It does look super nice but I got to test drive a car with cognac heritage interior. Hard pass. The car was just turned on and after ten minutes the thick pepita fabric just wouldn't cool down and gets very warm. Talk about serious swamp a$$. But again. It looks like a million bucks.

IDK, but I'm gonna say no. The fabric felt thick and non breathable. I don’t remember non ventilated leather seats being as warm as these. But hey, it may not feel like that for everyone. Just my two cents.

You have an opinion about the heritage interior that I can imagine as valid. The only thing I’d counter with is if I really want to be comfortable, I’ll drive my F-250. I think there are always trade offs in vehicles. If anyone says carbon seats are more comfortable or easier to get in and out of, they weigh less than 165, or are lying. Anyway, I as someone who picks up their heritage interior TTS this week, appreciate your opinion and think you may be right. I’ll definitely give honest opinion after having it for a few months.

The Black Heritage interior looks fantastic. I went back and forth on it, before pulling the trigger on the cognac. I do think over time the black will wear better, but I'm a sucker for light interiors.

Definitely can't go wrong with either. Both show stoppers IMO. I'm glad I was able to optioned it out on my new build. I don't think we'll see the Heritage interior on the MY25's as it seems to go with the 60th anniversary theme, but I may be wrong.

NIce !!! You got the Extended Heritage Design Leather Package. I was already breaking my bank with the Heritage Interior and had to tap out on that one. Congrats, any pics of the whole car you can share. My build won't be delivered until January, so I keep looking at these pics to keep me going.
