I think most people have gone for leather. But we'll see I guess

We were tempted by leather, but in the end went for Phantom cloth. Figured for $2k we could get the 18" wheels and side airbags.

Our current car has leather and l could take it or leave it. A bit slippy when cornering hard, cold in winter, hot in summer. Get sick of rubbing leather conditioner in it too, but it does add a touch or class.

If I can find a way of not damaging the leather with the baby capsule, I'll probably go for that as the wife doesn't like the patterns on the cloth seats. Failing that, it will probably be plexis gray.

I haven't voted yet while I try and figure out what it is that we'll get!

Sounds familiar DZ.

Not entirely sure about the leather (how hot will it get?/ongoing maintenance). My wife ain't wrapped in the cloth patterns but the Plexis Grey is not as overt as some of the other colours so that may get the nod.

At this stage, still undecided. Anyone cornered in a BA with leather that can comment?

I'm getting a black XR6, so I'm not about to put black leather and burn my skin off! I've had leather seats before (the current Explorer has leather) and I'm not a mad fan. I like the Plexis Grey enough to go with that and spend the money elsewhere (did I mention I'm getting Sat Nav? <grin>).

Well, while I'm not a buyer (Yet! oh the temptation) I must say that in the Phantom XR6T that I was lucky enough to score a ride in the Plexis pattern was a bit loud for my tastes. This seems to be becoming a common theme here. Has the BA team got something wrong?

Also not a great fan of leather - is there any other option?

Actually, it's a funny thing about Australian "Sports Sedans". They've always got overtly loud (I believe women call it tacky) seat patterns. I'm not sure why that is, given that the sort of people that are buying the XR6T (my opinion anyway) are likely to want something with a bit more class rather than something overly loud.

Didnt worry with leather. Have had leather before and you do sweat a lot in summer and slide around when cornering.

I have leather in my car. I think its great. The only thing i dont like is the fact that the coloured XR logo can only be in Red, Red and.... Red. They should make the logo the same colour as the car. Also wouldn't mind the logo being imprinted into the back seats as well..

Not true, CJF. I'm getting Plexis Grey: The XR6 logo is in Grey on darker trim. Looks great. You can get the XR6 logo in Red, Blue, Purple and Grey.
