RE: S4 to S6 changes

[Peter Henriksen <peterhe@microsoft.com>]

I like leather for a couple of reasons: 1) Static electricity and 2) an
11-month old. I dislike it because 1) it's slippery and 2) it gets too
d*** hot in the summer.

If I get different front seats, I want them to look like the stock item
in terms of upholstery, so going with OE sports seats is a much cheaper
way out for me. How much are a decent set of Recaros anyway?

Thanks for the input.
