It's real wood veneer, but it's got a urethane coating over it that
makes it look plastic and phony. It's a common dilemma - varnish would
look better, but won't last; urethane lasts, but looks fake. Most car
makers go with the latter so they don't have people complaining about
their wood fading, peeling, and cracking.
