I used to work at the 3rd largest Mercedes Benz dealer in the USA. To paint a picture, we sold 400new and 200 used Benzes a month. Located in Bethesda Maryland, our clients were basketball players, attorneys, congressman, CHief of staffs for the president etc....Point being alot of people with alot of money. Yet one thing stood out to me more than anything. These people buy 100k cars and put Dolce & Gabanna cloths on their kids backs and talk on satelite phones,...YET, they show up with CHEAP 39.00 child seats , some that are recalled and many that test mid pack with safety test.

Back to this world. We spend 1000.00 on front mounts, 2k on coilovers, 2k on body kits, 3k on wheels,....YET............our kids who we adore sit in some times at best a Eddie Bauer child seat. Seats that test and fair OK in the NTSB child safety test.

Recaro has been the leader in seat design for more than 40 years. Starting with aerospace and transportation seating and most recognizable in racing venues across the planet. Recaro has had a successful child seat offered in the world market and now this new line has become available in the USA.

Introducing the Recaro Young Style seat for children 3-12 years old, or 30-80lbs.

Do you have any Recaro seats up to 3 years old? How old is that kid in the pic? He looks almost old enough to drive.

 

LOL i think its just the alcantra laying different directions with the light hitting it, but ya it looks moldy,.

Porsche makes a nice child seat also that can be purchased through the dealers, I believe recaro makes it as well but i may be wrong.

 

damn, i think i'm too big for that
