Evo Recaro Seats

Who knows exactly what model these are? I'm trying to sell them, but I don't know what a fair price is for the leather ones, I've gotten many offers but don't know how much the seats normally go for, I searched for the seats online, couldn't find it. Thank you!

Do a search on here and that will give you fair market value. They are not a typical aftermarket seat you can buy from recaro that I know of.

Call your service department and ask them how much they cost new.

You'll not going to get 2k for them, especially when you get new high end racing seats for less. Remember these are OEM.

Don't ask what they cost from Mitsu, because then you will cry at how little you will be getting in comparison.

LMAO....dude 2K is ridiculous if you want an honest opinion. They generally sell for about 900-1000 for fronts. Not slamming your price but man.

As far as being worth more , just the opposite they are a more "factory" seat therefore not as costly as other Recaro's.

I remember reading somewhere, if you add up the total cost to build a car from the manufacture parts bin, it's four or five times more then buying the complete car from a dealership.

hahaha, guess again! Replacement Recaro seats from Mitsu - $5,800 +/- EACH. Granted, this is with the dealership installing them. Still... damn.

I think in all fairness even for SSL seats in perfect shape I would guess 1200 is the most u'd get......for 2000 you could have two recaro SPG and 500 bucks left over...so don't get offended or anything but you will be keeping them at that price.
