Has anyone seen leatherette? Is the leather option really worth $1450? I am debating whether I should get leather seats or get navigation with HUD for $2500. I really like the idea of a bigger screen that shows the torque/hp output. HUD would be a bonus.

Yup, you can see I am struggling with the budget here..
I think you'll find that leatherette owners are on the whole very happy with it. It looks and feels decent and holds up EXTREMELY well. My 06 e90's leatherette basically looks like the day I got it.

And it's super easy to clean and maintain. Consider it seriously if you're trying to keep the budget down.
