you don't have leather sport seats - no such thing. Andy is correct, as usual.

Default clarification: Sports Package (suspension) vs Sports Seats

Yes you can get heated seats with the sports suspension package
Sports seats are a separate option and only avaiable in cloth

Default is it possible to confuse this guy even more? heated seats are part of the Cold Weather Package not

the Sports Package. The Sports Package is suspension, wheels, steering wheel.

geez...guys...if you don't know what you're talking about - don't post and claim you do.

Default Uh, yes I do have them. I have the leather, cold weather, and sport seat options...

Invoice:
Leather $1162
Cold Weather $550
Sport Seats $440

I'd love to know how there is no such thing as heated leather sport seats.

Default The difference is substantial, but only if you have ever seen both..

The leather is very soft, and smells oh-so good. The leatherette is tougher, and has none of the leathery good smell.

Default Leather is softer and a pain to maintain. I have the leatherette on my 1.8 and love it. It's not

as soft, but it's much easier to maintain. There's no need to buy leather cleaners and conditioners for it. I use Lexol's Vinylex and looks great. I wish the Sports Seats came in leather or the leatherette, but oh well. My '95 90 had leather seats and I was not impressed with its durability. I was always putting conditioners on it, which made them greasy for a day and they still cracked.

What misinformation? If I'm wrong, I'll apologize.
