My S63 has this seating option and I was wondering if any one has had any issues with dye from your clothes (ie jeans, etc...) staining or discoloring the leather? Any suggestions to keep them clean other than a cover?

Thanks,

First, congrats on your new coupe! Enjoy and post some pics!

I have had really good luck with light interiors. Porcelain/black nappa in our SL and Crystal gray/sea shell exclusive nappa in the S-class.
The sedan is too new to tell but the white has been great even with dark jeans. Over time is does stain a little bit and I use a soft cotton cloth with water only (no soap or cleaner) and wipe the seat off, followed by a clean dry cotton cloth.

The blue comes right off. No wear/stains after 2 years plus and convertible interiors get dirtier than any other car...

I used all different leather conditioners/cleaners but those actually deteriorate the leather. Just a moist cloth keeps the leather cleanest and factory new looking. It also keeps the sun reflective coating on the seats intact...

Thanks, for the tip. I had a 2001 Lexus SC430 convertible with saddle brown interior and my drivers seat was extremely discolored from blue jeans after a while I could get some of it out but it still looked different from the passengers seat. Hopefully this leather is coated or treated to help prevent that.

Actually when in Paris 5 months ago, my wife was looking at a Celine purse in white leather and they asked if she wore jeans as it would rub on her pants if she wore the shoulder strap and could cause discoloration so I guess its just one of those things.

Just so darn hot here in New Orleans. Black is easiest to keep looking nice but sooooo hot in the summer.

Thanks,

Rob

Here are some pics! I'll try and take some more in the daytime but the interior at night is just stunning, It's like a whole other car!

Looks really nice

...but please get rid of those all-season floor mats

No way! I have the AMG floor mats but the all weather mats protect the carpet. Also makes spill clean up easy
