I would do whichever one looks the most worn first I guess. If they are even I'd do exterior first but that's just because to me a little wear on the inside doesn't bother me as much.
Interior, get interior done first. There is still a good amount of nice interior pieces out there for stock replacements if you hit the sale section on here. But how much longer will that last? You can always take care of exterior stuff. I have a feeling over the next few years finding stock interior pieces that are in mint condition is gonna become a needle in a haystack event. I could be wrong but these cars are getting old & there arent any companies making new interior panels as replacements.
What exactly are your goals for the exterior/interior? I know you used the term "restore", but do you intend on literally restoring it? Or upgrading it? In other words, stock parts? Or aftermarket?
Interior first. You want to be comfortable in your car. Paint is expensive, vinyl and carpet is cheap. After you get the interior done, get the car professionally detailed to hold you until you can afford paint/body work.
Interior first...mint or sometimes even "very good" condition parts arent just the easiest thing to find and as years go by they will get harder. Exterior second because paint will always be around. LOL
Godfather thought he was talking about exhaust lol, i would do ext first, you should really post a pic of ext and int to get better feedback,you would be shocked what a great detailer can do in and out of your ride
