I owned my 2017 M3 with SS for over 5 years now, and with two kids (5 year old and 2 year old). I drive them daily to preschool every day and they eat and drink in the car. The leather is completely clean and almost like new. Whenever it's dirty I just wipe it with a wet microfiber towel and it comes right off. Maintenance is no different than black leather, and in a way SS leather is cleaner because whenever it's dirty you'd notice it right away and clean it. Whereas with black leather you'd never notice it's dirty so it's not cleaned, and even though it doesn't look dirty, it actually is.

The next production allocation avail is aug/seo 19 and car to touch down nov/dec 19. Another option would be to get the non comp M5 with limited exterior colors and the avail interior colors are aragon brown and silverstone which i am not really interested in getting a non comp m5.

Should I wait for the aug/sep 19 production and get an interior color which is black but boring to me but durable or the silverstone which i do like but not hold out in the long term?

Tough decision and the wait is pretty darn long and i hate waiting!
Do not wear brand new jeans ans clean the seats with soap containing glycerin (Marseille soap). On top it is a very good natu protection.

Just get them deep cleaned and ceramic coated. No issues or staining concerns after that

No issues if you take care of them with the appropriate products (ColorLock in my case).
