As out-of-fashion as this is probably going to sound, I buy my cars to suit me, not to impress other people.

The problem with cheap, hard plastic is that it's prone to squeaks and rattles. Especially over time being in the elements of expanding and contracting.
The soft touch stuff is nice to touch, but really, it to eliminate squeaks and rattles. I had a 2000 Prelude with soft touch materials in the entire interior. I bought it new in December of 1999 and sold it in May of 2010 with 225,000 miles and it STILL did not ever squeak or rattle once. Ever. Solid as a bank vault.
