General Banter Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) Just picked up my first Supra last night (yay) and was quite surprised to find leather seats in the back only, is this correct? All cloth yes, all leather yes but half and half?? I could maybe understand leather fronts as they'll inevitably see the most use, the back seats are so small that on the odd occasion I do find myself offering a lift to Ronnie Corbett I don't see why he should have all the fun!

SUPRALOOPY Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 you don't have leather in the back ;0) But yes this is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hi, this is the norm for imported Supras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamaSupra Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 The backseats are that kind of vinyl/leather material for incase there's to be any backseat fun, you can then simply wipe off any mess or spillages with ease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 The rear vinyl seats remind me of the good ol' days when cars tended to have vinyl seats throughout. When left out in the sun all day you could practically fry an egg on the vinyl. That's what it felt like to me anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Leatherette, my mistake! Thanks for the replies, seems an odd thing to do though I find it weird when I see pictures of peoples' J-specs with cloth front seats and leatherette rear seats. It does seem to be a strange combo to come from the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I prefer the cloth fronts to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XIL007 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 yeah it is a strange one this, my last TT had leather all round, but to be honest i thought the cloth seats were better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 i liked the cloth on my old facelift. they had cloth in the back too. but the leather in my uk were freezing in the winter and boiling in summer. i got some recaros and had them trimmed with leather and alcantara centres and its the perfect compromise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Stock cloth with stock gray carpet added to stock gauges dates the car really badly IMO. Remove all the above ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-one234 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 i picked up my first supra a week ago and thats a jap import and too has the cloth at the front and leatherette in the rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraDan24 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'd never have leather fronts again after my first supra, freezing in the winter, sweltering in the summer. I've got half leather, half alacantra now and its a happy medium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
