Default Has anyone seen an SQ5 with Alcantara seats? All I've seen have Nappa

I wanted to see an Alcantara seat in person, but each SQ5 I've seen all have Nappa.

Also at the dealership I visited in Ohio, the salesman called it "suede". I wondered if *he* didn't know what Alcantara was, or didn't think *I* knew what Alcantara was. I had already said the word Alcantara, so I fear the former. Or maybe he was just so conditioned to calling it suede for the uninformed. Or maybe he's just new...

They are in the Estoril Blue SQ5 I picked up on Saturday. I had only driven/seen the Fine Nappa upgrade. Cosmetically they are nice (with the accent sticking), but I think the Alcantara are really comfortable. I was worried about heat in FL, but that hasn't been an issue either.

spijun's post had pictures of the black and grey Alcantara. Or did you specifically mean owner shots rather than Audi's?
