Default So I still need seats and I am really confused now

I am torn between going over my budget and getting just decent seats.

Below is the last post I had last night, any other suggestions?

I would really like to have a seat that reclines as this is my daily driver, so the Pole Positions are out.

Help?<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1326344.phtml">My previous post on seats</a></li></ul>

If you can't get nice seats then just wait and do it right.

Default I thought that was too good to be true....>>

But $1100 for a pair of Torinos is a screaming deal whether or not it's in the budget or not. You've got to decide if you're doing it for looks or to improve the quality of your seating and driving experience. The old form over function conundrum. The form guys would throw in a $200 pair of snazzy looking ebay seats and say "hey look at me". The function guys would spend the money for a quality seat and be happier in the long run. You get what you pay for.

Default So maybe I should just get the Torinos?

I am almost there, unless I find something else that has the quality but not the pricetag, but I am doubtful that this would be the case, Torino or bust - I think?

Default Get the Torinos. Just supplement your budget a little.

You know the common ways. Take from the kids college fund - sell your wifes jewelry - sell the Dog.

Default Adam.....>>>

gotta agree with Schwing...go for the function. As much as you drive the car, you need to be comfortable. IMO, especially at the track....

Have you actually sat in any of these? I would STRONGLY suggest you do this....one brand/seat works for some, but not for others....
To wait another month, and do it right...it will be very worth it! You can also, buy one now, and buy another in a couple of months so the budget does not take the BIG hit if the price more than you planned..just be sure the material is available...just my nickels worth! ;-)
