Matt L... I think it's funny that every time you mention not having leather you get a hit on "What? A 210 with no leather?"

Benzcouple: Meguiar's makes some really good stuff. I've not tried their leather treatment -- nor the Leatherique mentioned in the Sticky -- but have had good results with Zymol (I usually wait too long to do it, so I use both their cleaner, which is a bit smelly, and then their treatment/conditioner).

How did the Meguiar's product smell? Is it an all-in-one, cleaner, treatment conditioner or just the latter?

Musikmann: I have a friend with an E63...excellent car of course, but the reason I mention it is that his headliner is some sort of synthetic suede. Feels and looks great. I don't know if that's the standard for all the newer 211s but it is pretty great. Of course I don't know how it will look after a couple of years if the driver is tall with greasy hair.

Take care and enjoy the ride,
Greg

That sounds like Alacantra, and I think it's standard on certain models; maybe an oprion on others, but I don't know that. I have no idea what that material is made of.

p.s. It must be nice to "run" in such exclusive circles

The meguiars leather conditioner smells very nice. My car smells fresh after I use it.
