Middle-Top Row

For someone who doesn't like their leather and feels limited by the vinyl colors, this is good news...unless its a mistake...

Don't overestimate us; we're not as smart as we look...

I very much dislike alcantara, or really - fake suede.
I also much prefer leatherette to cloth in a car costing this much.

I'd even take leatherette over alcantara/leather.
Hopefully the sport/Msport seats are all leather and not fake suede, which looks awful after even a short time of use.
IMO.
