Thinking to get another Evo X
 
I'm looking around :) I want pretty much stock.... I see some 2015s with 15k miles on, but Do i really want 2015 with crappy seats, or just get 2014. with 40k miles..

More miles better seats - they are really THAT bad. 10k to swap them after the fact if you want leather...

I said if you want leather - as in brand new - good luck finding used leather out there. I was specific, and accurate, and there are people that have paid that to accomplish that very thing.

I said brand new, and that's all I said. At the time I last checked like a year or so ago, the market was non existent for leather ones without airbags having deployed and outside of that new was one of the only options - if you wanted leather.

Super good you found some options now a long time later, and something I didn't actively research because last I saw, new was almost the only way to go.

Can you all stop riding my nuts about this already jesus I was very specific - NEW. Go nuts finding used it doesn't make my point or post any less valid because I was talking about NEW.

RazorLab Jan 9, 2019 06:17 PM

Oh hush, you literally stated “good luck finding used leather out there” in your post and the above was in reply to that.

Based on my experience that was the case all I would ever see after a long period of searching was blown out used seats when it came to leather, if you would find any in the first place. Does it mean because a few are available right now that there is some vast ****ing supply? I don't think so, it's lucky there are a few out there big ****ing deal?
