What type of material for seats are better, more comfortable for you and why?
*Valcona leather
*Alcantara-Leather combination
*Silk Nappa leather
And what is difference between Valcona leather and Silk Nappa leather?

Valcona is naturally tanned and dyed, with Rubarb, regular cow hide from what I can tell.
Slik Nappa is calf hide, softer but yet very durable.

I prefer the Alacantra/Silk Nappa combo, it seems to wear good. Also, it breathes well in the Summer, and you don't freeze in the Winter.

So Silk Nappa is much better then Valcona: more comfortable, soft and durable? Am I right?
And is Alcantara-Leather combination always goes with Silk Nappa in Audi or it is exclusive option? Because the configurator only say Alcantara-Leather combination, without details.
Thanks!

As far as I know, it comes with Perl Nappa and Alcantara. Only for the A8 it comes with Valcona and Alcantara.

Hey fathers on the forum, who tried to install baby seat on the rear seats of A5/S5? How is it to reach the child without rear doors? Any disadvantages of coupe from this side of view? May be somebody can provide a picture if it is not very difficult.
Thanks guys!

silk leather is the best - I have also alcantara/nappa leather in Q and that does not feel as good as silk nappa in rs6 .... :nono:
