Racing seats don't look good in the 4th Gen F-Bodies. Why downgrade to those seats? Makes your ride look like a Ricer wannabe.

Those look cheaply made. To those who have posted racing seats don't have to be a downgrade from the stockers if you choose a nice looking set.

Well what if you autoX or do a lot of track days at a road course and need an instructor to ride along with you? And I'd be afraid to get white cloth, especially in a car! Might be nice for hot days but cleaning them would be a biatch! Those might work well if you are building a cockpit for a racing simulator, especially for the price

Would look pretty stupid to just have one racing seat unless it was NEVER driven on the street and was completely caged up inside. Most people do get two matching seats if they're weekend warrior type. Good quality racing seats do have their purposes too... lightweight... harness... etc. Just because some dude in neon has lime green racing seats doesn't mean they are now rice.
