They don't make them like they used to.

They can't. No one would buy them.

My '98 has the same basic interior as a car from the 60s. It's loud and sometimes smelly. Buttons have weird labels and are placed in random spots. The old Porsches were quirky cars. It's amazing they got away with it for so long. Buyers have changed and they don't want that kind of car anymore.

Porsche is in business to sell cars and people are softer and fatter and spoiled. They sell what people want. BMW has already admitted as much the same - they've progressively dumbed down the steering because customers complained that they wanted less steering effort and more isolation with less feedback.
