Default Reupholstry

I found this 1999 Camaro for sale but the driver seat cushion and leather is torn up, and the stitching has come undone in the center backing of the back seat. How much would this repair cost, and is there some way that the new leather would match with the original leather so I don't have to reupholster all the seats? Also how much could I take off from the asking price for this. There are also some other interior problems, some exterior and mechanical.

If you do just the one seat the material will not match and the repair is not cheap. Used leather seats ( front & rear)are available on E-bay all the time for About $500. Tell him to drop the price $1000 or have the seller fix the seats to your satifaction. My opinion would be to look for a better car with less problems

Thank you for responding balckz87. I agree with you completly on having the seller drop the price by at least $1000. The problem is that I don't think she will, seeing as how she is a woman and doesn't know that much about anything, especially cars.

Then walk away, like I said there are better cars on the market. And some are mint.
