The other one though, vhroooom!

It amazes me how the fit of different body panels on the C5 is so inconsistent even on a good one. The 944 carries nice even body lines around the car, the C5 has some parts jammed in with no spacing, and then large gaps in other places. I think I can look past that with how it drives.

Just be aware, the C5 and C6 are narrow between the door panel and tunnel. Get a list of seats that are known to fit before you fall in love with any. When I sold seats they were one of the hardest cars to get seats in.


I know cobra has one that fit, but it was like $1800/ Seat. Same with some of the recaros. If you are in the market PM me and I’ll send you the names of the distributors I worked with.
