I contacted Cargraphic and they can import the front and rear seats. Takes about four weeks.....heres the killer they want 6k for the set. You read that right 6K....oh plus shipping. I am still looking for a second or third source.
I have another guy who gets them....but I think he gets them used so he has to wait until they come up. He quoted me about 4K plus shipping. I will keep you posted:cheers:

I have been in contact with Randy Makee at TJM Motorsports (http://www.tjmmotorsports.com) and he said that they sale Recaro's for the RS6. I am working on getting a price as I type so once I get it I will add it to this post. This is the same gentlemen who can get the Euro RS6 tail lights.
See this (http://www.rs6.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3379) thread.
Here is his contact info.

Are the Recaros or the RS6 logo'd Recaros? I found I could get the regular Recaros but the logo'd ones are more difficult to get and more expensive.:cheers:

They do have the logo's but here is his reply to my price question.
"I hope you are sitting down...before I give the price please note these come
with full electrical, massage, heat, etc. They are right off of the factory
floor. Having said that: $9500.00 each.":rolleyes:
They have massage???

Not RS6 stock in that case...
johann can arrange good pricing on Recaros as well.

Wait...I was quoted $6000 plus shipping for the Euro spec RS6 Recaros with the logo FOR THE FRONT AND REARS. $9500 EACH...ouch sometings not right....either Cargraphics is WAY off or the other guy is just a bit expensive.

I wasn't able to find any kind of Recaro specialist that could supply the Rs6 logoed seats, even Recaro of Germany couldn't give confirmed prices, details etc on the RS6 only Recaroes.
Best bet is to get the Recaroes to match the Rs6 ones, and get a knitting shop to knit a RS6 logo in. It's more hands on, but it's a more feasible option and ALOT more affordable too plus the RS6 in can be in the Rs6 colours! Not plain like the factory ones (?)

I exchanged email a month ago with someone from Achtuning,
who said "Those seats are pretty damn tough to come by...getting them over the pond with the airbags is really a tough thing, because they're an explosive device."

Good point... although there are plenty of people on AudiWorld's S4 forums who've sourced Euro-spec Recaros - some through Achtuning; some via others. Check it out.
