I agree. I have the Nevada leather in the X3 - they have no upgrade option as yet.
It really feels plasticy and thin.
I have a lounge made by Lay-Z-boy and the leather on it feels even thinker and stronger than anything in the BMW range.
I feel I can drop a steak knife on the couch and not mark it, but I am scared of how I sit in the Z4 and X3 when I wear jeans in case the rivets make a park.
I know I could get them re-upholstered, but I would prefer it if BMW had some really good leather in the options box.
