I am looking at a new 2015 Accord Sport, but prefer the leather interior. The dealer told me that he could recover the seats in leather. Is this really a possibility? Would it look like a factory installation? Thanks.

 

At what cost? And, is it a re-upholstery or replacing the seats? A good upholstery shop can indeed do wonders, although I have not see a re-up that looks as tight as factory.

I understand you having a preference for leather and that is certainly your prerogative, however I'm having a difficult time imagining that a dealership would make such an offer, unless the customer is willing to come up with the extra cash.

It is possible for the dealership to replace the 17's on an EX (or EX-6 if you're wanting dual exhaust) with the same 18's that come on the Sport and likely at a lower cost than the addition or replacement of the upholstery in the LX Sport

I've a 2015 Accord Sport and the stock upholstery is very comfortable as is.

 

I've seen several cars with aftermarket leather, and so far at least, the ones I've seen have leather as good as, or better, than the factory stuff, and at less cost.
