I'd say leather is better. Doesn't get dirtly, looks more professional, cleaner, compliments a clean interior, etc.


If you are an auto-xer, you'd be sliding all over the place on leather though.

Leather holds me in place fine, but maybe it's because of my big butt h:

I think leather is nice in the beginning. If you're good at taking care of it over the years, it's probably good 'til the end too.

But cloth is better suited to my lifestyle. I usually park outdoors and I barely vaccuum my interior so I don't think I'd be willing to condition my seats once or twice a month or however often you're supposed to. Also, I slide around too much in leather seats when turning at higher speeds.
