Have very slight buyer's remorse for not getting the red leather. How much do you think it would cost to get the seating covers replaced? Would a dealership actually do it?

No, dealer will not do it. Your only option would be a custom job. I have had leather in most of my vehicles and I am impressed with the MBtex on my CLA (first experience). I can honestly tell you, it is holding up way way way better than real leather after 1 year, wipe it clean as good as new.

I don't even want leather in my future c450 if at all possible.
