They invented rich, Corinthian leather?

A few years ago, I saw a program about some of the classic automobile advertising campaigns. They did a segment on the Chrysler Cordoba commercials with Ricardo Montalban extolling the virtues of "fine Corinthian leather." They interviewed one of the guys behind the ad campaign. He admitted that nobody had any idea what "fine Corinthian leather" was, or if such a thing even existed. They just thought it sounded impressive, so they used it in the commercial.
