Light colors are really nice looking and cooler in the summer but as others have said keeping them clean and looking nice is a real struggle. If you wear blue jeans at all then you need to know that sooner or later that dye will transfer to the leather when you get in the car and you will have that blue tint to the seats that will probably never come out. Ask me how I know.
Sounds par for the course for those July allocations. Hoping you get better news on delivery date soon!
Agreed, you might have an inside track with a base SX. I upgraded last week to include P, but am risking pushing out my delivery date whenever I get into KFOS. Putting good vibes out into the universe for everyone
Do they Typically let you know when you get into KFOS?
I imagine so, and the good dealers definitely will. One tip is to check in with your dealer around the 13th-17th each month, since that’s when KFOS typically opens, and ask if your order made it
Is there anything out there that you could use to pre-treat or protective coat the lighter Nappa Leather to prevent things like jean dye transfer or stains in general??? I definitely agree that the gray interior looks much cleaner and classier than the black. I don't mind the black as much if it's in combination with the lighter headliner though. Wish the Butterscotch Nappa came with the lighter headliner! The dark one just makes the cabin feel smaller and more enclosed.
For a couple grand or less.
If you are worried about that black is probably the best color. I ordered dune brown because I really like the color and I basically drive cars until they fall apart so if it gets marked a little then I know that going in and its just not an issue with me any more.
Well, I guess it's time to change my wardrobeMy experience has been with light tan color but I have used a lot of leather care and protective products including dealer protection 'armor coat' or something like that but nothing I found lasts more than a month or two. With the dealer protection pkg I purchased they finally gave me a refund on a very expensive add on because it had a 5 year guarantee and the marking started a few months into my owning the car plus I wear jeans almost exclusively. They were unable to remove the markings or protect it from getting worse. They brought in a technician to work on it from the company and he failed to get it out. My uncle was a cobbler and leather repair specialist for over 50 years. He saw just about everything in his shoe, leather and saddle repair days. I showed him the seats and he said that the leather in cars is meant for comfort and durability but it is hard to keep from having that type of transfer and once it gets marked with a dye it is nearly impossible to get out without changing the color of the damaged area. His advice to me was just enjoy the car and once your sitting on the seat you will never know it is there!
Yeah, the dealer sent me the window sticker
