992 Leather or no leather

[Oldknees]

Configurator - Leather / partial leather / sportex / none. What's your preference?

If it’s my money, 14 way, if it’s your money we’re spending leather interior or club 😂

Not sure what the difference is between leather and club. So being uninformed on the matter I went for the cheaper of the two.
 

Options pricing here is a joke. If they ever allow parallel imports the price of a new P-car will drop by a third.

Yep - got to go easy on those options. Leather is standard on 992 in UK. Very few 992's in the USA have base trim - yet on OZ, almost all the 992's have no leather optioned.

Sat in a 992 in the dealer last weekend, the 'standard' leather feels 'not great' to me -  even compared to the leather in my Macan it seems like a step down.  Playing on the configurator earlier this week (dreaming of a new Targa GTS) I notice the options mention 'smooth leather' so I'm keen to see this myself.

Leather is durable, easy to clean and repair - can’t say the same of Alcantara/Sport-Tex

I quite like the retro look of the new Sportex seats - but we pay a lot for that option in OZ.
