An item is worth what someone will pay for it... I would absolutely pay $6K in a heartbeat for these if I had $6K in the bank.

Alpha Motoring has a SUPER high standard for his stuff... These seats are near perfect... and include all the mounting stuff that makes them awesome.

They are airbag equipped and mount in the car like they belong...which they do.

They are worth every penny... and really are near impossible to find on this side of the pond.... Some people can't afford these... and thats ok.
I can't afford them... and I'm still happy with the awesome car that I bought from Joseph.

He is one of the most stand up guys on NAM... and likes the finer things for his car.
He'll get his price from someone.... maybe that someone is you... maybe not.

I’m going with a set of custom Cobra Nogaro seats for mine. Considering that these are hecka rare OEM and even have airbags the ask is fully worth it. Unfortunately I can’t afford but wouldn’t think twice if I could come up with the difference.
Beautiful pair of seats you’ve got there.
GLWS. Or just enjoy them for yourself

Someone PLEASE buy these before I do something stupid. I mean, there is no reason a kid has to eat three times a day, right?

I agree, these aren't for everyone, but will be a nice addition to those who want them.

If the kid wants to eat 3 times a day, he should be pulling his own weight.



I can only imagine how fantastic these seats are, they look amazing. I don't live a lifestyle where $6,000 seats are an option for me, but if I did, they'd be mine.

For those inquiring about these seats. I had a set in my old MINI. They are comfortable.

Compared to the GP2 Recaros (which I have) the main difference is slightly more snug fit in these and only gripe would be that they sit taller compared to GP2 Recaros or standard seats. The rails do not allow any real height adjustments. So if you're using to being in the lowest setting in your seats, be ready to sit higher in these. If that's a nonissue, then you'll really enjoy these seats.

I'm looking for a set, but at the same time, not really. I know what I sold my old set for and wish I had just put them in storage as well.

Good luck!
