leather makes the evo so much more classy.. plus it shuts up all those guys who own STi's that say "the STi interior is so much better/nicer".. give me a break. nice if you're a sumo wrestler.. haha maybe i'm just saying that becuase my damn brother owns one!

I dunno, I will say that the STI's gauges are sexy. 10x better than the Evo's. I was interested in the leather Recaro's as well, dealer told me they would sell them seperate if I wanted. You may want to check out that route, I never got a price quote though.

Unless you're hauling your sumo buddies, our backseats have SOOOO much more room

The leather Recardo Seats came with my EVO 8. It was an option added to the MSRP. But I love them, feel good

The leather is great.. however you will find yourself sliding around more opposed to the cloth versions... at least.. until you hit a side bolster. The new Evo IX seats look nice and it seems they tried to fix this problem by putting alcantera (suede-like material) on the seats to help grip.

I have leather seats and of course you'll slide around if youre at the track; regardless of which material is on your seat unless youre in a harness; in which case it doesnt really make a difference. For street use the leather seats work fine.
