Back in April, I used the AAA Auto Buying program to purchase a Prius c Three. I really wanted Blue Streak Metallic but was informed that there were none available in my area in any trim level and if I were to order one it would take several weeks, if not months, to arrive. Since this car would be replacing a Corolla in need of a new engine, I simply could not wait that long. The only Prius c Three they had on the lot was Black Sand Pearl with aftermarket leather already installed. Having never owned a black car before, but always thought they looked pretty slick, I decided to take it. While I would not have chosen to add leather if I was given the choice due to the extra cost, I was happy not to go back to cloth seats since my 2 previous cars had factory installed leather which I enjoyed very much. And since I was purchasing through AAA Buying Program, I received a nice discount which made the price pretty reasonable I think. Even though I found out quickly how hard it is to keep looking clean, I absolutely love my Black Pearl!
Very cool! I like that the leather seats look the same as the cloth ones. I like the design, but I'd rather have leather.
They are made by a company called Katzkin. I checked out their website and they work directly with dealerships and other aftermarket professionals. Have a look... Car Leather Upholstery | Custom Auto Leather Interiors by Katzkin
Thanks! I didn't realize the leather look the same as the cloth until I saw pictures online after I bought my car. I would have like the design on the cloth as well but I love the leather
