sparco seats?

[KillerCalypso]

I can get a good deal on Sparco Torino sport seats and im considering buying them. I have never sat in them before they would be brand new. Im 5'11 and weigh about 165. Does anyone have these or know much about them comfort wise, looks, and fit in the e30's?
Let me know what you think guys

I'm almost the exact same size as you (like 1/2" shorter) and I have Torino's. I love 'em. They aren't cheap though. I paid $600 per seat plus sliders, brackets, etc. Very supportive, very comfortable, even great for long trips. If you can afford it, do it.

Sparco Torinos are indeed sexy. So pricey though. Because I'm a cheapy I think for awhile I'm just gonna deal with the best seat cover I can find.

Hey Ted, do you know of any local dealers that have them out for like display?

I am going to be shopping for aftermarket seats in the next few months and my issue is that I can't really sit in any to see if I like them..

James, I know for a fact that Speedware in Redmond has about 15 seats on display that you can sit in. They are good guys down there, helped me out with a lot of stuff. www.speedwaremotorsports.com

Talk to Jeremy Flower at HMS.... I think they carry Sparco's, and might have one you can sit in.

I'd recommend them as well, very knowledgeable. I bought my SRD's from them. Speedware also is one of the few places that has the low profile brackets custom made for E30's. Very important for tall people like me ;)
