Is one racing seat silly????
I'd really like to get a Sparco Torino 2 racing seat, but I don't think that I could get both because I play hockey and rest my hockey stick between the passenger's seat and the door panel, so...it looks as if I would be only buyng one.
Is that silly????
Will I look ricey????
And if so, where in the heck can I put my hockey stick...I'm 6'3" and use the full 60" shaft, no puny sticks here!!!!
Thanks

Yep it will look silly... 
...you know you can count on me for an honest opinion 
Should look fine since there is a valid reason for both (your 60" shaft
& racing habit)

If you care about image I would get two. Otherwise it looks silly, and somewhat ricey...kinda like poor Honda owners who don't have enough money to buy both seats :-( :-P
If you don't care about your image, screw it!!!!! You only NEED one and your passengers will be more comfortable in the stock seats. Don't forget the racing harnesses

I think it is not silly but offensive. But since you play hockey you could probably beat the living s%it out of me so I will think whatever you think

Honestly if you think about it, getting a second racing seat for passenger is "ricey" if you go with the whole "It serves no function" philosophy. But I digress, I think one seat will look odd, because it throws off the balance of the car. You can curb it by keeping the seat black if you have black interior for example. Whatever you decide to do, I have Torino 2's in my car and they are a very comfortable seat. I find it more comfortable then the stock ones and so does my girlfriend. It's the only thing about the car she ever comments on (grumble grumble)

I bought just one racing seat (Corbeau) but it's black so shouldn't look too bad. I'm only doing it for orthopedic reasons so I don't need the extra expense and I want the comfort of the stock passenger seat still to be there.

Low J - At 6'2", 250, I have problems with the stock seat as well. I can't find your "Legend" seats anywhere on the Corbeau site or elsewhere. Do you mean "Legacy" by chance?
