Hey its me again, I was wondering if there is a big difference in quality between the milano leather and the fine nappa leather. The fine nappa is double the price and I wanted to know if in the long run it would be better to go with that. I am choosing black leather sport seats.

I would not pay double the price?! I am in the UK and the Q5 comes standard with Milano Leather; Nappa costs an additional £350=$570 which i felt is reasonable given the Nappa's soft touch and better looks. The Milano is nice too, but a bit coarse - if this is the right word.

Well here in Kuwait the milano black sport seats are for around £400 while the fine nappa is £800 which is why I went with Milano. But since I am paying this much for the car anyway I figured if its worth it i would pay more for fine nappa. When I saw the two leather samples at the dealer the only difference i noticed was the fine nappa was smoother but i wanted to know if thats it or is there more to it?

I don't know about durability, but i'm sure others who owned both could chip in with more information. The smoothness in a small sample may not be an issue when 1st seen/felt but when the whole interior is dressed in it the difference will be more noticeable.

i'm having a hard time finding pictures of black interiors with milano or fina nappa. actually i am finding pictures just not noticing any difference between them.

I didnt notice much difference when I sat in the A6 3.0T with milano and the A6 4.2L with the upgarde nappa leather.
