We have always loved Recaro seats, they have actaully been installed and used in a ton of special edition european Ford models for many years staring with the Ford Escort RS series rally and street cars. The story of success behind today’s RECARO Automotive Seating began in 1906 in Stuttgart, when 32-year-old master saddler Wilhelm Reutter founded a coachbuilding company to specialise in luxury vehicles, motor cars and English coach harnesses. The basis for today’s company was formed in 1963, when Porsche ceased having its car bodies made by Reutter and took the operation in house. Reutter then changed its trading name to RECARO, created from a play on the words REutter and CAROsserie (vehicle body). The new company specialised in the manufacture of seats and seat components. The first RECARO sports seat was unveiled in 1965 and in motor racing circles RECARO quickly became an acclaimed brand.
We fell in love with them when we first sat in the cloth Recaros during our test drive of the 2012 Mustang Boss 302, and our affections were further bolstered (pun intended) when we had some time behind the wheel of a 2013 Mustang GT with the leather Recaros. Check out our Boss 302 Laguna Edition Recaro Seats Available Here for $2799.99 a Pair. The upgraded seats are somewhat of an expensive option on the Mustang at $1,595, but in our opinion it’s money very well spent. If you’re not quite convinced, then check out this video featuring Tanner Foust, who takes a tour of the Recaro factory then jumps behind the wheel of a 2013 Mustang GT and Boss 302 to put the seats to good use. You’ll learn what exactly goes into the hand-assembled seats and why Tanner Foust thinks a good seat is so important. Just click the play button below.
