Nappa or Dakota Leather?





In these two pictures are we looking at Nappa or Dakota Leather with Anthracite Wood? I can't tell what is the difference between Nappa and Dakota?

Just joined last night. Looking forward to contributing to this great site and picking up an F10 soon!

Hi,

This leather seats on your photos are Dakota leather.

Nappa leather is much softer, smoother and more rigid then Dakota , definitely you could feel and see the difference - Nappa is much better but more expensive as well

And apart from that, Nappa leather is only available with Comfort seat and those on your photos are standard F10/F11 seat.
