The new steering wheel subaru has on the 2015 STI is simply sex. anyone know if we can put it in our cars? I dont really care about steering wheel controls as long as the airbag works.

Yeah, sex with a polygon-shaped troll... Ugh I hate the look of this wheel, sorry.

Love the steering wheel and Would also love to have those radio controls functional too.

No thank you.

Not that I dis-like flat botto steering wheels. I like em.

But I appreciate how minimal the interior is in the twins.
Granted taking your eyes off the road to mess with the radio is dangerous, But I like the sound of the engine mo betta anyway :D

Yeah, it will work. But its gonna cost you a lot of money and time spent making it work.

Yup I loves my Sti steering wheels:) ! I believe Cusco make similar one for our car without the buttons .

^^ That guy got it. The STi wheel may be bigger diameter wise... could cause some knee hitting issues. I may be wrong on that one part though.

But with the flat bottom how will you be able to steer with your knee while you're texting and drinking Starbucks?

I really wish Subaru gave these cars that steering wheel. I remember on a few prototypes they used a similar one to that and I was hoping that would be the final design.

The lack of steering wheel controls is incredibly frustrating. That would honestly be one of my main reasons why I'd trade my car in on a WRX...stupid as it sounds.

If the steering controls wouldn't work anyway, why not go with the alcantara Prova flat-bottom wheel:

Smaller diameter than your stock steering wheel, and it looks very comfy.

That's just a copy of the GTI steering wheel, and it's huge. After using the BRZ steering wheel, no thanks I like small diameter.

thunderlights 07-28-2014 07:00 PM

are the Cusco and prova steering wheels bigger than OEM?

I believe cusco is a little smaller in diameter. A member under @swift996 had one on his black BRZ ...
