Yes you would have to get the leather. But i'm pretty sure some of these pple will trade you their suade interior for your leather.

there is no leather on the seats unless you get the SSL package then all the seats are leather. most people like the non-leather seats more from my experience.

The center seating surfaces really aren't suede. Suede is leather. It's actually Alcantara® – a very durable and stain resistant fabric with a texture that's very similar to suede.

If you get the SSL package; you get leather seats. That package is $3200 total. I had a dealer tell me it's only a $2k option, with $1200 worth of markup. What you can do is not get it, and get a sunroof aftermarket, but I'd be hesitant with people cutting into my new car! G/L.

If not, you get all black Alcantra - just like the STi has, (but not the gay light blue).
