Has anyone ordered these seats, and if so, would you mind sharing a picture of what the back seats look like? The configuration falls short in showing you good mockups from within the car.
I don't have them, but I took this picture at my dealer when I was trying to decide what I wanted.
Thank you both! This gives me a good idea of what to expect.
Any regrets with order these? I'm wondering how they will stand up over time vs the leatherette sport seats....

How is the comfort compared to the other seat options? Leatherette was just the right amount of firmness with a hint of plushness.

I feel the firmness is the same as the Leatherette. Did not try the 100 % leather options.Originally Posted by MiniMeR50

The JCW cloth seats are fabulous comfort wise. Neatness wise - cat hair magnet. I do love them though. They are by far the most comfortable car seats I've ever experienced and a lot more comfortable than the 2013 Clubman sport seats I've drove the past couple months. I don't know if this is true or not, having no experience with other F56 seats other than just a sit - but the cloth seems less stiff. Being "blessed" with ample mid-life+ hip and thigh, I thought I could feel the bolsters on the other seats, but I don't notice it with the cloth seats.

I have the same seats but with satellite grey inserts. Very supportive. I find the cloth to be a bit cheap feeling. Almost like nylon/rayon. Feels good but how they'll look in 5 years is a good question.

Here are mine. I love them (have had them for 3 months now). They look great. And yes, my floor mats don't match but I love them anyway!

I have also had mine for about 4 months now. I love the seats every time I open the door.
We have very fluffy cats and one of the things I've found I really like is that the cloth sections of the seats don't attract fur/hair. In my previous car it was quite a task to de-fur the seats.

Can someone who has these confirm something for me. I seem to recall one of the diamond patterned fabrics having a bit of a blue thread running throughout. Was this the one or was it on the seats with grey?
Also, does this seat come with lumbar support, or is that only full leather seats?
It was a few weeks ago we visited a dealership so I'm having trouble remembering.

I've had these seats since July of 14 and they have held up very well. No signs of wear or deterioration.

Why have seats that puts leather / fake leather on your sweaty parts?
The Black Pearl seats are beautiful, plus they put nice breathable cloth where breathing counts, and leatherette on the easily-worn-out bolsters. I'd put them among the best seats available in any car. Ever. Well that may be stretching it, but they're really really nice. Sorry to evangelize...
