Lear is still producing seats for Plant Spartanburg
They are just not producing them for the G05 X5. The first photo was taken of a new G01 X3 that was produced in the past 3 to 4 days. The second photo was taken of a new G05 X5 that was produced in the past 6-7 days.

I don't have many pictures of the back seats but here's one. This doesn't show cognacs color correctly by the way. My wrinkles weren't X5 bad but they existed

Keep in mind that the switch from Lear to Magna had nothing to do with comfort or quality. It was strictly monetary. BMW had asked Lear to reduce their prices and Lear declined. Lear was the only seat supplier to Plant Spartanburg for 24 years.
Typical BMW seats (hard and uncomfortable) with exception to the comfort seats. Last edited by SCA; 03-18-2019 at 08:17 AM.. |

Apart from the initial sticker, how does one know if the car is equipped with Lear or Magna?
