Neat way
Untidy way.
Whatever saves you weight!
Loading my car up for holiday with no bootlifters trying to lift a 15kg suitcase with one arm was a git i tell you!

why not buy a rocket and a wheelbarrow if you want power to weight ratio to improve?

i love you guys 
i would do it, but only if it were a 2nd car and i'd modded engine/performance to begin with
doesn't it feel like your driving half a car?
i had no door card one day (window was being fixed) and it felt like i was in the cargo area of a ferry.

Not at all - very driveable and you never have anyone in the back

I had the plastic sill covers of in my car all last week while I was putting some new wiring in for my ICE. Whenever I drove it it felt like something wasn't right, felt so bare and somehow less comfortable so cant imagine what it would be like with the whole interior stripped!

i aggree with jr tidy is right way, if some1 on here post pic of bodged bodykit all u lot would say ay thats bodged
personally stripping is wicked with cage etc i like it but i think its become more of competition than ppl actually wanting to do it, if truth was known, cause ppl will try and tell me wim wrong
only broster and jr were really first to go for it from what i saw anyways and suddenly every1 has done same anyways
i driven my car with no interior whatsoever when it got trimmed and it was shit, stupidly rattling/banging/noisy and just not good for normal car to drive, but each to there own

It depends what you want your car for, if its for pure power, performance, and handling then strip it. Its a performance increase for nothing.

Get some fibreglass wings and cut the spare wheel well out and replace it with a sheet of aluminium or HIPS.
