leather

Does your car smell like it really has a leather interior? I've got the "ultra-premium" leather on my 2011 and there is almost no leather smell at all. In fact, almost no "new car smell" of any kind. Not that that's a particularly bad thing, but . . . my 11 year old BMW Z3 still smells (mm .. )...

I am on my second Genesis. The first one had regular leather..no problems. The new one has the saddle premium leather. It is very soft and comfortable. However, only a month after I bought the car I started to notice that the seat back was bubbling whenever I would be damp from perspiration...

Hey guys. I am reading the e-visaid for the 2011 and the interior color choices show leather and premium leather. Drove a 4.6 today right after I drove a Volvo S80 and a Jaguar XF and the softness of the Genesis 4.6 was better!! Curious if this is an option or if the car has both versions...

I'm looking to replace the leather gear boot (for the stick shift) in my Genesis 2.0T. I know it's fairly easy to do and I found a great one that I'm going to replace the other one with. My question is how do I know if it's the right size? Is there dimensions I have to follow? Any other advice...

My 2009 V6 Genesis is 18 months old. I noticed today that the leather wrapping on the top of the steering wheel is rough and shows small cracks. This can't be from the heat because the car has very low mileage and stays in the garage when not in use. Anyone else noticed this? I will show...

I have a 09 Genesis and was wondering what is a good leather cleaner, and conditioner.

I finally got around to taking some pictures. Thanks to all the help from this forum my car is AMAZING and looks good too. The sun was out in full force today so the interior pictures look a little dull. I can assure you the interior looks rich in person thanks to 303 Aerospace Protectant!!!

I was cleaning the interior and noticed the leather insert which wraps from the dash to the front doors and on to the rear doors skips the b pillar. I was trying to figure out if it would look more correct without the interruption.

Just came across this gem in a very early review of the Sedan. I'd heard about the auto defogger/humidity sensor, but this is the first I've seen about the Genny being the only one in its class to have a steering wheel designed to stay :cool: Quote below: "An automatic windshield defogger...

Anyone know of a good leather cleaner and/or conditioner? My seats aren't dirty yet, but I imagine they will be after time plus I'd like a good leather conditioner to keep the leather supple.

We noticed shortly after delivery that the holes on the top of the driver's seat were exposed and not covered by the plastic housings. This exposed the yellowish seat cushioning and the portion of the headrest posts that are attached to the seat. The passenger's side seat did not exhibit the...

Has anyone noticed a lack in quality of the leather seats? Particularly the most often used seat - your drivers seat... hehe go figure. :) Mine seems to be losing color, and has small strings coming from the perforated holes in it towards the front of the bottom half... if this makes...

Excited about my 4.6 Tau Black Noir Pearl/saddle ... looking for the best leather cleaner and conditioner forthe interior. Any suggestions? As a side note ... my brother-in-law has a boxter ... guess who is envious and in the dust?

I somehow scratched the leather seat on the driver side :mad: Do any of you guy have any experience with leather seat repair. The scratch is not very deep, but I can see how over time that scratch could turn into a tear since it's right where my left butt cheek lands. HELP!!!

My V8 tech is not even a week old with 400 miles and the driver seat bottom is all stretched. I'm not a large guy by any mean :p, 5'8" 165lbs in shape. I love how much softer and better the "ultra premium leather" feels but does it come with a sacrifice in durability?

I have Ultra Leather seats and the drivers seat is being to "pill" threads are lifting from the perforations on the bolster on the edge near the door. I have never had this happen with leather seats. anyone else seeing this?

im currently looking to swap with anyone my interior brown leather trim pieces (across the dash & upper pieces on all 4 doors) with anyone that has the interior mahgony wood trim pieces (base models) only serious inquires please, im also willing to provide pics if needed & require the same (pics...

Just trying to get some feedback on what you guys like for the leather interior. I have used several products on my Lexus, and just trying to see what others on here have used and what they like the best.

A few of us sat in a V8 Genesis over the weekend - and I don't believe any of us felt a difference between the leather of the V6 and V8. It felt the same to us. If there's any difference at all, it's bearly noticeable. Has anyone actually noticed a big difference? If so - tell us about it...

Which do you prefer for the dashboard of the new Hyundai Genesis? The padded leather? Or the woodgrain?
