Default Perma plate? Need your advice fellow S4 people... (more)

My car is in! Silver/Onyx at MSRP. The dealer is asking if I want to perma-plate it and treat the interior for an additional $500. Is this worthwhile at all? I will baby the car, garage it, etc...

Default WTF is Perma plate?

Do NOT get the leather sealed. Clean and treat it twice a year and it will last forever. This kind of stuff from the dealer is complete garbage. Just have them wax and vacuum it.

It's some treatment to the body before they wax...probably useless

Default I thought that Perma Plate was installed at the Factory?

CUSTOMER
We sat here right in this room and
went over this and over this!

JERRY
Yah, but that TruCoat -

CUSTOMER
I sat right here and said I didn't
want no TruCoat!

JERRY
Yah, but I'm sayin', that TruCoat,
you don't get it and you get
oxidization problems. It'll cost
you a heck of lot more'n five
hunnert -

CUSTOMER
You're sittin' here, you're talkin'
in circles! You're talkin' like
we didn't go over this already!

JERRY
Yah, but this TruCoat -

CUSTOMER
We had us a deal here for nine-
teen-five. You sat there and
darned if you didn't tell me
you'd get this car, these options,
WITHOUT THE SEALANT, for nine-
teen-five!

JERRY
Okay, I'm not sayin' I didn't -

CUSTOMER
You called me twenty minutes ago
and said you had it! Ready to
make delivery, ya says! Come on
down and get it! And here ya are
and you're wastin' my time and
you're wastin' my wife's time and
I'm payin' nineteen-five for this
vehicle here!

JERRY
Well, okay, I'll talk to my boss...
He reises and, as he leaves:

JERRY
... See, they install that TruCoat
at the factory, there's nothin' we
can do, but I'll talk to my boss.

PermaPlate is good stuff. It's liquified bullsh*t. No one will touch your car with this in place!
