That's your opinion. I hate busy interiors and I absolutely appreciate BMW for keeping all their interiors very streamlined and simple. I don't believe in having a busy-looking interior just because it's a 100k+ vehicle. Another annoyance I have is the passenger dash. I get that there's nothing you can really do but try to minimize the amount of dash is there. BMW and Mercedes do a good job at minimize that by having the trim extend horizontally so it's not just one huge piece of dash there (see: F30 3-Series, that, I think, is perfectly done).

Quality, sure Porsche might be up there making plastics shiny vs. BMW where it's dull plastic (and it makes a ton of difference) but I prefer most BMW interiors vs. it's competitors.

Like I said, that interior fits better in Porsche's smaller line up but I don't like it in the Cayenne.
