should I install the 6 way power Recaros in the 1LE or sell them to one of you guys? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well after 3 years of buying ZL1/1LE parts, I finally have a brand new set of power SS Recaros! I just purchased a dedicated track car, so now I am not sure about keeping them...What do you guys think?

Love mine !!! Great option in my opinion .. So them bro

What's the 1LE going to become now that you've got the dedicated track car? Daily driver? Fun vehicle? Going to take road trips in it?

Don't think the answers matter much as, I'd say keep them and enjoy them under almost any circumstance. I've replaced stock seats with Recaros in a couple vehicles so far, and never regretted it. If you're going to be behind the wheel for hours at a time, the Recaros will be better.

The stock SS seats aren't bad, I quite like mine, but I'll have an eye out for some manual Recaros until I find some, or just buy them new from Chevy. There are higher priorities, but they'll get there eventually.

I wish they weren't so freking spendy :(

backeddy · 06-21-2015, 10:42 PM

I will probably still track it now/then, just depends on how much fun the 944 track car is playing with Miatas

Wes137170 · 06-21-2015, 11:37 PM

how much would you sell them for if you did?

Hilflos · 06-22-2015, 07:40 AM

Looking forward to your findings on the 944 vs. Miata fun factor.

I had a 13 2SS/RS with leather seats. Yes I liked them.
I now have. 14 2SS/RS 1LE with Recaros. I love the feel and the comfort 100 times more in the Recaros. I would keep them.
If you track, sell the Recaros, with the money buy some nice track style.
But dude, the Recaros are freakin nice!
Tip, don't smoke, one ash, well it sucks.

There are manual Recaros? Didn't know, mine are power...

Yeah smoking in vehicles is a bad idea! It absolutely kills resale value too...Thanks for the info on the 2 seats, not sure what I am going to do....

Yes the z28 has manual seats to save a few pounds...........

Depending on price I would be interested....but chances are if you just got them they won't be discounted. If you plan on tracking the car at all I would suggest keeping the recaros as the factory SS buckets don't do a good job of keeping you in place.

SASQUATCHelvis · 06-23-2015, 10:44 AM

They're so comfy! I love mine. Great for DD and track use.
