Nope, it's cheapness. It would cost a lot more money to use real leather everywhere. Check out a Mercedes-Benz, they use real leather. When I got my 98 Z-28 with the "leather", I was very pissed off when I found all of the vinyl. I vowed never again and my 02 SS factory order had cloth and I now have a 1SS. The leather surfaces on the driver's seat of my Z-28 looked like crap after 28,000 miles, the cloth in my 02SS looked fine at 60,000 miles.
