Again... has he said he is vegan? Perhaps the interior is from the endangered Nauga (as in naugaHIDE). Sheesh, give the guy a break!
Well, let's see. Al's got a BMW Z3. Since it's convertible, it must be a roadster (the coupe isn't convertible). It could be a 2.5i or a 3.0i. I'm not sure which one, and I haven't seen it mentioned.
But, standard on a 2.5i, is
- Leatherette upholstery
- Leather-wrapped M-sport steering wheel, leather gearshift boot, handbrake grip and boot
Optional
- Leather upholstery with matching leather door panel inserts
And on the 3.0i, standard,
- Leather upholstery with matching leather door panel inserts
- Leather-wrapped M-sport steering wheel, leather manual gearshift boot, and handbrake grip and boot
and optional,
-Extended leather interior
I have no idea what "leatherette" is, but it's probably fake leather. Even if it is though, the steering wheel, gearshift boot and handbrake are real leather. I don't know anything about BMW replacement parts, to know if they can be replaced with something similiar and not leather.
All the information above was taken from the BMW website, so if it's inaccurate, blame them, not me!
