Leather, and if you take care of it which is easy to do it should not crack or fade.

Leather > cloth in looks, value, and upkeep

This is a problem that someone posted within another forum about what happened to their leather seats when they got hot -- "



So I am sitting at a red light the other day and I look over at my passenger side seat. On the upper part of my seat about 6 inch's down from the head rest the leather is "bubbling" almost looks like it has zits....never seen anything like it...

I bet I am going to have to really push the dealer to get anything done... [align=right][/align]

I noticed that post, and all the request for pictures that followed [8D]

I'm hoping that that is a random type of thing that that guy was "lucky" enough to have happen to only him.

"crosses fingers"

Thanks for the post though

So while youre busy spilling drinks on the freeway you have birds flying around inside your car too?

Seriously, leather requires more care, but if maintained adds a better resell value to the car, and you have more color chioces available with the leather. It does have the drawback of being hot/cold as the weather changes.

Cloth can be made "spillproof" and is easier to maintain, but is not as attractive, and would not be a selling point when you go to trade in the car.

I have the cloth seats in my car and am very happy with it, but then again I tend to keep my cars a long time (10+ years on average).
