Well, it was technically used. I got it with ~2400 miles. It was "owned" by one of the dealership managers and then they were using it as the showroom display model at the time I bought it.

I wasn't too surprised about it. A lot of detailers like to make everything in the interior super shiny...although they did go overboard when they slathered the steering wheel with it. It's not a big deal, it didn't hurt the car or anything...I just wiped it off.

FWIW I've been back there a few times and their other showroom cars (new and used) are "au natural" inside. So my car was probably just a weird fluke.
