One More Vote For Supple Leather

I have it in my 996 cabriolet and I love it. It is much more comfortable on a long drive than the standard leather and I am at 42,500 miles - it looks brand new.

Supple Leather reminds of my long deceased grandmother's leather davenport. The only thing it's missing is clear plastic covering.

Nope. Don't like it, especially in a sports car.

I am a fan of Supple Leather especially in the 911 Turbo. . . I think it's old school, classy and when treated well, will look new forever.

Not sure if I could buy a car with supple just because I am so damn young for that look but I can surely appreciate it!

Have it in our 996 and regret not getting it in the 958. I can't figure out why anyone likes having non-functional (meaning no AC in the seats) holes in their seats.

Our 996 is an 01 and has lived outside its entire life, has about 70k, and we've only treated the leather once or twice. Still looks new.
