Correct, and its not limited to the V6. Even the current I-4 Accord cant be had without leathers and alloys! The only trim its available in is the Vti-L, and the only variants are stick shift, Auto or V6. Accord Prices here

I had heard that too, but no problems whatsoever with the leather seats in my C Class. In fact, the Stanleys do not heat up at all even if it is parked right under the sun. I havent got darker tints installed yet (right now its plain glass), but these glasses will help cool the interior all the more.

Yes but almost all Indian car manufacturers detune their engines and lower compression ratios to accomodate the highly irregular fuel quality as also the lower octane levels available here.
