Default Leather into 3rd gen GS

Hi guys. I have some doubts about leather used into 3rd gen. As far I know after first list (2008+) lexus change seats leather to semi aniline which are more plushy. I also notice leather into door panels is pretty hard, I think its not a fake leather but shy it's so hard in touch and have not any plushines ? Do you know if it's becouse diffrent type of leather used here ?
Also I read about poor white leather quality, did you notiice diffrent leather quality used for other colors ?

They both feel the same to me, had an 06 and now 08....I don't feel any difference in the seats or door panels.

I don't think that there were any changes made to the leather from 06-11.
