My 05 325xi has leatherette and ~100k and still looks great, looks like its brand new.

My previous 06 330i had Dakota Leather and sold it with 65k and while the most of the interior was in great shape from not being used the driver seat had quiet a bit of wear.

My current 2009 328xi with real leather still looks great, but I take very good care of it and I am careful entering and exiting the vehicle just for this reason.

My moms 2011 X5 with leather has about 15k on it and her drivers side seat looks atrocious, and she is a very petite women.

I really like how the leatherette holds up, and if purchasing a new car I wouldnt let that sway my decision making. However if I was ordering a new car I would get the real leather just for the added option of the PP.
