I didn't think it was that bad but I only had a short stint in your MK8. The MK7/7.5 admittedly took a few drives for me to get annoyed with the interior quality. If MK8 is cost cut compared to MK7 which is already shit, this must be really shitty.

Is this a thing? I drove a E chassis X3 35i and it was so much shittier than the 535i that I normally drive. The interior materials are so much worse than the 5er. I also really didn't like the seating position or pedal placement, but I guess that comes with driving a SUV. I think having experienced a 5er, it's ruined me for baseline expectations. F10 5er interior is pretty close to the E36 interior (lux package), which I guess really is a testament to how good the E36 is.
