Recaros , momo = cheap? Maybe if the dash was covered in walnut with an lcd showing the dual climate controls youd like it? 
Stop starring at the dash and watch the road and listen to the turbo spool!!

You know what, if you're going to buy the car, don't complain about it. You act as though someone forced you into buying a 35K car with cheap looking interior.

When Mitsubishi designed a 35k vehicle, they seemed to concentrate on everything accept the 'little things' like the dash. Most $35k cars have an interior that feels like money well spent, but the EVO seems to lack in this area. I feel like I'm looking at the dash of a Kia. Does anyone know of any manufacturers that produce interior upgrades to add that special "yes" to the dash. I already know of the double din mod, but what else, if anything at all is out there?

if only it had better a/c (especially with a dark interior), radio, and cruise control... that would have made it just a little bit better to me... otherwise, its pretty good to me!

You have to accept certain things about this car.......
I think of it as a $20k powertrain on a $15k car.........
It's the whole trade off thing. For you, it seems like you should look into a BMW, Audi, or even a VW for "finer" interior materials.........
Or, like the rest of us who love our evos for what they actually are........
you can just suck it up...........Nancy.

Not everybody likes the interior materials in the Evo and that's why ALOT of people make changes to their interiors. If you don't have to accept the stock performance of the car, I don't have to accept the interior of the car...The older you get, the more you appreciate a comfortable interior in a car... especially for a DD. People mod their evos in all sorts of ways because it suits their personal taste. We don't all have to look at the car as a $20k powertrain on a 15k car. I look it as a $35k package, and as a starting point. Everyone mods the performance and the looks of their car to get what they want out of it so why say we have to accept it the way it is. Unless you'r Evo is 100% stock your guilty of the same thing. There's nothing wrong with blessing your evo with a nice interior... It's not blasphemy... I stand by my statement.

, that isn't very cool and it's kind rough to the ears.It would had been better if you would just ask us, what kind of modification have we done to our interior (dash, stereo and so on), because you want to make your interior more eye catchy.
You'll probably get more help and get to know how friendly and helpful we are if you would just to apologize or just restate your opening post.

besides anybody who complains about the cheap interior of the evo would realize that they cannot afford it if mitsubishi turn it around and make it luxurious at the same time -so quit complaining

I think you got everyone off on the wrong foot. A lot of us in here work hard just own an Evo. But you coming out and saying that part of it sucks , that isn't very cool and it's kind rough to the ears.
It would had been better if you would just ask us, what kind of modification have we done to our interior (dash, stereo and so on), because you want to make your interior more eye catchy.

I simply agreed with the OP and gave him advice on what I did to make my Evo interior nicer. So then I was called out like I should accept the evo interior the way it is... or go get a bmw.... read the whole thread. I know some people on here are very helpful and friendly, and I try to help others here with advice too but I don't appreciate it when people on here talk trash and try to impose their opinions on others. That's it.

Its your car do what you want with it. If you want a completely stock evo with a ballin interior go for it. If you want stripped down race car then do that. That is the beauty of it

Who evens thinks about a interior in a evo?
When u are banging through the gears spiking at 19-20 psi while hitting a 90 degree turn at 60+ mph who gives a flying funk if the interior plastic looks cheap?????

I don't know...I happen to like my interior. I have leather, plush door pieces, and a sunroof. Yeah it's an SSL but it's still raw in nature. No cruise control, no power seats, and no navigation system. I like my interior but it's also very borderline. If I just had a standard 03-04 evo 8 then I would get very bored, very quickly.
