I have alcantara inserts on the front seats of my STI and they seem to be holding up pretty well. I'm careful not to rub my butt all over the place though and I normally cover the seats if i'll be getting into the car sweaty from a long day in the sun.

LOL maybe, but being here curbs my appetite for a Porsche since i cannot afford one.

 

I love the feel and the grip! I have it my '08 C2S and it looks new! Just wipe it down and you are god to go!
