I’ve had my M340 for 4 plus months and mine hasn’t shown any sign of dye rubbing onto leather, nor showing any dirt so far.
I’ve worn black jeans, blue jeans and navy cottons in the car. |

I only ask because I sat inside an S-Class coupe with an interior very similar in color to that of the 3 series' cognac interior and I noticed that the color from peoples jeans transferred onto the leather. I love how the cognac looks but have been skeptical of how well it holds up.

So the cognac should probably be fine in terms of stain. |

Iīve had it on my 330i M Sport for 7 months of daily use, and there are absolutely no signs of wear. I clean and condition it every 2/3 weeks, with specific products. Granted, mine has Ceramic Pro leather protection, so it makes it even easier to clean and harder to stain

Tartufo is Merino leather, I assume, so itīs almost (if not completely) all-natural leather in its composition, while Cognac, which is Vernasca leather, has a more synthetic components in the blend, so it is in theory more durable than Tartufo.

Has anyone with the Cognac interior opted for the Cilajet treatment? This is my first time with a light interior, so I thought it might help prevent long-term damage from spills, jeans, pen marks, etc. But I'm getting concerned after reading some negative reviews. Thoughts about using it on the exterior (of a brand new Skyscraper gray) would also be appreciated. Thank you!

I've had Cognac leather in my X7 for 5 years now and it's in great condition, no wear whatsoever. And that's with a large family going in/out multiple times a day to school, sports, etc. It's picked up a bit of patina, ever so slightly darker, but I could probably remove that with some leather cleaner and some elbow grease.
