Whoa! Thanks. That's the one to use!

The Subaru dealer selling the GLC doesn't even know the actual color. They listed it as Graphite Grey. It's Mojave Silver.

Huh, looks like a very interesting spec. Leather and heated rear seats but it’s missing the burmester audio system.

Surprised no Burmester. Also has analog gauges. It's a 2020 and doesn't have the spare tire option which I really prefer.

Ventilated seats require the leather option.

I have the MBTex, find it comfortable, though i don't know how the leather feels.

I have heard a lot of good things about it being very durable and am happy about that, but, I will say i miss that real leather smell.

That doesn't make sense. MB-tex is far more durable

My 2c:
After upgrading to leather, could not go back…
Leather seats are completely different look and feel, experience, one should try both and then decide.

you have a V167, not an X253, so I guess that's possible, but I would want to see your datasheet or window sticker before I fully believe that. I love the ventilated seats in my 2015 SL400 and my daughter's 2017 GLC300, both with leather, but I was unable to select ventilated seats when ordering my 2022 GLC with MBTex....

New MB Models introduced in or after 2019 (new from the ground up) offer ventillated seats on MB-Tex. So the current gen A/CLA/GLA etc, the 167 GLE/GLS since 2020, the new gen C Class since 2022, the new gen GLC since 2023, the new gen E Class since 2024, etc. So on a 2015 ML or a 2022 GLC you couldn't have ventillated seats without leather, but on the newer generation you can.
