In 2001, I buy an Opel Astra Linea Blue special edition with *real* or true alcantara (it's a registered trade brand). I sold it to my brother, he keeps the car for more than six or seven years (about 160000 km) and alcantara was still fine. Alcantara does not peal off but it is very sensitive to oil and grease.

I really enjoy leather and alcantara seats. I even prefer this combination because seats have better grip.
