I think what he is trying to say is that when you buy or lease a BMW, you are paying for more than a run of the mill car, (from a quality point of view), or are you?

What does he want them to do? Improve the quality of materials to that of not only looking better than the materials in a Honda Civic, but actually being better so that they will still look good years from now. Otherwise, what is already a very expensive vehicle becomes even more expensive from a depreciation perspective as who wants to buy a used BMW with the trim wearing off after 3 years? What would it look like in 5 - 7 years?

Good point;

I often wonder what kind of abuse drivers put their vehicles
thru all the while expecting that nothing will come of it.....

Sometimes a close inspection of the pictures posted reveals
how vehicles are cared for and can explain a lot......

I would think most people would prefer the
smell of leather.

No different that the airplanes you use to travel...all built by the lowest bidder.
