Default Sports Seat Leather...

Is the leather used in the sports seats better quality than the standard leather seats?

Default There seems to be a small difference...

between the Silver Silk Nappa leather in my wife's S4 and the Melange leather sport seats in my A6 2.7T. Her interior smells nicer too :-) not sure if it's her or the leather, but her car smells like Connelly (sp) hide while mine smells nice, but not AS nice. Also, the Silk Nappa leather feels a tad softer, although it's not significantly so.

Simple explanation: The silver cow ate better grass, got a massage once in a while ;-)

Default Totally different between sport and standard.

The cows used for the sport seats are required to work out several hours a day. The cows used for the standard seats just mill about eating grass.
