new car new style buckets imo.
+1 That's where I am.To have the seats that are in the 918 will make this car a little more 'special', giving a further point of difference to the 987.
It's a risk to go that way for me, as I really do like the GT2 buckets from a comfort and appearance perspective, but I think the LWBs will help bolster future values.

What's the weight of the new buckets? Maybe can make room for Burmester
Any weight saving on the actual seat is probably lost by the electric height motor. Be interesting to know whether there is some backrest adjustment on the lwbs via allen key as with the old buckets for those who find them too upright.Unconvinced a 981 Spyder with the lwbs would be worth much more than one with the old buckets.
Also interesting to note whereas on the configurator the lwbs are described as leather/alcantara, the old buckets are leather only....

The 'old' buckets are still leather AND alcantara. You can see them in some of the pictures of Maria S in the blue Spyder.Unconvinced a 981 Spyder with the lwbs would be worth much more than one with the old buckets.

Sorted.
LWBs in, folding heated buckets out.
Have had 3 Spyders and a 911GTS with the same folding buckets so it's good to have a change. I think.
Any idea which seat is more comfortable? Buckets is already a bit of a hard sell to the wife...LWBs in, folding heated buckets out.

Trying to work out the pros and cons. I can live without the heating if the LWB are better. They certainly look very pretty.
