Interior color line

Hey there,

I looked around but I can't find an answer to this. Is the interior color line of the 2007-08 made of vinyl, plastic, leather or some other material? I guess I really only want to know if it's leather or not so I know how to treat it.

Definitely feels like vinyl/plastic. Sorry I can't give you a for-sure answer, but hopefully someone definitely knows.

Not leather. Very easy to clean. So far I have used Rite Aid window cleaner, soap and water, leather conditioner.....very easy!

I've conditioned the yellow one in my MIni with 303. Seemed to clean off a couple finger prints of factory workers.

Ok, sounds like I should just use a vinyl protectant (thinking Nero). Thanks for the feedback folks!
