Your observation, OP, regarding the vinyl seats has been, IMO, true since the E36. I had one with taupe vinyl seats and never longed for leather. Indeed, the sole reason I'd pay for leather seats in a BMW is to get the seat color I want. The leatherette really is outstanding, and it's a good deal more durable and easier to care for.
