Leather Or Wheels

[BlueXR6Turbo]

IMO contrary to what a lot of people here have said, I reckon that the standard cloth interior looks great. Probably depends on what colour you get. Mine is Plexis Blue (not Plexis Blueprint). I prefer the feel of cloth to leather and I'm used to it, so that's why I didn't fork out for the leather.

I did however fork out the extra for the 18's. This was mainly because I was of the opinion that "bigger is better" (as far as looks go anyway).

Animal, mineral, vegetable?

the leather certainly is awesome & for my 2CW a better seat to ride in. However each time I see 18's on an XR I wish I had them as well. Vegetables well they're the ones who didn't read the whole topic & ensuing posts.

Leather for sure. You can always do wheels later on.

Thanks for your opinions everyone. I think I will go for the leather and sound. Wheels can wait. Or maybe I will try out an XR8....Hmmm that is a topic for this time next year.

There is also a new Sports leather that has just been release. VEry stecthy but is optioned by different colour stitching.

It cost about ant extra $500 on top of the normal leather. Worth the enquiry

good choice.

I'm so glad I got the leather and I'm glad I got the 17's, but just to throw a spanner in the works, are you getting the premium brakes? I'd have forgone the leather for the brakes if I had to choose between the two....

Thanks for the info about the different leather, I will make enquiries. As for the brakes I will stick to the standard as Ford are saying that they have sorted the rotor issue for new build vehicles.

I would have ordered leather in my "T" however with 3 children all under the age of 8 I couldn't have seen it lasting too long. Leather certainly adds a touch of class.
