My last Celica had cloth seats that shredded after 5 years. My new Celica has dealer installed leather seats that turned out to be the original cloth seats overlayed with a gorgous leather seat cover.(front and rear) They seem heavier duty than the factory seats, but for the price I feel I should have gotten all new seats. Goodluck!!

I've owned cars with both and like my cloth interiors better now! -Better to keep you in the seat while cornering. -Not so hot in summer (even with tint) -Winter doesn't really make a big deal -Most cars with leather "seating" area have vinyl sides/backs which end up cracking and look like shit, plus the "sat in" look on the actual leather. I'd only get leather on my next car if it was a luxury car that I didn't plan on keeping more than 5 yrs.
