is this leatherette?

bimmergeek · 12-04-2013, 08:13 AM

I just purchased a 2002 525i without premium. It's about as basic an e39 as possible, but it has only 12.5K miles. The seats are not supposed to be leather, but all the pictures I see of leatherette have a different stitching pattern.

I think it looks pretty good. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Nevermind! Found out that even though this car has no premium package they ARE in fact leather. Yay!

Go here http://www.etk.cc and put in the last 7 of your vin it will give you all the cars options/build sheet.

I can't believe only 12k miles. This my second e39 first one was my first car sold that one with 176k on it. The one i have now has almost the same mileage. Best second car to own IMO.

hahaha just looked and see you have a 335 too. I leave mine in the garage and drive the 530 around all the time.
