not a fan of leather myself and would never buy a car with it. velour ftw :laugh:

leather is too hot and sticky in summer and cold in winter :(

both my cars had leather models and i choose the non leather for those reasons above :)

leather is for people who like to say they got leather and thats about it haha :happy:

A major factor in buying my stag was I wanted one with leather. I did get one, and they are comfy. Not extremely comfy, but not uncomfortable. The truth is - leather looks much better than the other stuff stags come in, and that's the bottom reason why I and possibly you want it. Furthermore its easier to clean. With the comments said above there's positives and negatives to both.

Leather impresses :happy:

if you dont have leather, its a useless car

I cant stand a Luxury sports car (yes a stagea is one) without leather.

actually i cant stand cloth

the one thing i cant stand is static electricity.

i will put leather in any car just to not have it

So I assume your sileighty has leather then ? Or is it useless too ?

Leather is great for when the kids spill stuff, easy to keep clean and I prefer it over cloth for the main reason because if it is looked after properly then after 20yrs time it'll look sooooo much better then a cloth one, even if the cloth has covers over it.

Definately leather. Looks and feels more luxurious. Easy to clean if you have dogs, kids or dirty mates. Adds a feel of quality so you dont think you are driving a magna!

I dont have leather and I dont think I'm driving a magna :P

jokes aside, I do agree that leather models look better, and more luxurious. They do give the impression of higher quality.

Just an idea, has anyone tried the leatherette seat covers? (there was a groub buy on here last year sometime)

Might be an option for those of us with the "plain" trim? (they looked good in the photos i saw). Not as good as the real thing though I'd imagine.

      I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.

      We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.

      Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)

      New Skyline will be RWD and manual

      Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
