I recently got a 2016 R with the Alcantara/Suede interior. However, I never got a clear answer. In 2016 was this an upgrade? Or was this the standard interior? Any idea how much it would have cost extra? Thank you all!

 

I believe Suede was a $1000 option. At least it was in 2015.

 

Yup, $1k option on my 2017 as well.

 

Nice thank you! You all like it? Any tips on cleaning?

 

Yes love it.

Clean with baby wipes and then a microfiber towel.

 

WISH I had it... Such nice grip on your butt, and don't have to worry about buttons on your jeans scratching the leather....

 

Thank you! Had buyers remorse since I wasnt very familiar with the suede and it looked similar to the stock option without leather -

It's certainly growing on me.
