The carbon seats are a big factor in making the 2 seater seem more special. Just like the carbon seats in the MCV make it feel that bit more special than a normal GS.

Not fused about the back seats in the 4 seat Stad myself. I've never had anyone in the back of the MCV, nor my Ghibli Cup, nor the Shamal, etc. 2 seats are plenty for me in a 2 door car.

It's a slippy, cheap, plastic thing, angled too - parcels shoot off in all directions. "Weight saving" the salesman told me.

It's not fair of you to refer to my kids that way. True, but unkind.

2 seater, kids in the back, tut, tut, tut, lol...... Just wish I could afford such a beast!

There are two small cushion type things, I assume from the factory - probably to stop the parcels shattering as they skid off the shelf. No seat belts though, officer.

You could always add rear seats like the black one that Dicky had for sale....Think I cost around 10k to do mind you. Wonder where that car is now...Nuvola had it for sale for whole and Dicky.

man, those seats are pretty. they look a heck of a lot thinner than the stock seats too – perfect for more legroom in the back for us 4-seaters. anyone know where to get those for less than an arm and a leg?

 

[Andyk]

Not from Maserati as they will want and arm, leg, Kisndey and your wife.....I may be wrong be I seem to remember them being about 3k.

I remember that car, I think one of the owners had issues with insuring it though due to the change passenger capacity

The ones in my Audi take up more room than standard seats. And also cost enough that if/when they get stolen, cars are now write offs!

I would bet the cost from Maserati/Ferrari would be well into 5 figures.

 

[Andyk]

3k each that is....

I think my next Maser will be a strad, 2 seater, tough luck if the kids can't come

they are made by Sparco, there is a sticker underneath them. Ill see if I can find the photo I took of that. They are common to the Enzo Ferrari too. Try googling "Sparco Ferrari Enzo seat" and you will probably find them cheaper than the 4k+ each that Maserati spares places seem to ask for them.

holy ****, that's nuts. I just looked at the stock seats, and they're actually pretty thin... oh well!

4k? The MCV seats are £12k each!

Well I'll be honest here. I had no idea what a MCV was, but tooling around here I believe it is the Gransport MC Victory? The photos of those seats look exactly like the stradale ones. I am guessing same part number other than trimmings.

The MCV has the seats from road going version of the MC12. And as far as I can tell, they are the same as those in the matching Enzo, which list at £13,995 each (plus VAT). Ouch!!!

Hence I'll be trying very hard not to break mine, nor put on any more weight.

I sat in Miles' at LE Mans when he wasn't looking. Felt a special place to be sat after my 4200!!!

They are a lovely seat no doubt about it but 14k...As always with Maserati on prices for stuff like this they are having a laugh. The seats are no more special than the Stradale ones and they are loads cheaper...say cheaper...Still a **** load of money mind you.
