howdy...

i have the blue Alcantara seats... i love them... dealer told me (maybe a sales pitch, although i wasn't looking at this car when he gave it to me) the Alcantara is more durable then suede and easier to clean. granted, anything spilled on them is going to be a b*tch to clean, ah well, the price of kewlness. he also said that it was like a $3k option on mercedes. i dunno bout that, never checked. with the dogs, i probably should have gotten the all leather seats.but, i went for the sedate blue outside, soooo.. i have the kewl inside. i bought 2 towels to cover the backseats when the dogs are with me.
