Sparco Milanos.....again.

Hi all,
Not another post about how or what, but where. As in where to get the best deal? Does anybody have a hookup in Southern Cal for a pair of Sparco Milano Prestige seats (black, of course)? I am going to have my interior done and have been offered 10% off of retail. Does anybody have any better deals that they know about? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Check around at the official Sparco dealers. I have two in my area (NC) and one said that "according to our agreement with Sparco we cannot sell below list". The other gave me a $270 discount. I ended up paying shipping from SoCal (their main warehouse is located there) and the total cost for the Milano Prestige including the MINi sub frame, runners and tax was $1323.
Check with Randy Webb of Webb Motorsports as he can get the Sparcos at a discount.

mini d - Where'd you end up getting them at? I live in So. Cal. and would like to get the Sparco Torinos. If I can get a small discount and avoid shipping charges, that would be great. Look forward to seeing pics of your interior.

I cheated.....

I ended up getting them from a tenant of mine. It is a wheel shop and I wasn't aware he could get the seats. It was a pleasant suprise as he is located right next to my office so no driving to pick them up somewhere. The name of the place is Alloy Concepts West in Covina. Interior should be done this friday, I will try to post pics after that. (Still don't know how to post pics here )

You guys missed out!

I wish I had seen this post 3 days ago! Sparco just had their first ever "Garage Sale" on saturday - reclining Torinos were $350, black Milano Prestige in leather were $650. They were mostly demo models with a couple scratches or without bags, but there were really good deals over there....

No brackets though - how much do the brackets cost seperate?

Nope I hadn't researched how much they were and I didn't want to risk taking a loss. Just bought a set of gloves...
