Not bothers at all. I actually like it quite a lot. Clean looking and just the right size.

You could compare it to a Porsche 911.

It looks pretty good imo. I thought it was perfect size because it felt good in the hands and was completely functional.

Looks nothing like the Mustang wheel, and it's leather wrapped. What's there to complain about?

I kinda see what you mean, bro. I, personally, don't care for the silver accent on the bottom of the steering wheel, but that's just me being a picky motherf****r. lol

Agreed.

I think if you talk to the interior designer; he will tell you it is made to resemble the top half of a connecting rod.

That being said, I love the size and texture of the wheel AND the fact that it doesn't have any buttons other than the horn. :happyanim:

Here's a shot of the newer (2011+) Mustang's (premium trim) steering wheel:

That's the Boss 302's wheel.

Looks a lot better than the first wheel OP used IMO, which looks like the base wheel for the 2005-2009 generation (correct me if I'm wrong).

Wow, that Mustang steering wheel looks like crap! :lol:

I like the FR-S/BRZ steering wheel but I wish it had the horn buttons within thumb reach and it weren't as long/thick towards the middle (hard to explain).

The stock handle should be replaced anyways, with a Nardi classic.
