There's a dug-out section of seating at Benfica's Estadio La Luz (Stadium of Light) in Lisbon that sports Recaro seats. I believe the Old Trafford Stadium (where Manchester United plays) and several other soccer stadiums throughout Europe have Recaro seats in place for the home and visiting teams and staff.

Default correct price?

I'm a little confused, $5k? Is that paying some crazy shipping fee? It's only $1800 in leather ($1400 in cloth) at an authorized retailer ()http://www.racechairs.com/category_s/38.htm
The most expensive Recaro option I can see is the Sporster CS in leather at $2449.

At $5k, the same site offers actual office chairs made from authentic Ferrari seats. Porsche seats are as cheap as $2500.

cool, was this one you made yourself or something you bought from Momo? I've only ever seen the Recaro and Cobra ones and then recently the Pininfarina chairs if you can count those as racing chairs.
