I know the stock seats, both in a Boxster and 911s are good (even great) but I've sat in the sport seats and they're awesome and I think they look better too. They also don't seem to be as outrageously priced an option compared to most from Porsche.
Thoughts?
They are great and so glad I ordered them, I guess allot of people just dont know better until they sit in them. Fewer have the Porsche crest on them, and even fewer are heated. I love my seats I will never go with out.
I think they look 100% better, especially with the body color backs. I also think that they are overall more comfortable on long trips. Here is a pic of mine.

See, that's why we're all a little different. Not such a big fan of the body color painted backs. It's like bringing the outside of the car inside with you. I much prefer the plush look of the leather. That said, do they offer the sport seats with a leather back in the sport seat option?
Noticed that, too, Dell. Weird.
I found the sport seats too confining for the street. I like the shoulder freedom and adjustability of the power seats. Sport seats also push my shoulders forward a bit. Not bad for track, no good for the sunday drive.
I bought the 987S originally as a track toy. Even then I did not order the sport seats. It would be inadequate for a track car. I got the basic S seat, with the plan to buy racing Recaros or GT3 seats sometime down the line.
The irony of it is, I now like the 87S better as a runabout topdown street car, and am working on the C4S as a track car. Who knows. I may still get the GT3 seats for the 987S, and go get the whole GT3 CAR
.
I'm not a very large person some might say average 6' and I don't find them conforming to my body shape very well. Then again I'm not that fond of the standard seats I have in my 996 either. I just think the lumbard and bolster on both seats are in the wrong place for me. I am considering getting the Cobra Mistrano, but I'm not that fond of a aftermarket seat in my car or really want to take out a perfectly fine seat out either.
Thanks for the pic. The seat looks nice. Looks like it holds you in the seat tighter and molds to form. I will consider those, I have been wanting to replace my stock seats.
