Given it's on the Toyota Website and there are already a few threads on here about it I'd say it's legit.
As for the leather - I never pay for upgraded leather from factory. Unless you're looking at high end vehicles it's almost always fake/synthetic and isn't as tough as proper Full-grain or Top-grain leather. In most cases, it actually works out cheaper to have an upholstery joint refit the car with leather you buy wholesale. It can take a bit of mucking around, but once you know where to look it's easy as. I ordered a few Full-Grain skins for the Subaru, turned up in about a week. Upholstery shop had it for about 4 days and it came back looking amazing. Felt like the Lambo gallardo that was at the auto show (was the inital motivation). All up cost $3500 skins and all. Consider it if all you want is leather as you get a much tougher and easier to clean product.
