Default Correct it's an 2002 S8

Kinda odd that the pre-facelift(97-99) seats would be used as "Luxury Seats" in an 2002 S8.
I wonder why did they not use the facelift seats as "Luxury Seats" instead?
Did Audi have "left overs" or are the 97-99 seats better?

Default having used full-leather Audi seats in the past, I love..

..both the lateral support and the non-slip surface of the Alcantara Recaro Sports. I used to slide forward on leather seats under heavy braking--no more!
