Difference between extended and full leather

AUH · 06-16-2013, 11:57 AM

Does anyone know what the difference between the extended and full leather in Sakhir Orange? Any pics would be appreciated. I can see from the Configurator that with the full leather the dashboard and centre armrest are in orange. I'm interested in know if those parts that are black in the extended leather option are also leather (i.e. is the dashboard and centre armrest black leather?)

Thanks

I do not think they are leather in the extended option. Only in Full.

The black parts in extended leather area made from a lower grade leatherette type material (either that or Dakota leather) but it has a synthetic grainy finish like Dakota leather.

It also lacks the two-tone finish on the center console that the full leather has.

With full leather the black parts are Nappa leather. Much nicer IMO.

I agree. Full Marino is the way to go, makes a huge difference.

Means it covers the doors dash and console in matching Merino. The extended does not have it on the upper parts of the door or dash. Huge difference. PM me and I will send you pics of my full merino leather in Sakhir.

Peace

Thanks for all the responses. I was just wondering if the black parts break the orange color well so it is not too bright. Any pics would be appreciated. noushy I sent you the PM
