not totaly sure but i think so... its the same material that ALL oem automotive manufactures use in there highend cars ie.911, AMG, M5 ect...
LOVING teh alcantara. i believe alcantara is basically a synthetic suede. feels awesome. my tC came with full alcantara interior. very comfortable. now brush that headliner! lol.

hrm no M5 or AMG, i know came with alcantra cwm13.gif they are all leather...
but M3 CSL did wink.gif

either way the seats look very nice....but don't you think it will be too bright and need a lil contrast?
i plan on tinting the windows also... im sure that will tone all the red down a bit... but all in all, red on red on red is the master plan!!! why so much red??? 1: i love the color (obviously) 2: red has never been taken this far with a 6g celica (or any other celica for that matter), 3: is going to be a serous "jaw droper" on the streets!!!

any ways, we fixed that stupid center channel speaker, i yanked it off the dash and we mounted it to the headliner... it looks right at home there to me... what do you think???
