No you don't need the RS package for the seat embroidery Heather R's Red 1SS is sans RS and has the SS on the cloth seats

I like the leather, gauges, heat, and such, but don't need a lot of the other electronics except the upgraded BA. I don't really have need for the rest. It'd be nice if it that were a smaller package one could add onto any other but I guess I'll be stuck with it. I'm not too happy about that, but what are you going to do?

I disagree. For me, it's the other way around. Some Scotchguard and the cloth is maint free, plus who's going to get in their Camaro covered in mud or spill $hit all over it. The cloth in our Honda looks fantastic after 8 years and 85K miles.

The one negative thing I will say about cloth is the little fibers that collect between cleanings on the dashboard, etc.

You know, I'm not trying to start an argument, but I've heard what the OP said about leather lasting longer too. Of course, that was for REAL leather on a living room sofa. Is this leather going to be real, or like the "leather" we've had in the past? If it were real, I'd feel a lot better about durability, but that's assuming it actually has better wear charactaristics.

That's also assuming you condition the leather and the vinyl occasionally. No regular conditioning required with cloth.

So true. That sofa isn't stuck out in the 110+* California sun, LOL!

Leather will get you more chicks (or guys, I'm not judging here)!

LEATHER FTW!!!

ArcAngel · 02-03-2009, 05:29 PM

ssooch thats a total BS line bro!!LOL!!! I know many women who hate leather, to hot in the summer for the beach and there legs and too cold in the winter while the seat warms up

Leather = Horrible... unless you live somewhere that the weather is nice.

With Winters being really cold and summer being really hot.. leather is a nightmare for Kansas.. and not to mention the stupid bright sun beating on it will dry and crack it out so fast...

For me.. Its cloth.. dealing with leather is a pain and i don't like how when you move sounds like someone ripped some @ss.... soo yeah Cloth.

PS, leather vs cloth had no pull what-so-ever in me going 1ss.. its the weight and price.

Clean leather with a 260lb man sliding over it.. makes noise.. Can't deny the truth.
