I would recommend trying Armor All Leather Wipes. I used them extensively on the Lemon leather in the 135. They will remove any streaks from jeans, even from black jeans which I wore quite often.

Not sure about 2012 models, but for 2011 the MSRP was $35,700 for the RWD variant and $37,700 for the AWD one. Wholesale price was $32,845 vs. 34,645, respectively so figure about a $2k real gap.
