I realize that MBTex wears like iron, but I always found the notion of a luxury car with vinyl upholstery sort of cheesy. As an aside, why is it that MBUSA pushed MBTex so hard, when every other manufacturer had cloth readily available in North American markets? Aside from gray market cars, one almost never sees cloth/velour in US market Mbz cars.
