Right. This is the first I've heard of it being used on the dash. The dash on my E39 M5 is leather, and I believe the optional leather dash on the F10 M5 and F8X M3/4 is also leather. I wonder if the new M cars will have Sensatec dashes as well. Makes sense as the leather on the dash is so thin and stretched tight, you probably can't tell the difference. |
you probably cannot tell. I've heard from SA's that sensatec holds up better in the long-run as compared to leather.
I'd be a bit concerned about leather drying out on the dash facing the hot sun all day, year after year...
I'm interested to see if this sensatec dash is smooth or textured. |
Yep. Leather dashes are sometimes a problem in Ferrari's in which they shrink and need to be tended to. Could happen to any Leather dash I would think.
