there was a similar ad on Cars.com when I was looking for my S in April.

I watched it for a week, then they changed it because the seats & steering wheel were stolen...

Not a bad deal though, dropping the price $3k because the seats were missing.

$11k for a low mileage 03 that you could throw racing seats in, or pick up some replacements on Craigslist or ebay for like $500 or whatever the going (probably stolen) rate is...

You might even get the exact ones that came out of that car!

Some Civic has some nice tan leather seats. Freaking thieves.

Go down to the flea market and buy the exact seats back from the guy who stole them.
