Which way to go...Houndstooth vs Recaro??

[BlackbirdM3]

Are those just stock sport seats reupholstered to say recaro? I thought Recaro didn't even make the stock sport seats?

Either way back on topic, I would go with the Recaros over the Houndstooth.

As far as I know, those are just the stock E30 M3 seats that have been redone. I was under the impression that they were made by Recaro. They have the front edge that is adjustable, as well as being able to be tipped forward or back, and they are reclining.

I find them super comfortable. I've done 10 hours straight in them (ok, I had to stop for fuel at about the 4.5 hr mark.) and I'll say they are the only seats I can spend that much time in without my back getting tweaked. In every other set of seats, I'm only good for 4 hours at most and when I hit that, I pretty much can't sit or drive any more, my lower back just says no more.

I have recaros and will never look back.

Recaro, dear god, there is NO QUESTION, Recaro.

The day I put that first pair of MkII Recaros in my E30 was the day I was the most comfortable in my car I have ever been. I think E30 sport seats are some of the most uncomfortable seats ever. Granted, that comes down to each person (I'm 6' 1", 230 lbs. and not a small guy), but you just can't go wrong with them.

Wait until you guys see the new set that's going in my car in about 1-2 months when I get them back from JJ Custom Interior...

Also that rear seat looks just like a vert rear seat.

That is what E30 M3 rear seats look like

how about mk2's trophy recaros? they're durable, looks great, and you can match the interior with black doorcards.

Recaros reupulstered with houndstooth.

The seats themselves look great, but if they said recaro one more time I would start charging them for ad space. I didn't mean to insult. The same interior sans advertising would make my jaw drop.

Yeah, I have to agree. A little too much Recaro, but I didn't do it, I got the car that way, and I'll get over the fact that they say Recaro a few too many times.

You are the first person to dislike it. The pics don't do it justice.

To each their own.
