      Gf must be asian. They sure do love their whitening creams over there. Meanwhile the white folks are all tanning.

          Is the interlagos on the door trims as well or just on the seats? Any other difference to the interior besides the seats when comparing the cloth and leather seats option?

            Forget the roof - get the Latte and get the windows tinted.

            I've climbed into mine with the outside temp on 45, and obviously the inside was hot, but the leather was no hotter than cloth would have been. You'll notice the steering wheel heat more than the seat heat.

            When I want fresh air through the car, I just drop all the windows making one big "sunroof"

                looks better, smells better, better to clean and women go nuts for the heated seats. my girlfriend and her friends cant get enough of them!!

                  I've got both on the Jetta and think both are great to have but if I had the choice of one or the other I would choose leather. Easy to clean, looks and smells great, I don't find it at all hot in summer contrary to some other owners, and the seat heating is great in winter.

                  I use the sunroof a great deal, as much in winter as in any other time, a good option to get fresh air in without being buffeted by wind.

                  Definitely worth stretching the budget to both if you possibly can.

                  Cheers
