I already gave mine.

And look just to clarify about the Odyssey, these are the optional seats that can be had:


Says Recaro right on the seat, hence why the Odyssey was listed.

Like I said, prove that your list includes all cars that have Recaros but are not branded as such. I looked at your evidence and it's no stronger than me who spoke to a source at Recaro.
That list is not inclusive of seats they manufacture, but do not brand as their own, I see that they only list cars that come equipped with the seats that show the branding.

Also, go back to the Recaro website where you got your "evidence" from and notice they have pictures of cars NOT listed as having their seats playing in the gallery such as the MB E-class which also sports Recaro seats but are not branded.. I see a pattern here..

Possible, but not probable. That does not make much sense.
Well they didnt include the GLI on that list either.

Dear Sir or Madam:

Does Recaro make the seats for the Honda S2000?

There is some debate on the popular S2000 website www.s2ki.com.

The thread can be seen here https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...ic=348735&st=0.

I would like to thank you in advance for any information you can share with the online community.

Sincerely,
Tom Ray

Only problem with that is, what if they're not allowed to disclose that information, only deny it as may be an agreement with Honda? There is less liability in saying it verbally than it is in writing..

Finally some truth behind this stupid myth. Always seemed odd how the Honda seats that are "manufactured" by Recaro not have the Recaro logo on it, yet Audi, VW, Mitsu, etc all have Recaro stamped on it. Anyway, i'm sure people can still pretend and say that they're recaro seats
