Do you think the alcantara interior raises the resell value of the car?

Yes, but only slightly. Seems to be desirable.

Default To add to that. I think the sports package will make one more desirable. Lots of folks swap mirrors

and interior trim.

Default Blue alcantara <----Ugly as F-ck IMHO

passed on a nogaro S when i first bought mine because i thought the interior was horrible

I dont know how much value the sport package adds to the value but im sure it makes it more desirable since the stock woodgrain trim in these cars are ugly as hell

Default yup... not a fan of that alcantra, and I don't care about the mirrors (I don't think they look as

stunning on silver as they do on other colors), but this wood has got to go

Definitely. It was a great option.

I don't like the blue alcantara either, I like the cream alcantara...
