This is the latest pic of the interior model.
The center console [where the tranmission is] was made out of a primitive box with a small number of segments. A couple of the faces have seperately extruded and beveled so that I can make base for the transmission stick and small compartment [where the 3 buttons are] can be made.
The transmission stick was made with two objects. A sphere with one end extruded to make the grip and a box that has been shaped by moving vertices to make the leather wrapping for the stick.
Five cylinders have also been added to serve as bases for the gauges in the DVC.
A meshsmooth modifier has been applied to the center console with the following settings:
Meshsmooth modifier > Parameters rollout > "Smothing Groups" checked
Meshsmooth modifier > Subdivision Amount rollout > Iterations: 0
This allows me to smooth out only the extruded and beveled areas without having to smooth out the rest of the center console.
The seats were then made wider because they seemed unrealistically narrow. So I used "Non-Uniform" scale to make them a little wider.
If you notice, the arms were moved closer together so that they can be lined up with the steering wheel [later to be added].
At this point, the entire human model [minus the clothes] has been collapsed to an "Editable Poly". Don't worry, I have backups.

Nice work you get there.
I've never really been a big fan of cars in FS, but this 911 looks pretty darn good.

I need a pic that shows the back of the interior very clearly. Without it, I'm stuck. I also need a pic that shows the visors.
I came up with an idea on how to make the transmission stick function.
I linked the stick to a series of hidden spheres. One sphere is then linked to another by priority.
Each sphere is named throttle0_01, throttle0_02, throttle0_03, and so on. Same throttle [since the *.air file is single-engine type] with different suffixes for distinction.
This is how each linked-sphere is key-framed and Tagged:
Throttle0_01 = 0-20
Throttle0_02 = 20-40
Throttle0_03 = 40-60
Throttle0_04 = 60-80
Throttle0_05 = 80-100
This will simulate the back and forth motion of gear-changing with a stick. However, one sphere is only animated to move forward and one backward and the next one forward and the next move backward and so on.
The leather that covers the stick is also animated as a throttle and it will move from Left to Right with its key frames set at 0-100. This part will then move from one side to another while the hidden spheres moves it back and forth.
Thus, simulating the entire visual action of gear-changing as you increase the throttle. However, I will then to figure out how to create the dynamic effects of gear-changing. I'll try out your idea, BMan.
I'll post pics of this setup so that you can get a clearer picture.
I have also added a Parking Brake lever and is tagged and animated as a parking brake.
I have then added a seat belt to the drive. Everyone needs to drive safe these days.

sounds cool! though you could make the seat belt the tailhook, so people can drive without it!
