    It seems, that there are optional 1-piece carbon bucket seats for the TDF , that not many cars have.

    What I want to ask is if someone has them on his car and are they as comfortable as the 2-piece carbon seats, that we all know from the F12/812/488 and so on...

    They are Ultra, Mega rare.

    So far I have seen only three Tdf's fitted with them. I'm the one on board who has an interest in them and posted them everytime I could

    The tdf's fitted with those can be counted on the fingers of one hand IMO

    They are the same as the seats found in the Sp1/Sp2

    Fchat member "Chaussurecowboy" had them in his tdf but he doesn't seem to active on board anymore

    I remember him saying that when he ordered his tdf, that option was so underground, so obscure, that even the Ferrari staff didn't know what he was talking about, he had to show them a picture

    Were also available in the 812 Superfast, at least on the option catalog.

    I posted a picture recently of a new car I discovered with them But can't remember when and where

    Do you plan to buy one ?

    I've sat in one. I didn't like it. Forces one to sit too upright and not adjustable. I wouldn't pay more for less comfort.

    My F12 Berlinetta has the normal comfort seats and since I always loved the "regular" carbon seats (had them in my 430 Scud and 458), I always considered buying a set for my F12. However, the prices of these have gone absurd and I don't really want to pay such an amount. But I am now being offered these 1-piece seats for half the price of the 2-piece ones, so I am wondering if it will make sense or not. I really do NOT want to sacrifice any comfort, or at least not too much.

    What I like about the "regular" carbon seats is that not only they are supportive, but they are also super comfortable. And also I like to get the seat all the way to the back before I get out of the car. I do this now also, since I have position 3 on the memory on the longest way to the back possible, but it was much easier for me when the seats were manual in my old cars.
