I have both, Blue Alcantara in my Typhoon and Black leather in another!

Voted for Alcantara.

I voted leathers as it tends to look a little healthier than a lot of the alcantera I've seen. It would would appear to take ware a little better not withstanding the bolsters.

Default Leather or Alcantara

Consider how difficult it would be to clean kid's vommit from Alcantara, and then you may consider that leather is the sensible choice!

I personally think it depends on the style of the seats, but my personal preference would be alcantar in a ZT like I have fitted in my ZT-T.

I don't have a ZT but when I do get one it'll have leather fitted because my kids are messy little goobers and leather cleans easier

I put a set of dark grey leather Rover 75 electric / memory seats in my ZT.
Just plug em in and away you go.
Dont quite hug you like the alcantara sports seats but way more comfortable for trips and softens the ride a bit as well,way more durable as the alcantara seats always wear through on the bolsters.

Personally, I think the Monaco's look great in a ZT. But then again, I am biased!



Given the choice though, I would LOVE red alcantara!
