I test drove an F30 with the saddle brown leather and it was really really cheap leather. It looked really bad... The color wasn't the best but even the texture and the feel of the leather just wasn't there. It felt very thin also. To charge $1,500 for that leather is a total rip-off. For $500 I can see it remaining on the table, maybe, but not for what BMW charges. I went for the leatherette, no regrets. It's just too bad there is no option for a different color stitching on the leatherette.

leatherette holds up really really well.
