So far, definitely less squish than the seats in the MKI, and they feel narrower - I do wonder how well they'd fit someone much wider than me.

I love 'em. Coming from the Alcantara, I thought leather would be slippery under semi-aggressive driving, but they're sticky and completely awesome. And - although it's clearly not a concern for you - they're not too bold looking in basic black.

It was in stock at a dealer near the dealer I bought it from, and they were able to swipe it and deliver the same day. Cosmetically, it was what I was looking for and although I'd prefer to have the air suspension, it seemed like a hassle to wait for that. Dealer said that it was one of only four Daytona Grays available in the eastern region at the moment, whatever that's worth.

Yeah - my first impression is that the whole car is more angular and severe and German. Even the interior door handles are pointier and less squishy than the MKI, and I think the steering wheel is, as well. The ride's perfectly fine, but the cabin's definitely a little angrier.

I just finished my order for our '18 Prestige. We waffled between the walnut and ash. I just couldn't justify the cost. Two days later it was still bugging me. I really liked the looks of the open pore matte ash. So what the hell. I called the dealer back and asked if they'd split the difference. An hour later I got a call back. "Done and we've changed your order for you."
Fine grain ash for the win!

I paid for the ash, and it doesn't look good at all, I'm hoping it's just the photos sent by my dealer. Car just came in, haven't seen it in person yet.
