Default Bespoke blue/white interior upkeep?

Anyone has the bespoke blue/white interior and if so how has it been with upkeep on the white leather?

Do not ever wear jeans is the best advice I can give you.

White leather interior never ages well. Go look on the sc430 forum or just google white interior sc430 and you can see what it’ll look like in a few years.

I would also argue the leather in the sc430 is miles better than what we have in the LC. Back in those days cost was no object and that leather was like almost 1/4 inch thick. I believe it was sourced from specific Spanish cows that had the best grain. Not like this semi anline leather we have today which is basically crap leather with a layer of plastic on top.

The leather in the old SC and SC's was phenomenal.

The LC semi-aniline leather is pretty cheap, IMO.

If they made a full Porsche-like semi-aniline leather interior with every surface covered I would easily pay another $6-8k just for that option.

I also wish they would get rid of the ugly brown they have and offer a baseball-glove Cuoio leather interior.
