cloth+leather sport seats

It's there ...

 

they were ther yesterday because I have been looking for a used set hmmmm

 

I am almost certain those are Sparcos

 

This I knew, but still held out hope for a RHD GP being fun to go for a ride in.

 

I have the same sources as everyone else motoringfile/whiteroofradio/NAM etc.

I'm not sure that MINI still sources the JCW seats through Sparco. I think you're correct in that both the current JCW and JCW GP seats are Recaro's.

 

I've kept doing research since yesterday, I haven't found anything. There is no company or an individual that offers importing those seats to the US. This is the only thing I found, but there is no word about the rear seats and they are soooo expensive.

people have been buying sets of the "sparco Milano prestige for about $3K

 

Do you think it's a good price?

 

kind of rich for my blood but it is on my "wish list"

 

Spend the money on a head and really get the car to scoot.

I agree, the $3K seats will probably be the last thing I do....... I want the car to run and handle as good as I can get it....(taking into account driveability) first
