Don't buy one off ebay that's like $50 if you really want one. Though, I wouldn't recommend a quick release unless race car. Major brands like NRG and Works Bell use ball bearings to lock it in place so I doubt the wheel would randomly loosen off in the middle of driving. I'm not sure how much the Works Bell one weighs, but the NRG one is pretty heavy and extends the extra weight past the steering column which might be a con for some people.

Personally, I like the look of the Sparco quick release and how it uses teeth to mesh instead of bearings. I don't really see how many times you'll be using the quick release in a street car though unless you're a bigger guy that can't fit in the car without moving the steering wheel away (shouldn't be a problem in newer cars due to the adjustability they offer).
