F430 Carbon Fibre Bucket Seats
Discussion
I am looking for a pair of Genuine Ferrari Carbon Fibre Bucket Seats in Crema for an F430.
I appreciate finding a pair is not going to be easy but thought I'd post up details just in case someone knows of a set.
NB. I've already contacted Eurospares and my Ferrari dealer just in case they're still available new.

Mate of mine in NorthWest FOC has just got his from GreyPaul Ferrari, on order for 9 last months, £12k approx cost, made by Sparco in Germany in reality, he is very happy with them although not in his car yet, small price to pay considering he owns a sub 10k miles F430 coupe rosso F430 manual which he purchased years ago !!

Great minds think alike...Graypaul Edinburgh are trying to get me a price for my F430 Spider, manual, 13k miles Rosso/Crema. The 2 would make a matching pair!
I was expecting/hoping for 1/2 that price though!
I'd say buckets have to be worth it, especially with the spec of your car.
I was fortunate my 360 was specced with them from new, I now wouldn't buy another Ferrari unless it had the carbon buckets. They are so comfortable and sit nice and low.
Good luck with the search! Don't forget to check eBay from time to time, you never know.

+1 to all you've said, mine came factory spec standard and was a must have option for me although as it is/was my 1st Ferrari it was only a visual preference, having now experienced them and knowing how nice they feel I wouldn't buy another F car without them.

Thanks Chris. I'd seen them advertised on eBay and dropped him a message in case he also had some F430 ones but sadly not.
I want to stay original hence why I'm only after genuine F430 ones.

458 seats in a 430 look hideous, its a big no no!!!
The 458 carbon seats are the same as Scuderia seats with the exception of the upholstery pattern. I have each in my shop right next to each other and they're identical. Gassing Station | Ferrari V8 | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
