    has anyone seen full alcantara seats (without the two-layer fabric middle part) for the Scuderia ? - I'd love to see some pictures...

    I was going to order that and decided against it at the last minute. Dealer showed me some photos but I do not have them. If you go this route you also need alcantara head liner

    were the seat still the same seats as the 2-fabric (shape/style) ? - what made you change your mind about the altantara option ?

    - yes, the headliner would also have to be alcantara then

    I ask because I ordered full Alcantara seats with headliner (all red), and I've still got a week before the order gets frozen.

    I would be concerned about alcantara on the seat if it is going to be driven often. Alcantara tends to pill and lose its texture in high wear areas like the seat bottom. The 2 layer fabric is much more durable which is why it is used on the Scuderia.

    If that's the only worry then no big deal. It would not be difficult to re-upholster the bottom center cushion if this happened. I'm not very heavy or big either.
