E46 interior options

[Kobushi ste]

Seen a few coupes recently with either a leather option or an alcantara option I'm presuming the alcantara was the dearer of the 2 on the options list

No, Alcantara was standard fit on the Sport models. Leather was a cost option.

It's only half Alcantara - the bolsters are Alancata, the seat base and doorcards are some nasty manmade fibrey stuff.

Cheers fox,is there anything you don't know about a coupe lol,does look nice in the pictures not seen in the flesh but think black leather sports seats are the way forward

Std leather was rubbish too in my experience.
If you can try and find one with the Nappa option.
Much nicer leather and wears better too.

Or blackberry leather



After 130,000 miles, the bolsters are still in great condition and I don't treat them often (Auto Glym when I do (once a year))
