Not a fan of Alcantara. I mean, I LOVE the feel and how it makes the car feel more "refined" but I'm too practical of a person to commit to it. While I had it on my car, I constantly had to think if my hands were going to dirty up the fabric, etc. Just a headache. And I'm not one of those guys who would use gloves to drive a DD.Originally Posted by Avetiso

I keep some hand wipes in the car because of that reason. However as practical as leather is, the feel is not the same.

Ya, it's definitely a give and take.

While Alcantara is not as durable as leather, they are not nearly as sensitive as is often said. I don't take any particular care of my wheel and it's still like-new after 2 months. I'm confident it'll last 2-3 years until it starts degrading.

I thought this was part of cold weather package (ZCP)?

As far as I know, this is standard option on coupes and an option on sedans. Strangely, I almost bought a sedan with heated seats but no folding seats.

Coupe - split folding seats standard
Vert - ski pass
Sedan - split folding seats are standard with ZCP, but was available as a standalone option

Thanks for clearing it up, JP.
I really wanted folding seats in my zhp as without this option the car is mostly suited for passenger transportation. While I am certainly not trying to move in the zhp, I do like an option to transport something sizable. This a part of a reason I didn't buy a minty TiAg Sedan with 56k miles last summer. Yeah I had second thoughts

You don't plan on it but it's always nice to have the option
