I'm sure there will be multiple opinions on this, to each his own! I personaly think they look worn out at day 1. When I was shopping for a used Pcar, my two must haves where regular leather on the seats and manual transmission.

IMHO i dont think it looks good in a 997. Looks like it belongs in the panamera or a Lexus. It's soft and supple though. Not sure about wear.

I'm sure the leather is comfortable and of high quality, but I don't want the sofa look in my 911. It's a totally subjective question, though.

Not at all for me, either. Doesn't look like a sports car seat.
