at the risk of getting torn asunder, why don't subaru amd mitso save the money they spend on the engine upgrades and do something about the crap interior.

Cos you buy these cars for the real world performance at a good price primarily, and don't want to pay extra for a more expensive interior.

Performance is king. Don't want my money used on the interior. Want it to make me go faster

That's how I see it anyhow.

hey leave my sumptuous cream interior alone.

I love the power of the subaru and evo but It would be nice to get a nice interior, it doesn't have to be leather and all electric but surely it shouldn't rattle like a baby errrrr rattle (damn couldn't think of anything else that rattles)

nothing wrong with newage interiors IMO. On par with Japanese interiors generally, and perfectly functional. Certainly seem better than US interiors.

Sure, you're not getting the build quality of BMW, but they are still mostly plastic and plain, just with a few more screws.
