The alcantara will get matted and pill up from the oils on your hands. Driving gloves are a requirement if you intend to keep this looking nice.

If you can find a good deal on one, buy two. You'll be happy you did in about 20k miles.

thank you.
Must be nice having cars swapped out that often. You must not care much about losing money, unless you can manage to find cars that appreciate.

C'mon, you'd look REALLY cool driving around with gloves; you know it.
