I can attest to a difference I experienced in September. When driving with shorts, I have always used a medium sized hand towel under my legs to keep from sweating. When I was on vacation in September, I found I never needed to do this in my TL because sweat was not a problem. And I've had other cars with perforated leather seats, so these must do their job better.

Maybe Acura will consider this feature in future models.
Like Southern Garcon (Boy), I find the peforated leather a must to avoid a bad case of Swamp Azz in the hot Virginia climate. My Outback has perforations as well, so i guess after a day of rock-climing, outdoorsmen and women also like prforated leather. The leather in my Outback would make some here happy - it is hard as a rock, feels like vinyl, but resists butt prints. Pick you poison.
