I was at the junkyard today and i saw a white turbo mirage, and inside were these small black seats that had turbo written all over them in red they were some of the sickest seats i seen they were pretty tore up though. Does anybody know what year or trim they came in i don't know to much about old turbo mirages. Pics of mint ones would be appreciated.

This must have been a 2nd-Gen Mirage (C10)? I've seen those cars with seats like that before; in fact, the entire interior had "turbo" written EVERYWHERE.

Hi !

Those seats were in the 1985 Mirage Turbo. Possibly '86 as well.

its interesting to see how they did it. it wasn't embroidered but it was as if the red turbo lettering was over the top of the black cloth. let me see if i can dig up a picture.


Edit: nope cant find a pic but it was regular black fabric.

those are exactly like the cordia ones i saw, but they were in like a gray and black.

i wish i had grabbed them when i saw them, but it was years ago in a chicago junkyard. that car is long gone im sure.
