What interior is this?

Can anyone ID this interior from a 04 MCS? It looks to be somewhat grey. Is this what they call "Panther Black"? Since the seats have the lumbar adjust, they must be real leather, correct?

Thanks,

Appears to be the regular black leather seats.

In other photos I've seen on NAM, the leather always seems to be a gray-ish color.

And yes, must be leather, leatherette does not have adjustable lumbar support.

Just looks gray because of the lighting and quality of the photo.

They look like the normal black leather to me.

I agree that the photo is a little over exposed, but the color of the leather is difinitely grey. I looked at several MINIs before i bought this one, and IIRC there is a black that is "black" not greyish like this one. The dealer I got this from was not knowledgeable about MINI. I have found that this car has quite a few options that I was not aware of at time of purchase. Finding extras is always beeter than finding out that promised options are not actually on the car.
