Sensatec Seating Vs. Leather Upgrade & Color Combinations

Sensatec Seating Vs. Leather Upgrade & Color Combinations

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Right now my lease is due in 2 months on my BMW 128 with Oyster leather (with black floors mats and light ceiling and black trim on the doors) seats and Alpine White exterior. The seats do get dirty but I love the lighter interior.

Can those that chose the Sensatec Seating, let me know if they would do it again and if they have the Oyster or the black? Does the vinyl seats get extra hot in the summer time and extra cold in the winter time so you really need to use the heated seats often? Anyone with the lighter color Oyster with the light floors and ceiling regret getting this or are you happy having a lighter interior? Is it difficult to keep clean? Anyone have Oyster Leather that chose to go with the black and Oyster combination that I have now and why they chose this?

For those that chose the leather, which color combination did you go with and do you feel it was worth the extra money?

Sorry, I thought I was in the right section. Let me post it in the correct section. I don't know how it got here.

OK, I see that I thought this was the section for adding on to the build of a car. I can't seem to find where I should post this question?

General section would be fine so you get responses. In here you won't have as many as you would like...

And by the way, Oyster color is only available in Leather and not in Sensatec.

I had the same interior as you in my last car and i switched back to black vinyl (so much easier to keep clean than light colored leather)

no issues, and the vinyl is very durable
