How can BMW use such a boring interior on the 3er models?. And why didn´t they change almost anything about it for the M3?. Can´t stand this.

But even with my critics, every comparision i read about M3 vs C63 AMG vs RS4 or vs ISF, M3´s interior is always the best.

It´s a bit confusing.

Some might just like to keep things simple? Why over do it?

Cause when you see C63 AMG interior you say WOW!!.

I dont, sure the interior is nice but it doesnt make me saying WOW!!.
M3 interior may look simple but the layout is clean, ergonomic and with high quality materials. Only complaint I have is that the interior should be driver oriented.

fixed

Oh come on, you all should admidt that during last years BMW hasn´t done very well with its interior design.

Really? What is it that's so wrong with BMW interiors?
Only bimmer interiors I dont like is the X3, previous 7-serie and perhaps the Z4. (With that said I dont think they are crap but I dont like the layout.)

Simplicity is relaxing. For me anyhow...
