Recaros or full leather?

  1. A mate is after a 265 but wants leather Recaros , I think full leather is better
    Has anybody had both ?
    Whats the general opinion?
    Thanks
     
  2. When you say "full leather" do you just mean the standard leather seats? I think the Recaros make the car feel a bit more special.

    The only downside is that there's no heated version of the Recaros, so if you've bought the car as a daily driver it's not quite a cosy in the winter.

    If I was speccing a new car now, I'd always take the Recaros.
     
  3. Yes full standard leather, i have full standard leather and the heated seats are a must on cold mornings for me
     
  4. Recaros is a must be on those cars, like the Cup package. Without the bucket seats and without the diff its not the same special car at all. Ive just recently drove 3000km on 3 days on Recaro Sportsters (leather ones), and i didnt felt at once that my ass or back are tyred.
     
  5. With the alcantara upholstery you really don't need heated seats - it's not cold leather you're sitting on.

    Now the un-heated alloy gear knob, that's another matter...

    I've had both, I prefer the full leather, they wear better than the cloth and for me, I prefer the look of the full leather.

    Mine is a weekend/ track toy.
     
  7. I've heated Recaro CS seats for my 250 Cup :smile: my car came with Cloth seats though so I bought the Recaro CS with airbags and heated seats.
     
  8. Mines had cloth recaros, then full leather recaros and now leather/alcantara recaro pole positions. My honest opinion out of the 2 recaro cs seats is the leather looks betters and lifts the interior but the cloth recaro where nicer to sit it. Standard sport seats are more comfy but as said above these cars need recaros
     
  9. I've got leather recaros in mine, and they really are incredible. I still get a bit excited just looking at the seats haha!
     
  10. +1, you never get tired looking of them, haha.
