...Picked up an Evo. It begins....
...so I'm back into the world of imports and man, it's long overdue. 15' Octane Blue GSR w/ one huge downside. No Recaros...and on that note, if you're selling your stock Recaros (preferably leather but cloth will do) let me know. Also, anyone swapped out their stock seat for racing seats on a 15? Thanks all....

Nice! I really love the blue Evo's, so pretty

You're ahead of the game on me, I'm still on the prowl for a good one...

HA! That was my gripe too. Gave up on trying to find a new 14. Finding Recaros for a decent price seems difficult. I hate the stock seats.

...not feeling the stock seat myself. Their comfortable but not lateral support. Not a fan of eBay...hoping someone local will show up, willing to let theirs go...we'll see.

Nice pick up, octane blue FTW!!! I love mine. And finding seats shouldn't be too difficult, they pop up quite a bit on here. Make sure to look on other forums as well. I've considered selling mine for some recaro profi's, just can't make up my mind.

...thanks for the advice. Are yours leather?....thought about aftermarket racing seats but wasn't sure if they could be seamlessly intergrated (not generating any error codes).

You're insane lol. The X's recaros are one of the most comfortable oem seats I've ever sat in in my opinion

...appreciate the link. It's a lot of coin, but awesome deal. For the money though, I wonder if an aftermarket option would be just as good, maybe even better.

Strange that Canada has the Recaro seats in the 2015 model but the US doesn't.
