People put it in road cars for the look, heritage, and tribute to racing.
I like it on my steering wheel because it feels nice and I like the extra grip on the track, especially when I wear gloves. I wish it was on my side bolsters so I could get some more grip.

I don't think it looks "cheap" at all. Who cares how much it costs or if it's natural? It's functional.
