I don't want glass on my face in an accident as to why I wanted the side airbags.
You're pulling things out of your **** if you're thinking you can get Alcantara seats, paintjob and side airbags for $2,000 (the price difference between the RS2 and a regular tC).
As for why I didn't buy a Spec, it's a waste of money. It basically removed what the tC is well known for. I maybe low on money, but I'm not broke.

Isn't this your quote from earlier in the thread?

I'm sure you can buy a Type-R Pep Boys special for $20 but it'll cost you real money to have someone actually rip out the factory fabric and custom fit it with Alcantara. I've looke around and the average going rate is $400 -$600 PER SEAT.
It's cheaper to manufature the seats from the factory than it is to go to a shop.

"plus labor installation" is uhh.. politically incorrent. i'd say anyway.
this whole thread has gone nowhere but into complete and utter nonsense.
