Its not suede its Alcantara. Thats what one of my friends told me. I'm in florida and in Miami. Cops down here don't give you a break just cause its a higher end car. Remember what Will Smith said "100,00 cars every body's got one".
Car looks great but the last thing I want is a reason to be pulled over. At the end of my day I go down to a local restuarant and sit at the bar with my partners to have a drink and talk about the day and what tomorrow brings. We almost always have 2 drinks and head home. I drink scotch that **** is on your body for hours your breath your sweat u get the idea. I may not even tint at all

Alcantara is a synthetic material with the feel of suede but not the maintenece hassle. From what I heard Alcantara is practically unstainable, almost everything you spill on it can be removed with simple detergents. So it's kind of like having your cake and eating it too.
I once had an (optically) severe stain in my S55 on the alcantara (greasy kids fingers after McDonalds?) and I got really worried. Howerver, some Woolite, hand warm water and 5 minutes later it was clean
Try doing that with suede...
