Congratulations. The car looks great. Just be careful, there are guys on this board that seem to lose their minds about contrasting stitching.

I agree with you completely. But it seems we are in the minority.

Very Nice.
I love the classic clouds on the hood photo. Beautiful cars these are.
Between you and me? The interior looks a little heavy on the shiny sheen. Hopefully it's not Armorall
which is loaded with damaging silicone.

I used Meguiars leather cleaner. No good?

Car looks great! Congratulations!!!
As for the leather, you might want to give Lexol a shot. Excellent product!

Dunno, but that's a relief to hear. Meg. has a good rep.
I was thinking the dealership slapped on some stuff (crappy Armorall) just to make the car look better in the short run.
Wheeeew.

Great looking car, and I like the extensive leather, including the center console. Can't beat a cab! Enjoy.

What am I missing? Doesn't look like deviating stiching on the photos - could be the lighting or...?
Very nice car though.
