Default Let's talk interiors

Longtime owners, how are they holding up?
I know the GTO interiors are supposed to be miles above most GM products but I'd like to get some opinions on how they wear

How does the leather hold up?
Any cheap parts on radio etc. that break commonly?

How does the general fit and finish hold up over time?

I have an 06 with 22k on it and the drivers seat beading is showing some wear from my hip when I get in and out of the car. Other than that, I try and put some Meguiar's leather conditioner on the seats ever few months, no other issues.

I have the Rear seat issue, and the steering wheel spoke issue. The carpet clips are junk, and I have worn the finish off the shift knob.

Clips are cheap, seats and spokes are covered under warranty, and I enjoyed every minute of wearing the finish off the shift knob.

76k miles here and no noticeable issues. I've had both doors apart (speakers), the top of the dash apart (tweeters), the center console apart 3 or 4 times (SAT radio, shifter, etc), and the rear seat out several times for various reasons. Everything goes back together nicely and haven't had any new rattles since I bought the car 20k miles ago.
