Default Apsis: Do you like this seat???????????

Hi All,

We are working on our SuperDeluxe Sport Seat and when it's finished it will like what you see in this picture.

Do you like this seat? Like to hear your opinion.

Our SuperDeluxe Sport Seat will be ready in about 6-8 weeks. This seat will be perfect to work with our SuperDeluxe Steering Wheel as a very prestige package.

We are also developing another nice Race Seat for the customers who go to the track. It will be ready in about the same time.

Here is the picture----------

I don't like the circular indentations, but the general shape is beautiful. I'm betting this is another one of those mods I won't be getting, but would like. My favorite seat material is leather with small perforations on the centers, with solid leather or alcantara for the bolsters.

No problem, we can make perfectly to your spec.

Don't worry about those insert. It's even easier to make it without.

I love the seat design and have project plans that include it, but it's not a C5 or C6. I don't think the design of the seats flows well with the late model 'vette interiors.

Just my opinion.

In black of course....not a fan of the lighter colored leather seats.

Don't think the pattern on the seats will look good on the back of your SO's legs after a drive, remove the circles as mentioned before, might be all it needs.

The picture is just to show you the style. Don't focus on the light leather. We have Nappa Leather in matching all C6 colors.

Not crazy about the looks but they do look supportive for hard cornering yet comfortable enough for daily driving... depending on the price and color I would be tempted as I am not that impressed with the factory seats other than the red z06 embroidery- will they come with embroidery options?

What frame would you be building these on? If it's the factory frame, that doesn't help the fact that the factory frame is crap! If it's not the factory frame, will it fit in the car since most aftermarket seats do not fit with the seatbelts mounted in their factory locations. A little more info on these subjects would be appriciated.

I would like to see a race seat. I currently have sparcos in my car, but if you want a nice race seat, we currently only have one choice.

Actually you have a couple; Caravaggio's and Corbeau A4's done in leather.

Personally, I'm not a fan of those or the Sparco's for a street driven car as they are not that comfortable.

Jersey, will these mount to the stock frame rails ?

Tony IMO
Caravaggio's and Corbeau are not in the same ball park. You would be surprised how comfortable the sparcos are, I drove cross counrty with them, and I drive to VIR and Summit point 3 or 4 times every summer and they really are comfortable.
