Dude, you may be happy now since it's new and all. Once the "new feeling" wears off, you'll regret that you didn't get the leather seats or options you've originally wanted. I'm just speaking from past experience.
Oh, btw, the resale later on down the road is lower without the leather.
Enjoy your new ride.

Yep, I have katzkin's on my Z..... provided you go to a competent installer, it will look just as good as stock IF not better.

i'd be very surprised if you got your money back for the leather on resale. as a general rule, the money spent on most options is not recovered on resale unless it changes the vehicles badging ( LX/DX/GX etc).

Another reason why I like the Honda/Acura pricing system.
