wanted Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I'm thinking of getting rid of the tan leather in mine, in favour of black (seats, steering wheel and gearknob). I'm not a big fan of the tan but the car was right when i bought it so i wasn't going to let the seats put me off. I'm wondering what i could get for my seats with a bit of wear on them, as i've not seen any for sale? What are they worth ish? Quote
Keyser Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/66667-oem-orange-leather-seats-for-sale/ had these up for a few weeks no takers yet. Quote
wanted Posted February 13, 2013 Author Posted February 13, 2013 Hmm, I was thinking they would be a good upgrade for non gt cars. Maybe everyones like me and just tolerates rather than likes the tan leather Quote
370Ad Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Just checked eBay completed listing's and none have sold recently unfortunately. Some black ones up for £495. Quote

martinmac Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I paid £400 for mine three years ago. Quote
rabbitstew Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 They are bit marmite. New, the original owner would have forked out about £650 extra on top of the GT pack price to "upgrade" from black or grey leather to the Alezan orange. But, they arnt everyones cup of tea. When I bought my 313 it had those in it, and being a roadster they didnt look too bad, as the middle of the seat has that fishnet venting stuff, so it breaks the orange up. Have to say I wasnt too sure initially but they really grew on me, and set the twilight grey paint work off a treat. I think the black would have been a bit too plain. When I bought my beemer last year I had to choose between black leather or bright red leather. Have to say I opted for the black as being the "safer" option for when it comes to resale time. Quote
KyleR Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I want to swap my black for some Alezan, but being in Northern Ireland makes it a bit difficult because one or both parties would have to go without the car for a few days. Quote
wanted Posted February 13, 2013 Author Posted February 13, 2013 I think the logistics of it would be a massive headache mate, and quite expensive. Quote
4RE Leather Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) I value my Anthracite ones at £500 top wack and thats on a good day, and they are like new. Not cracked or filthy:) What you have planned is perfectly dooable so go for it. Edited February 13, 2013 by 4RE Leather Quote
Flex Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I never knew they woz an extra when the car were New like, score! Quote

wanted Posted February 13, 2013 Author Posted February 13, 2013 Its a shame, I doubt I'll find someone closer who wants to swap Quote

Ewan27 Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Hi, I'm interested in swapping my Black GT seats for the Orange. I'm located just over (the right side) of the border. 20 minutes from Carlisle. Where are you mate? Quote

I might be interested if they tickle my fancy. I'm in the east midlands mate, Nottingham, so that's bit of a drive for me, but still might be up for it if i've got nothing on. I'll have a check and get back to you Be nice to meet a few z owners, and i'm having my exhaust fitted a few days before so it would need an outing . although my seats are in good nick, they are not mint and have drivers bolster wear.

14N Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Be great if you could make it to the meet mate. Nottingham to Beckett's Farm (Postcode B47 6AJ) is just over an hour (apparently) straight down the M42. There's a few of us meeting at Beckett's and the pub we're going to is about 10 mins away. Be a perfect way of running your new exhaust in..... Quote
