Synthetic suede (Alcantara/Ultrasuede) is everything that suede isn't.

I'm also pretty sure that if the description said "Suede seats", but they still had pictures of Alcantara, no one on here could tell a difference, and probably not even feel a difference. I've heard that synthetic suede even weighs less than the real stuff ; )

PS - you slide around in your seat less when cornering in alcantara vs leather
Thanks, I stand corrected on the suede.

But those floormats - they just don't match?
