Sparco SPX Reclining Seat (non-FIA)
The SPX is handcrafted in Italy using the same technology and materials used for OEM super cars. In fact, the SPX is the first carbon fiber reclining seat available to the public that meets the same specifications required by the OEM manufacturers and weighs only 28 pounds. What this means is that the attention to detail and quality put into the SPX cannot be matched by any other seat manufacturer on the market today.
The Sparco SPX seat represents the ultimate evolution of the sport seat. The SPX uses a combination of carbon fiber and advanced composites that give the driver both comfort and performance in a lightweight package. With the ergonomic shape of the carbon fiber backrest and the seating position of the RTM composite lower, the SPX holds the driver during extreme lateral forces and is comfortable for long road trips.
The SPX is covered in a combination of beautiful perforated and smooth Italian leather. The center of the SPX is covered in Alcantara suede to allow you to gain absolute control of your vehicle and enhance your driving experience. To finish off the performance look, all hand stitching is done in tone-on-tone black with the Sparco logo embroidered in matching black. The gloss finished carbon fiber backrest features a leather pull strap which releases the backrest to fold forward to allow access to a backseat or storage area. The backrest also features a micro adjustment knob that allows you to dial in the perfect driving position. The SPX is sold in driver and passenger versions (left and right).

SPX DIMENSIONS
A LITTLE HISTORY
Sparco has designed and engineered some of the most advanced sport seats in the world, including the first-ever adjustable carbon fiber seat in 1998 for the Lamborghini Diablo. Since then, countless super cars such as the Bugatti Veyron and Lamborghini Aventador have used Sparco design and technology in their vehicles. In addition to seats, Sparco also produces carbon fiber body panels, bumpers, roofs and aerodynamic pieces, in addition to structural carbon fiber parts like stressed-member engine cradles and other chassis parts.
Supplying OEM manufacturers requires every part to pass demanding safety and durability tests. Sparco’s extensive expertise in carbon fiber technology is why they're a Tier One supplier for Alfa Romeo, AMG, Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Ferrari, Koenigsegg, Lamborghini and Lotus to name a few.
