Used older Recaro SPG or newer Sparco REV?

[Ryan Loong]

Hello Sifu's need some advice on whether I should go for a Recaro SPG (MFG 1993) or a Sparco REV (MFG 2018)? Both are around the same price so the price doesn't play such a big role. Reading reviews online many say that the SPG is the better seat but with the age of the seat being a whole 15 years older I'm just wondering if it would be safer to just go with the Sparco instead.

The car would be a daily-ish (driven maybe 3-4 times a week), but I'm willing to sacrifice comfort for a seat that holds me in place. Both seats seem to be in fair condition, although you can definitely tell that the Sparco is in much better shape (sticker condition, condition of the shell, fabric etc)

Wanted to hear your thoughts on which would be the better seat to go for.

You're buying used right?

And both fit you really nicely right?

Buy the one that looks better.

Yup will be buying used.

Will most likely end up going with the Sparco then.

Thanks for the advice!
