anyways, the perforated seats arent even close in softness compared to the semi-aniline seats in the LS. i'd rather have the seats in the IS be made out of alcantara or suede.

I love our perforated seats, but I don't like those shiny silver things beneath some of the holes. I assume it's part of the heater/fan mechanism?
(Yes, I am being way too picky).

I had heated only, non perforated seats in my '08 IS250 X-Package. Base cloth seats are actually alot more comfortable and soft.

Just my 2¢ (;

HA! Neither have I!

I think its because it is a "cheap" option to add that everyone just got it. (at least here)

In NJ,and Maryland(where I bought the IS) I never saw non perforated seats either. Most of the IS's sold here are AWD's.

I believe the perforated leather is Semi-Aniline?
