My friend has the GTI seats, there is no choice over here in Europe...
They look like my cloth seats... Just like in the pic above...
But the support from the side is slightly better in my cloth seats, but it could be that the leather seats are a little wider then mine...
They both sit great!!!
Good thing I got leather...
I love the European cloth seats, but in the US they are not sporty enough. I actually like the cloth better, but I did not order it because I wanted a sunroof, and you cannot have cloth and sunroof together.

None. The top one is Mark 6, the second one is Mark 5. Both are not available in North America.
We get this below in North America.

Your information is either outdated or wrong. According to the NA vw.com website the mk6 will be getting the new cloth seats.

Here is another picture.
Sample of what the new Mark 6 GTI plaid checkered will look like.
I really would like leather, but our cloth seats seem so much higher quality than other newer cars I've sat in... Plus its original. I wouldn't mind either one, I just want a sunroof lol
Aww man, we're not going to get the seats with the red stitching? That really sucks, because the red stitching really makes the interior pop.
I really want to upgrade from my Fit, and I was super excited about the Mk6 GTI, but the more I learn about the US version the more apprehensive I get. The seats are inferior to the European GTI, Xenons aren't standard, and the base price will be more than the Mk5 GTI. By the time I get the nice options on the MK6 it will probably approach 30k, and at that price there are a ton of other cars to consider.
Maybe I will just try to catch a good deal on a Mk5...
Lol thats true... Maybe put that money towards Votex? :23:
But your config for your GTI is EXACTLY what I would like to have out the gate. Sunroof and HID's are a must for me
