Hi Brian,

The black dash and door trim on my '89 Mondial t are vinyl. They clean up really well, and I haven't seen any shrinkage or tearing yet.

92 Mondial T = Vinyl

but if you consider how many vinylputions (cousins of lilyputions) it takes to make a roll of vinyl you could consider it simply faux leather

Was told Vinyl. I treat it like leather looks like leather smells like leather feels like leather thank God it doesn't shrink like leather.

I've been very happy with the Mondial t interior. Cleans up well and doesn't seem to have those shrinkage problems like some other F-cars.

I suspect mine are vinyl too....it isn't absorbing the leather cream the way my tan leather does...

Brian, I can attest both door and dash are leather. I know because I had to restretch them when the glue dried up and had to be restored.

I was told by a Ferrari dealer that they were vinyl, thus not prone to the shrinkage problems of similar vintage cars with leather (e.g. Testarossas).

Curious if the black dash and the black door trim is leather or vinyl? Looks like leather, feels like vinyl...
