Frost is a leather interior. You can only get a leather interior on the Touring model. I preordered my Z with the frost interior and Brickyard exterior. I think the combo will be dynamite. The frost leather was always my first choice for the interior.

It seems moronic to me that Nissan wouldn't allow leather on any of the other Z models. I can understand it on the base or even the Enthusiast models but the Performance or Track?!?! That is kinda ridiculous IMO.

How much of a weight difference could that make?
I'm not saying they should make it standard on the Track, but I would think it would be offered as an option. I'm kinda surprised it's not. I don't know about slipping and slidin' either. I've put a Z06 through some good manuvers and I never had a problem staying in one place and I personally think the Z's seats are a vastly better design than any Vette.

I agree with leather on other packages.
As for the whole, "You can't go fast with leather" arguement, that is purely opinion. I'm pretty sure the touring people won't be dissapointed. If leather was an option on the other packages it would be just that, optional. Which means you don't have to get it if you think it will drop your 0-60 times by 0.1 seconds. If weight is really that important, why don't you just drive around with 1/10 tank full. That will save some weight.

If you worked it out, the difference in 0-60 times due to the weight difference between cloth and leather would probably be more like 0.001 seconds (i.e. below the limits of measurability), since the weight increase is about 0.1% at most. In other words, it makes NO difference and it's kind of a silly argument.
What matters is if you like leather for its feel, grip, looks, maintenance, etc. And of course it would be better if it were an option, but Nissan has decided to offer only specific pre-configured models so that's what we have to choose from.
