A.KAHN introduces a new bespoke leather interior for the 451

Hi smart community, your comments would be nice . . .

We are just about to launch our new leather interior for the smart 451. It's available in any color with
a perforated quilt and contrasting stitch.




It's in plush Nappa Leather with K logo's in the headrest ( you can have your own logo if prefered though )
The top dashboard is in perforated quilt and the lower dashboard is in perforated Nappa.

Our door cards are perforated quilt with contrasting stitch to finish off this tidy interior.

The interiors will be available later this month from Smartmadness US.
Prices will follow soon. . .

Kind Regards

John K

Looks pretty good John! Could one get the panels in a matching thread stitch? The contrasting stitch reminds me of a football (American) for some reason.

You had me interested all the way up till you mentioned Smartmadness, will the parts be available directly from Kahn or another source in the US?

Thank you.
Leave it to someone from DC to mention a payment of some kind.

I didn't see an advertisement in John's post; I saw a new product that'll be available from a "Trusted paying Vendor".

Kinda like the 'fine Corinthian leather' from the days of yore~!
Or maybe he meant "Napa" as goat leather from the Napa Valley~!
Or as one guy on eBay advertises: S.Leather . . . simulated leather aka plastic or Naugahyde(tm)

Glad to see the quilted look is back in style; maybe they can do a set in the "tuck and roll" fashion also.
