I did the leather because I don't like cows. They have no manners and deserve to be either in my mouth in the form of a cheeseburger or under my ass in the form of comfort.

I have sat in both and the leather is much nicer. I did not like the cloth in the 1LT I sat in so leather it is for me!

Leather all the way, easy to clean in the sense of no need to vacuum. Just keep it clean and moisturized. I do like the grip of cloth a bit better but not enough over the comfort and great look of leather.

No ones going to say leather looks bad because it doesnt, but my self just dont like it overall. But dont matter what is said leather is not as easy to keep up as one may thing. It still will stain, scratch, wear, etc. the 2000 TA i have has leather, and its been taken care of, but still has wear spots and small cracking. I would think at 20 years old it would have to be replaced. But I have seen cloth thats 20 years old and looks new still. Cloth unless it has something major spilled on can always be steam cleaned.

i'm NOT a leather guy... cloth all the way. I got the 2SS for all of the other goodies, plus my wife desired the leather.
now that i've ridden in it i LOVE the leather. it sits, feels, and looks PERFECT.
( i like all the other goodies too)

The leather is nice but I worry about the side bolsters wearing like the 4th gens. and almost every other low sports car. They are already showing some wear. I would have went with cloth if it didn't cost me almost the same price when you add in the C&C package and BA sound. Plus the lady made a big fuss about having heated seats. 4 pack gauges are awesome too.

Getting leather because it's gotta be that way with an American muscle car! Also I got cloth on my Saab and it's really worn and not that nice after ten years. Plus I just can't get it clean anymore.

Perhaps I sound a lil naive but it appears to me that the grade of fabric used for the cloth interior appears to be highly durable and not of the same integrity and quality of your old school traditional cloth interiors that most of us probably have more experience with. One of my best friends has an '06 F series crew cab XLT with cloth and after 70k+ miles no stains or odors and just a wrinkle on his side in the seat cushion. Not bad I say.
