Nice I just saw your car in HCI, actually bought it just for your cars feature. I also remember when you first posted the two-tone in another forum here on I-club. A couple guys bashed the two-tone and your wheels, but I think the car looks beautiful!

Damn nice car. Seat compliment it perfectly. Need to see more of it. Got anymore pics?

You need the reclaining *****, it seems they're not attached / missing.

Let me know you're address I will send you some in an envelope (just to make the seats 100% perfect).

The new A8 (successor) will be available very soon. We show the new seat first time at the IAA in Frankfurt but the A8 you have is THE SEAT.

If you want to have something really special, the SPX (STI OEM seat in Japan) is also available in the US very soon.
Down side - really theight (it's designed for the Japan market)

Costs: $5000 per seat shipped to your place
why so expensive?
Ultra light wheight / Ultra low seat position
Super stiff seat structure like a pro racing seat
Leather in OEM color
Plug'n Play with adapters with belt buckle etc.
Limited to 50 sets!

Uli
Sent you a PM, thanks!

Confused

Hey, something I don't understand... You said that the seats weren't in the car yet, and that you just got them back etc. How were they in the car for the HCI magaizine shoot that was most likely months ago, but you just got them back? Am I missing something? I don't get it, is this thread old? Well, like I said earlier, beautiful car, looks great.
