Alcantara seats: how's the feel? (GTS/TURBOS OWNERS)

Hey guys,

I was wondering if any of you have the leather/alcantara seats. I'd like to know how's the overall feel of it? Does it bother you while driving? While getting in/out of the vehicle? Does it get hot? Does it hold well while turning left/right sharply?

I ask because I am looking for a 09 white Turbo S with steelgray/black interior for a cousin overseas. It's just impossible to find (new or used) but I found the right car expect it has the leather/alcantara seats.

I have the 2 tone brown/black in mine so I can't tell.

Your feedback is well appreciated! Thanks!

I agree with christx997, alcantara seats are nice and should hold you better than a full leather seat. However, sports seats should hold you better than the standard comfort seats but the comfort seats aren't too much of a slouch for holding you in place either.
