Alcantara looks sweet.....let us know how it holds up. While I love it, a buddy mentioned yesterday that perhaps not great in a DD car. Said something to effect that it has a tendency to "pill" with heavy use (like on a sweater). That would be my main concern. Anyone on here ever have an alcantara wheel or seats that can comment?

I had the alcantara sport seats and steering wheel in my 997. The alcantara still looked great after 12K miles when I sold it.
