My '93 VR6 came with grey leather and carpets and I reckon the grey leather has worn remarkably well. The car is now on 72k and there is virtually no sign of wear. I've also had a G60 with similar miles and black leather and the grey definitely looks fresher. The carpets however are a different story as they show every little mark no matter how careful you are. I got the chance to buy a low mileage set of black carpets and put them in instead of the grey. I wasn't quite sure what to expect but I'm really impressed with how they look so they are staying. I also changed all the grey fasteners etc to complete the tranformation. The photos below were taken primarily to show the black carpet against the grey plastics but yoy can see how fresh the seats still look.

I actively hunted for a car with grey leather. Doesnt get as grubby as the beige and not as gloomy as the black.

 

Pics here if anyone is interested (not best but you get idea)

Nice. I've never seen grey recaros before and they work really well.

I have one in my VR6 - I like it - not as dark as black. I do think you need grey plastics though, and I have a pair of black mats instead of grey, as they hide the grey carpet a bit. Check out my link in the sig for pics.
