I've taken my ES down for the panel upgrade which means it is time to get the seats redone. My local airplane interior guy is pushing for my seats to be redone in vinyl, which the new vinyl is better than the old versions. However, some new cars come with Leatherette, and it feels very soft and doesn't get hard when cold. I'm leaning towards that. I really love the smell of leather, but I'm not up for the required maintenance to keep the seats amazing year after year.
What did ya'll do when choosing seat material?
Seats - Vinyl, Leather, or Leatherette?
