BF Seats

Hello porsche fans
I bought a pair of new BF Torino Seats and installed them today.
Just want to know what you think about it...

That is a very purposeful looking interior.

What does the rest of the car look like?

Those look great!

I checked out prices on their website, they look reasonably priced, too. Not sure there is a North American distributor, though?

Oh my goodness. They are just awful. Remove them immediately and send them to me. I will dispose of them in the proper way to avoid you further embarrassment.

Just kidding they look great.

From the Early 911S registry site -

"They are imported by GTS in Las Vegas. Stefan at GTS runs them in vintage rally and racing events and he says they work great. "

He chopped it, I had one in my 930 (converted to a G50) and loved it... assume Bob out in KC stills does.. Best shifter I have ever had in a 911 and I race with a Wevo.

Nice seats. Nice shifter.

For all those discussions I read about manual versus automatic transmissions; just need to post a photo of this setup with no words attached.
