ill trade you my mk3 supra for that seat if you ship. its white and turbo. all stock. acctually my gf will trade you her supra. it has two seats. that way better than 1 nice one. plus if you sit in that one you go nowhere semi comfortably, but if you sit in these one you will so fast on what feels like a sofa..........................its fully optioned.. think about it.

oh yeah.....
Holy mother of all scores.

Wow.

I would forgo Ebay and join some Ferrari boards and place some feelers there t see if anyone would bite.

The only thing i would worry about on ebay, are people afraid to bid thinking it was a stolen car seat, no matter how detailed the auction is.

I also might put the copy of the ferrrari receipt on the auction if you do go that way, try to legitimize the seat.

Great score.

But still, Ebay for something as rare and high ticket as that with a extremely limited audience gives me the heebie jeebies. Ferrari owners don't buy parts on ebay. They buy them from the dealer or other Ferrari owners.

Did you try to offer the seat back to the dealer for a decent price? (1/2 off retail?).

Can you add more pictures to the listing? You might want to show a closeup of the part number/serial like you did us as well as show a picture of the invoice.

Just gives more info and makes the seller less suspicious (especially the serial number picture).

Yeah, don't be deceptive though. Be sure to post the one that says no fatties. Wouldn't want someone the buyer to have to return it because you didn't clearly state it was no fatties only.

Eh? No pics of the FIA label and the prancing horse? You better add them. That's a money maker right there, otherwise the ad looks like it's for a plain ol' omp seat w/ carbon fiber.

the light is too bright on it. I thought it would be ok cuz you can zoom in and see it. but the eBay viewer doesnt zoom enough.
