Vernasca is a tough leather which require no maintenance care

Sensatec is actually softer but synthetic, if BMW was not telling us it was sensatec I think most people would be fooled by it.

I, personaly believe Vernasca offer best compromise as I think leather will wear better than Sensatec, which I think will degrade and fall apart in long terms 10+ years, like most chemical based textile. And Merino will scratch and look crappy over time as well. So I am going with Vernasca. I have Dakota in my X5 10+ years and it looks great. I have never ever even wipes it I hope Vernasca will be as good.
Great choice. I think you'll be happy! All the best...I hope your wait is a short one
