as far as the sticky request, what we really need is a cabrio section. that would be the place to sticky this thread.

Agreed. I looked for one for a minute before I realized it was non existent :(

Did your car not come with the M-Tech/Evo cloth from the factory?

[CorvallisBMW]

I wouldn't mind this being stickied, but I'm not really sure where to put it...

[e30austin]

Top of "general discussion" perhaps?

[Badgtho]

I'll vote for a Cabrio section

yes, it did.

[e30austin]

yes, it did.

Interesting, because the VIN decoder lists it as having schwarz volleder (0318). I wonder if you bought a 771 package car, it came with Evo cloth, regardless of what the VIN decoder lists.

Well they do have black leather seats with M tech cloth centers. The M tech cloth inserts could technically be part of the 771 package. I just noticed that other 771 cars also have SCHWARZ VOLLEDER (0318) as standard, which translates to "black full leather." As to why, Robrez's car does not have the M tech cloth...I am not sure. The leather inserts all look factory, yet I haven't seen another car with the same door panel inserts anywhere. I think his car originally came with the M Tech cloth but for one reason or another, it was changed/deleted. The original owner could have had the dealer do it...who knows.

Interesting. I guess you learn something new every day!
