I think this is the right place to ask... I'm interested in getting a full cloth interior somewhat soon, but it seems that having an ad out for one for some months in advance is more helpful than anything. Right now I have cloth tan sport seats in my E30, but I'd love to do a full houndstooth or plaid swap. However, it appears that this stuff can't be found very easily in the US. Meanwhile, I check out the UK eBay occasionally, and I see a full grey plaid interior go for like 100 pounds... Damn. So, how often can I expect to find a nice cloth interior?

IIRC Grey plaid interior was available for European and Japan spec cars only.
My interior I transplanted from a Japan spec car.

Not uncommon in early ES and E cars that were optioned out. Later cars we were not given the choice. Leather or Leather.Comment

Well, that's a shame. Someone was selling a mint black houndstooth sport interior, probably what I want more than anything, just recently but I wasn't really in the position to purchase it as I had only money to spend on my 24v swap. I'll have money whenever my E24 sells though.Comment

You could get full clothe sport interior in the 318is. Mine has it.

318is that came with cloth are all cloth, tan or dark gray. They have veritical slanted lines in the centers. Door panels have cloth and vinyl to match.Alex 88 m5 | 91 318is | 19 Subaru Ascent

Can't quite tell if it's houndtooth or just striped. Either way, I want it in my car.Comment

I have a full cloth sport interior that I would sell at the end of the month. It is in excellent condition (one of the best I've seen). No rust on tracks, no tear, stains, or sloppy brackets. I have the front seats, rear seats, and matching door cards (not the ones shown). $600 + shipping from Golden, Colorado.

If you contact me about that interior I may be interested. Depends on my finances at the time, but if you're interested I need a complete interior of ANY color.
If you can come down on price at all, it'd be a great help and may aid me in jumping on that. Either way, I need a full interior, and you've got one. We should talk.Comment

Well, since this thread is on the topic of cloth sports seats. I was wondering if any of you had seen this beaut before? It came from an early model and all I could find was a printed tab that reads (sportsseat) I'm wondering what it is looks a lot like the RECARO. What do you guys think?
To the OP sorry for thread crapping but I don't want to start a new thread for this.
