JETZ,

Since you posted them, Im guessing you bought them. If you did, wouldnt you be bothered by the C6RS logo on them ?

And besides that, I think they are amazing. They look of high quality and very comfortable.

I especially like the "NUT" relief cut into the front.Guys such as my self , that have the LARGER "packages" will certainly appreciate that. Being a native Texan , you know I would not lie !

Very nice. Do they make other colors? I'll bet they cost an arm and a leg or two.

Beautiful seat! I noticed the Pratt Miller logo on the headrest. Is Caravaggio going to be offering this style to the general public?

F***ing beautiful craftsmanship.

I don't need any more information as a pair of those seats are probably worth more than my car is.

Ok guys here is the info you want, and no these aren't mine as they belong to a Pratt & Miller car, but I am drooling.

Aaron: Relax, I haven't got my checkbook out YET!

Frank

These are the new Daytona Race Seats (based on C6 seats)


Option 1. Carbon fibre shell and sides with the belt provision on the top of the

seats and the bottom front. $5,950.00 for the pair

Option 2
Black shells and sides with the belt provisions on the top of the seats and the bottom front

does not have the slot for the sub belt. The cushion is straight across. $4,800.00 for the pair

Option 3 Black shell and sides with no harness provision on top and bottom. So the bottom cushion

$4,295.00 for the pair.

Jetz,

If you are upgrading to the new style Caravaggio seats and looking to sell your GT seats, let me know.

Mike

Very outstanding looking, no doubt. But all u folks think its worth it, 5k seats in a 20k car? eventhough u can afford it.

Jetz no offence buddy i have seen ur car twice, and both times i was drooling how nicely done everything.

Is it bad the thing that really stood out in the pics is the Tim Hortons cup? I miss my Tims!!! It almost makes me want to move back to Canada...just for the coffee.

P.S. Nice seats

Super nice! But whose grounded battery is that in the last picture? Hope it doesn’t belong to you.
