Some of those looked pretty sporty. The Black with red inserts were interesting. But I'm happy with my OEM leather! Look, I just saved myself over $600!! I need to find more chrome!!

I thought about getting leather in mine, but realized the only reason I wanted leather was for the heat, and you can get heated cloth seats now.

I opted not to get the leather because it gets really hot during the day and it doesn't go below 85degrees here in Guam.

I like the feel and appearance of real leather. In time the surface develops character with wrinkles and some color variations. Some of the newer cars have perforated leather with A/C blowing thru them!

It does looks good and feels good, but it gets really hot too! I have leather in my Acura andit's starting to have some wrinkleswhich bothers me.

With A/C and a cabin temperature of 70 degrees or lower, how can your butt sweat? Wrinkles in leatherare apart of the character of leather and why its sought after, cherished and why people pay extra $$ for it.
