    Default Cause it was ordered that way?

    it sounds like a basic 525i, i would guess you dont have wood trim either right?

    I was under the imspression that leather seats were standard in the us. I thought only european BMWs could be ordered with cloth seats and manual windows.

    Does it also have manual windows? I was looking to buy a 520 that had been imported to the US, it had cloth seats and power windows up front with crank in the rear.

    Maybe the leather was replaced by a PO.

    Alan_525i has the cloth interior in his 525. He knows a lot about the "why" behind it

    a standard 525i without premium package or option usually comes with leatherette. i think there might be a special option where you could order one with cloth seats. as thegeak has said, i'm sure alan will be able to tell you a lot more.
