Actually, technically, Alcantara IS leather. Go look at $300,000 super cars, they are completely decked out in Alcantara, so I dont see how this is "cheaped out"

Also that isnt a riced out boy racer body kit cosmetics, thats a windtunnel...aerodynamically tuned designed to increase down force and reduce drag. Supposedly the Nismo's styling is nearly as superbly aerodynamic as the GTR is.

SO hopefully you get rid of your Z soon and jump in a civic where your knowledge and mentality are more suited.
I don't think it comes from animal hide.

Still would much rather have actual suede or leather in my car (but I'm old skool).
