How is that white leather holding up?

That's not actually true - a number of IS-F's with the Alpine interior were sent out to dealers this summer as a reward for high sales volume. Those that know me/my post history know I only buy cars off the lot, so that's how I lucked out and got mine, because I never would have special ordered one. My dealership also had two on the lot with another arriving soon (why the salesman was willing to admit that I'm not sure ), so I was able to snag a great deal. Not as good a deal as people are getting now of course, but for back then, I was very happy with it.

Interesting...
I guess they had to figure out a way to get rid of some of those extra White Leather seats they had laying around for the IS-F, @ the factory..

i own the white on white it has been fairly easy to keep clean hell i have yet to get my drivers seat dirty at all but i still wipe the seats with the meguirs wipes every week just to keep the fresh white look on them and i don't wear any type of jeans in the car at all,the alpine is not for everyone if ur not the type to keep your car spotless-stay away from them but it does give the car a more exotic and unique look + the leather is softer than the black

I have fabric transfer on mine blue/red where the small of my back comes in contact. I think it was an isolated incedent and I will try to remove it.
I am thinking of putting black alacantra on the middle portion of the two front seats anyways. What do you guys think?

Are you putting black alcantra in the middle to prevent staining on the white or just for looks? because in my personal experience..I've noticed that the hardest part to stain is definitely the middle as compared to the sides.. but if itsfor looks..thats up to ur opinion..but I wouldnt..

I am doing it for both reasons. In the modification thread they show a pic of black seats with blue alacantra and I liked it. If someone had some photo shop skills maybe they can chop it to give me an idea.
I do not know how that stain got there and I have tried leather cleaner to get it off with no luck. Going to try Meguires next.
