Default Leather interior question on '06

What other parts of the interior are leather besides the seats and steering wheel? I have a feeling that the center rest, doors, and dash are vinyl.

Is there a difference between a car that is advertised "leather interior" and a car that is advertised "leather seats?"

My Cadillac had leather everywhere.

Only the seats and steering wheel are leather in the 06-07 Montes. Everything else is just as you guessed, vinyl. Cadillac is considered a premium brand vehicle so yes it probably did have leather everywhere. I think manufacturers advertise any way they want. I.E. leather interior or leather seats. Anyway they can attract people like moths to flames. LOL

I can't say if Cadillacs are like this but almost any car with leather seats has vinyl sides to it. I know my '06 Monte is like this and more the mopars my parents have owned with leather seats have been like this.

I thought it cheap of Chevy to make the door panels in the '06 Montes (and probably the '07s) hard plastic. They kind of feel like they have a overing over top of them but it's hard to tell without damaging the door panel to find out.

Thanks for the answers. Yeah, my Cadillac had leather on the dash, arm rests & door panels.
