Have you had experience with these people? If so, what was your service like? Are they legit?

Since the blue is back, I think there is hope for the leather in the 1ss. Let's keep the thread going to see if we can get it changed.

No. I just searched for some known leather upholster company and this is what it came up. We should research more and maybe pitch "X" company to do a group buy. Some of the combos in their site are trully killer and can mix and match all kind of colors, leather, perforated leather, suede etc to come with a very unique custom seats. One can almost recreate the seats that are on the SEMA cars.

Click on the "Virtual Seat Designer" to see some cool combos. The one selected is for the Camaro up to 02 but, am sure they can come up with the new ones for the upcoming Camaro.

Ok quick question...are we wanting to figure out if we can get someone to apply leather to the STOCK seats we will be getting or are we talking about getting new seats, and adding leather to those. Because I know a great company that has amazing seats and do custom designs and they include new tracks for their seats...

Exactly what I was thinking. If they paid attention to adding something as simple as a color to all the models, then I don't see why there is any reason for them not to have an option for leather in the 1SS....please vote and keep this going everyone. I appreciate it!

I think the $4k difference between the 1SS and 2SS is crazy.

all you get is heated leather, heated mirrors, gauges, 245W stereo, Bluetooth/USB, leather steering wheel with controls.

NOT 4k worth of stuff, IMO.

And an improved suspension. Don't forget that. That might make it worth an extra 4k.

The suspension in the 1SS is exactly the same as the 2SS, its the V6 that gets the lower end suspension.

The leather thing is driving me nuts. I reeealllllyyyy want leather and I can't believe it's not an option. The only stuff I want out of the 2ss is leather and maybe the upgraded the stereo. I'm not a fan of the lighting and especially not a fan of the $4k difference when i don't care for $3k of the stuff.

When not enough people buy the Camaro expect packaging prices to drop!

I live in the south and don't need heated seats or mirros but maybe two times a year. I would love to be able to order a 1SS with Leather Seats as an option. I don't need all the bells and whistles.
