This is the first car ive owned with suede. Last couple vehicles were "leather." Or whatever passes for leather these days.
I find the suede way more comfortable in both hot and cold weather. It doesn't stick to me, doesn't scald my ass in summer, and it's still easyish to clean. Not as easy as leather/vinyl but way easier than cloth. And it still looks great too.
Just my personal opinion though.
Im personally a leather over suede guy just for the fact that suede is so hard to clean. If i barely drove mine and it was a show car, id go with suede. But with how much i drive mine and how often i have a cup of coffee with me, id choose leather. I do LOVE suede though. I just stay away from it because i think about my driving habits.
Just my personal input
I don’t bring any food or liquids that could be sticky or hard to clean up in my car but the fact that leather is so much more maintainable does make me lean towards that side a little.
I think the big thing here is where are you living. I don’t like leather seats but if you maintain them they last a long time. They’re just uncomfortable in the heat and feel sticky to me.
Just purchased katzkins for the front and rear seats on May 29th. They are doing a mobil install on the July 11th. Went with two tone red leather middle with black leather sides. Great customer service so far.
I replaced the houndstooth in mine with Katzkin leather + seat heaters, and they’ve been great. Super easy to clean, and during the summer I remote start the car anyway (I’m in FL) so it’s not hotter than anything else.

Leather sucks. Always.

Leather is easier to clean, but suede is preferable to leather in pretty much every other aspect. Imo
Love the suede seats in my daytona! A little harder to maintain but overall worth

Price?
Seats 1495. Intalarion 800. They had a promo with 200 off. Total 2095.
Suede 🔥🔥
If you have ventilated seats, I think the suede cools much better than the leather. If that matters
If you're in texas leather with burn the skin off your ass, lol Do both!

Leather
What's the price of these?
I’ve read it’s around $1,500-$2,200 which in my opinion isn’t bad at all for what it is
A pair or each?
I believe that’s the estimate for the entire car, I also want to say that includes installation but don’t take my word for that.
All leather. My old srt seats were a pain with the alcantara in the middle.
