Even better than the alcantara leather. This one is by Kleemann. Anyone know how much this costs?

Yeow! The question is: How much would I pay NOT to have that interior in my S-500?

ehh.. its alright, I can't decide if I like it or not... but I agree w/ vraa anyway, the stiching needs to be a different color.

**edit**

hmm, now that I look at it some more... I really like it. The purple makes it look, well, different. But it seems to be growing on me.

Sorry guys, the picture cheats, it's not purple, it's very dark red actually very elegant.

See the nice thing is, that this interior was designed by the customer for the car him self, this interior was his dream and he loves it, you can design your interior as well, this is what custom building cars is all about.
He doesn't care if you like his KLEEMANN interior, HE LIKES IT.

So you can pretty much have any interior you desire? much better than what brabus offers.

Porsche does it to all his customers, that's why you see all
kinds of different type of interiors....yellow stitching, purple, red, green!..you name it. To each it's cup of tea.....Not mine tough.

That right BRABUS/Porsche offers customers choise in colour and stiching.

But here we are talking design of the pattern, this is not possible by BRABUS, it's off the shelve pattern in different colours.

I think Brabus will do that too, all you have to do is pay them I´ve seen their "leather-shop" and it was very impressive. And as it says in their brochure: "Our experienced saddlery masters are happy to provide information and advice to help clients ascertain and satisfy their individual needs and desires"

Just as Porsche can customize an interior, Mercedes has Designo which do the same, BMW has Individual, Audi has Quattro GmbH and so on.

Ill answer this one-

The customer has complete design input for color combinations and "special requests" (special stitching etc). KLEEMANN has spent quite a bit of time with the parterning of the Napa and Alcantara. Our covers are not exact duplicates of original covers. We nip a bit here and tuck a bit there for a unique appearence and fit.

Of course the interiors carry our name- we design/manufacture/install them- why shouldnt they?

Would "special requests" cost significantly more than the regular Alcantara Kleemann interior upgrade? Also when you say "cover" what exactly do you mean? The only part being replaced when one orders a custom interior is the leather part right? Not the Mechanical part of the seat, or is it the whole seat?

It's "only" the covers which are redesigned / changed, but if you want dash board ect.ect. ( no plastic inside ) covered with leather
or Alcantare, this is possible too.
The interior picture in the start of this thread, taks much more stiching hours than a "normal" job, because of the Harlekin design, so price will follow the request of the client.
