Sports seats

blackbubblebum · 05-11-2008, 01:53 AM

Any dealers just selling the sport seats? I don't need everything from the sports pack I just want the seats without having t spend the extra dough.

BMW Dreamer · 05-11-2008, 07:30 AM

Yah as parts, but you will probably pay $3-4k for the 2 seats.

Might as well get the Sports Package.

Mad Dragon · 05-11-2008, 01:38 PM

It would be cheaper to buy the sport package and get a set of non-staggered wheels.

BMW Dreamer · 05-11-2008, 02:33 PM

Actually just get the sport package.

blacknbean · 05-12-2008, 03:09 PM

or you can wait untill the performance seats start showing up in the US and buy someones old sport seats..thats what i would do. the seats new from the dealer im guessing would cost around 5k

Mad Dragon · 05-12-2008, 05:46 PM

Since they're not DOT approved (no airbags), I doubt we'll see the performance seats in the US.

BMW Dreamer · 05-12-2008, 06:58 PM

Just get the sport package. Its only $1,000. You get the sport seats, thicker steering wheel, black leather M shift knob, awesome black exterior shadowline trim, and the higher top speed. The seats are worth $1,000, the steering wheel is worth $500, etc. etc.

I really think the Sports Package is the only package that's worth the money, IMVHO

The performance seats will never be available in the US from a BMW dealership. BMW NA will not even allow us to order them.

The sports package is $1000 , whats the problem

blackbubblebum · 05-15-2008, 10:46 PM

The whole sports pack is great but I dont like the shadowline trim and I know I'm going to swap the suspension and wheels so practically I just want the seats......

Sport package is only $1,000 which is cheaper than buying 2 sport seats separately.

Spend the 1K dollars on the sports pkg, then sell the wheels, and suspension to help raise money for your mods - someone who didn't get the sports package might want the stuff, plus you'll save money on your hunt for sport seats.

Advanced · 05-29-2008, 01:30 PM

i know what you mean by not wanting the other stuff since they will be replaced anyways . .

but you definitely cannot argue with price . .

getting the sport seats separately will cost more than the sports pkg . . so why not just get the sports pkg and then sell out the rest of the stuff that you do not want . .

this way you will get the sport seats + a little extra money to purchase your other mods!

its a win-win!! do it!~

Mr Chingon · 06-03-2008, 11:57 AM

ok does anybody have a pic of the sports seats cause i amkind of comfused i have seen some seats and i am not to sure if those are the ones you guys are talking about.

blackbubblebum · 06-03-2008, 12:55 PM

Go do a config with the sports package and look at the interior side view on bmwusa.com

I thought they did have the side airbags.

(But not disputing the fact that BMWNA won't import them).

trfortin69 · 03-12-2010, 01:38 PM

I would like just the sport seats, I have everything else retro fitted except for the seats. I can't believe they would be 5k, the car only costs 45k, two seats 1/8 of the value of the car, I can't believe it, they should sell for 1k each at most. anyone have the official price on these? and if we can get them at all.

rramachand · 03-14-2010, 10:04 AM

Get the sport package..Theres tons of people on here who would want to trade you for the shadowline trim if you dont want it

Lester · 03-14-2010, 11:33 AM

You have to get the sport package. It's a no brainer. The shadowline trim will grow on you. The steering wheel is also nice. You will pay way more than the $1,000 for the seats alone. And you won't get much for the non sport seats, as they are not popular. They don't have the tilt adjustment, and lack lateral support.
