I can't explain it any more simple than that.
A glorified civic... With what, Better engine, Better chassis, Better styling...

That's far from a civic if you think about it... Although they are in the same class, So are many other cars.

There is a reason why the RSX-S came with leather, It's a sport type feature.

Of all the issues confronting the world today... why argue over the internet about the merits of a leather interior?

Honestly, who gives a damn?

Better chassis and better styling are subjective. Ask a real race car driver what kind of seat they'd rather use: leather or non-leather. I guarantee none of them choose leather.

Ehhh.... Ok... My closing arguement.

I suppose leather come's down to personal preferance... I personally believe a luxury car is by the design of the seats, I know for my 90 GS... It has adjustable side bolsters that'll squeeze you and extend to hold you firmly in turns.

I think for that, And as mine is also leather wrapped make's it sporty and not as luxury, I have also owned a porsche and a cadillac, The porsche seat's were almost identical as they were meant to hold you in place and my cadillac was more for you to sink and stay for hours without a numb ass.

Personal preferance... You can go ahead and think its a wannabe luxury car where i look at it as a sport feature.

G2 makes a good cheap daily, end of story.

Not luxurious or sporty.

Leather was optional on all GS'... Not standard though...

I've own(ed) 2 G2 Sedan's... Both were black with black leather interior.

Both were GS's aswell... 1 was 1991 and the other is 1990...
