Hi everyone, I am going to place an order for a new E90. I would like to know your opinions about which one is better, leatherette or cloth? I cannot afford leather. I heard that leatherette gets hot and it is plastic so the feeling that you sit on plastic is not good. But does cloth look bad?  |

Cloth is not an option, except maybe as an expensive special order.

Leatherette may not be as bad as you think. I have had both. My current car is leatherette and I would definitely order it again. Yes, leather is softer but it is a maintenance issue and it wears. BMW seats are notorious for "scuffing" on the seat bolster. I used to treat my leather several times a year. I live in a warm climate and the heat has never really been an issue with the leatherette.

Cloth if it were an option in the US would be my choice.

I have cloth in my 320d, it is far easier to keep it clean than leather. And it won't wear like leather.
