At risk of taking this thread further off-topic, let me just say that we really do like our NX so I wouldn't want to suggest we aren't happy with it. We got 35 MPG with one tank but average more like 32. It is a good size for the two of us and easy to navigate in traffic. It registered about 3db quieter than the Acura RDX on our simple phone sound meter on the same stretch of highway so while it can't compete with the RX, it is competitive in its class. But back to topic although perhaps in the wrong forum, if one wants leather in an NX, it is likely to carry an MSRP near 50k or even higher if shopping for a hybrid. For the record, the Acura came with leather and I believe that was standard. The RDX was a bit taller and came with more standard features including the safety features you mentioned and a V6, but it was noisier, taller and the appearance is very plain.
