GT2 Leather or not?

[The Sting]

Does anyone know what is truly leather in the GT2 (e.g., dashboard, door panels, center console, steering wheel, etc.)? I understand the seats are Nappa leather. Does this include the side bolsters?

I want to use a leather conditioner and Dr. Beasley's Leather Lock on the appropriate surfaces. Thanks for your help!

Nope, and I am interested in the answers you might receive; thus my post to get updates. I'll wait ...

I have the red nappa leather and I have been using leather conditioner on all red surfaces which is basically the seats and the door trim.

I asked this question when I bought my Stinger and on the Limited, was told that the seating surface (butt and back) was actual nappa leather, but the side bolsters (thighs and back) were leatherette. Same goes for the back seat.

Ah, now I see what went by me before: "And every Stinger model -- even the entry Stinger 2.0T starting at under $32,000 -- comes with rich leather trim as standard. GT versions are available with ultrasoft Nappa leather that's been treated and processed for comfort and feel." (That's from the promo book, page 19.) So, same dimensions (amount) of leather and leatherette. Just different quality. The sales brochure says: "NAPPA LEATHER covers the deeply contoured seats in supple, premium luxury." (with a note, "Optional feature available only on certain trims") So, the promo book and brochure give a different impression. "Covers" sounds like entirely covered in leather. While "leather trim" definitely is not "covered" in any sense of the word. But the promo book does not distinguish between the GT 3.3TT "leather trim" and Nappa leather trim other than that the Nappa is more luxurious. It was only on this forum that I first heard that only the butt and back portions of the seats are real leather. And I see no reason to question that.

Thanks to all for the information. Definitely helpful and much appreciated!

In Houston, TX I went to Stitches that does custom leather work. They are going to embroider the GT on my red nappa leather head with black stitching. Saw it in another GT looks great. Stitches use Lexol leather conditioner on all their leather seats, steering wheel etc.

There's an interior place down the street from me and they use the same stuff..they also have a blue bottle I use on the mustang's vinyl top which cleans and conditions it.
