MR.CLIFFORD · 07-06-2003, 08:03 AM

I wouldn't pay anything for leather even if it were in perfect condition

how much would I pay to be hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and to slide around every time I take a corner...

Leather is good until you have it. I want to get rid of mine so bad. I would save and get some nice Corbra, Spraco, or Recarro seats.

Well my black on black 93 Si had cloth seats and it's just as hot in the summer as my leather seats in my new one. And you don't slide around in Prelude seats regardless.

I have black cloth too but have been on leather and they're not the same, leather absorbs temperature better - I've never burned myself on my black cloth

And yes, I slid too

...and heres some more just for you

Look, it depends on what you want - looks or functionality. I'm not judging either. There's not a huge difference between them but there's some. A lot of people who have leather wish they didn't when it's really hot, or really cold out. On the other hand, lots of people want leather for the feel and the look. I don't care what you want! It's one of those "IMO"

I've had both, cloth and leather, and personally I love my leather seats. Black on black, looks awesome. I've never slid around on my seats, I'm not sure what you're all talking about, that's what the side supports are there for. Maybe you guys are sitting weird or something...

khilgers · 07-07-2003, 09:23 AM

mmmmmmmm......leather. Yeah they're hot as hell in the summer and cold in the winter, but I'd still take leather over cloth. Unless I had a set or recaros

My car came with leatherm, but I think the dealer sent it out and it was done for around $1200

blacklude4k · 07-07-2003, 09:32 AM

ya leather is always nice and i have never slid around in my seats? maybe your just really skinny

brendon2k · 07-08-2003, 12:55 AM

leather is only better for cleaning up spills. i dont have little kids in my car so i would not want leather.

SlowSi · 07-08-2003, 10:00 PM

I slide everywhere in my dad's es300...haha, his car isn't made for what Preludes can do. I love 4th gens seats.
