[QUOTE="525iBoy, post: 181126, member: 1183"] definitely sounds like a sales pitch!! basically ALL leather is imported and except for the 2000K job, from Italy or Germany, and there are MANY types of grades.. even for top grain. MRZ leather is ok/so-so. nothing special. despite the claims to the contrary. as for MRZ's claim to the "best" calf leather.. that is really Horses**t!, the "best" leather is connolly.. rolls royce grade period!! I have it and it will cost mininum of 7K for a typcial 4 door sedan. it's typcially 3mm think and very soft and completely smooth. if you get the connolly for 5K then its NOT Rolls Royce grade, but the type they use of Jags/Daimlers. still very good but don't let someone BS you. MRZ's grade at 3K it typcial furniture grade... decent but it will crack after 3-4 years and definitely does not wear as well as connolly or nappa. Frankly, connolly is the one to get if one can cough up 5-7K, but nappa is also very good and long lasting. Connolly WILL last for a lifetime if oiled regularly and not exp;osed to sun and improves with age if treated properly. This is not marketing but fact based. the connolly on my other car is at least 10yrs and still looks new and I mean showroon new. with only a few creases (not cracks) on the drivers side. meanwhile the nappa OEM leather on my former mercedes is going strong after 18 years with a few creases and people havig a hard time believeing its 18 year olds. !! so there you have it guys!! :). 3K, get the furniture grade but pay a few hundred more and get the nappa type whch is longer lasting. if you can bite the bullet then the 5-7k+ connolly will be the one to have. Just don't get the 2k grade as it's like sitting on cardboard.. maybe worse!! ? [/QUOTE]
