    Is it just me or does the leather in Honda's not wear very well? Most used Euros I have seen have creased and almost cracking leather.

    The body looks in good nick though.

    I wonder if this has something to do with the leather being incorporated with PVC vinyl? Does anyone know what is the percentage of leather actually used in Honda's leather seats?

    The leather is just coated leather. Not the proper quality leather like the one used in Lexus and Mercedes.

    Yes, just visually there appears to be a difference. There must also be quite a different feel as well.

    The CL9 leather is not that supple from new but the creased look is intended. It is called "ruched" leather and is seen in other cars as well. It responds quite well to a little regular TLC.

    The P leather in the new CL2 looks better IMO but I don't now if it is actually better quality.

    I actually had a better look at the CU2 leather today. It looks better than I first thought. I wasn't too interested in it when I test drove the Lux, as I knew I'd be going for a base model.

    As for the cracking CL9 leather, I wonder how many of these owners took care of their interior properly and stopped the leather from drying out?

    The side part where the air bag is is usually PVC and not leather.

    I'm a big believer in leaving dynamics alone. Unless you're going for an all out modified setup. After all, Honda spent millions developing the car. Still, great buy!

    I pick mine up out of storage tomorrow! I think I'll be driving the streets of Sydney non stop for about 3 days, I've spent 9 out of the past 12 months unable to drive.
