If you want leather, just ask your dealer. Classic Soft Trim does the work, and the leather makes the car 10x nicer!
Do you mean we can go to the dealer and order leather recaros as an option in the X GSR? That would be a good surprise!

The best part about the interior are probably the sits, and even then they are crappy =(

Haha, the sits in the back are recaros. Oh, this is not my car btw, just spreading the words that they are INDEED cheaply made, not seem.

Unless I am mistaken, Recaro manufactured these seats, not Mitsubishi.

I love that the largest complaint that I've been seeing is that the seats are cheap, or that there missing a plastic cover peice.

Sorry guys, the seats are plenty comfortable and they hold you while you rocket around in a car that kicks ***.

That is still no a good answer when you phave paid over 30k for a car that has cheap parts. I see the masses coming to buy this car since mitsu's target is more older mature people. Comfortable or not I'm not expecting the most expensive seat but give me a seat that will last
