I've had Dakota leather.......I've had Nappa leather......I've had leatherette.......I've had Speed Cloth........and I've had M-Alcantara. All of these surfaces will age/weather/etc. depending on the driver, and how the driver maintains them. Generalized statements about which wears better are irrelevant because there are too many factors/variables to consider. My 2 year old Palladium Silver leather in my 11.5 E92 M3 still looked brand new when I traded that car this past May. How you enter and exit the vehicle determines wear on the bolsters seat cushions, etc. Maybe I'm just anal or overly particular about how I care for my cars, but I don't experience wear issues like some of you have mentioned on this forum.
