    Chris I really dug that pic of the 365 wheel that you posted the nicest cleanest example I've seen so far.

    However I cannot agree that the propeller wheel is hideous. I actually like it. It's something I can imagine steering the Zeppelin with. I'd like you to reconsider the classical features of the wheel? C'mon it will grow on you.

    Peace.

    Thanks, I'll see if I can find some more shots. Sorry, I wasn't clear about the propeller wheel, I think that is one of the absolute best modern steering wheels out, love it. Due to US regulations the wheel that comes on the car is required to have an airbag, I attached a pic of the hideous wheel.

    I think that Chris means that the new Gallardo steering wheel is hideous. He loves the propeller steering wheel. I'm with him.

    Oops, our posts crossed. I see that you don't like the Lotus steering wheel (no airbag).

    Yeah, I've never seen the Gallardo, it's not too bad, but I can't stand the lotus one, neither are close to the propeller though.

    Yup I see what you mean......That is not attractive. My apologies for doubting your obvious superior taste in the propeller wheel.

    I have forgotten to post some of my own wheels, so here is a few. Lets also see some interiors with wheels.

    Chris you have captured the pure essence of the Ferrari wheel, great shots digging the jewels behind the wheels.

    Glassman another great wheel. Keep em coming.

    Jim, you shouldn't be allowed to post pictures here. They cause too much jealousy!!! :)
    You have some great looking cars.

    Looks good Gio.... but not sure about any sudden opposite lock maneuvers in that baby as the family jewels could be at risk!!!!!

    Nice watch and wheel CD.

    I really liked the grip on this wheel. An Ariel Atom (absolute rocket-ship) that I tried recently. Seats were surprisingly comfortable. I think I'm gunna have to have one of these babies soon just for track day.
