Default 325iT Wagon

I'm considering a Wagon purchase...

3 things:

1) Leather vs. Leatherette? Pros/Cons of each?

2) Manual vs. Steptronic? Please advise...

Post to this thread...

Thanks
JMcB

Because they can charge more for leather.

So offer it at the same price as leatherette. I'd be cool with that. Heck
I'd probably even pay a premium for it.

I'm with you Russ, I way prefer cloth over hide, and would be willing to
pay a premium for an attractive cloth. It's all about that hot in summer,
cold in winter thing.

I wonder if cloth is an option with the "individual" program?
