The Torsen has been available for a long time. I'm considering it or the Eaton.

I want to see the '13 GT Recaros. I *think* they're leather like the GT500, but without the GT500 markings. If so then I am buying them ASAP.

I meant the ability to just buy one and install it yourself.

It's just one big HP party 'til the Gubment comes and takes our power.

Exactly! Get my 650hp stang and watch as the goberment makes it impossible to make any more

Steve, you might want to take a look at the cost of the recaros. It's like 1500 bucks. That's steep. I will be happy with my leathers

The 2013 is just ok. No kona, terrible black plastic license plate surrounds...makes me glad I got my 2012.

Btw, side note... Wife and i test drove a 2012 focus SE today. What a surprisingly fun and spirited car to drive. Almost traded my aging 2002 civic right then and there. That chassis is amazing. Ford is reeeeeally impressing me lately.

Nothing in leather at the quality of Recaro.

I'll either get the GT Recaros or the Recaros that come in the TT-RS, or Sparco Milano Prestige. But I'd prefer to get the GT Recaros since they retain the side airbags.

If they are only $1500 then I am jumping on them.

Picture of the seats?

Matt they are the same as the GT500 or Boss 302 Recaros in style. The GT500s are leather and the 302 are suede. Not sure what the finish is going to be like for the GT option. I'm hoping leather.
