Q: With the extended merino leather and without the ventilated seat option do we still get perforated leather?

Q: I hear massage seat option gives very subtle massage. Since merino is softer than Vernasca leather would the massage functions be felt better with Merino?

Q: Ventilated seat option in F15 made the seat harder. Is it still the case with G05?

Q: Since sensatech leatherette dash is standard and I hear it looks good, does it still make sense to order leather dash?
No ventilation no perforation. And I think it looks better without but still I took the ventilated seats.

The massage function is not subtle at all. Even in position 1/3 it is very obvious.

I have the leather dash and it looks great. I had sensatec in my last and it looks good too. Maybe leather looks a bit better and feels softer but sensatec is more forgiving. So not absolutely necessary and quite expensive.

I don't think my seats are too hard but I prefer harder German seats above French soft seats. I think in the US your seat preference is a bit softer.
