Might be in the market for one of these, but no alcantara?
I loved my 2 tone sport interior in my s4, and I've seen the B7 S4 alcantara recaro seats (they're gorgeous) but when I try to configure on audi's site - it seems leather is the only option, which confuses me.
Is there some reason? Are they not the same seats?
based on my budget I was hoping to pick up a slightly used 07, so being able to custom order wouldn't really solve my problem. Just not sure why audi would do this.
Thoughts? (i searched it didn't seem like a very popular forum topic, which surprises me) maybe audi's site is just having problems today.

Alcantara was not available on the RS4
This was rumored to be due to US DOT requirements of crash testing of each seating material for each model vehicle but may have just been a decision made by Audi.
The only interior options were:
1) black with silver piping
2) silver with black piping
3) Audi Exclusive black with red inserts
4) Audi Exclusive custom - only a handful of these were made and two were black with orange piping
RS4 production has stopped so you can no longer order a RS4.

I have alcantara in my 07 RS4
I was going to install the Euro seats but after driving with them in Europe I passed and ordered a custom set of Recaro Sport Topline seats with leather and black alcantara inserts. They are heated and ventilated which is great here in Las Vegas summer heat. Only one I'm aware of with them installed - PM me and I can send you some pics.
