Nice!

odiesback · 11-03-2012, 11:31 AM

Sweet!
Great features. Don't know if I would be able to take advantage of it since I'm yet to red line my car at 4k miles.

Zebra99 · 11-03-2012, 11:34 AM

I think it's hideous, but functional. It's only purposes is for a race track.

remmib · 11-03-2012, 11:44 AM

+1 I much prefer the regular alcantara flat-bottom wheel w/ top dead center stripe.

BMW-RaceR · 11-03-2012, 11:59 AM

Anyone know how much difference the brakes makes on a track compared to stock?

Or how the M-performance suspension compares to the regular M-(sport) suspension (not adaptive)?

Frosty · 11-03-2012, 12:51 PM

neat features... I wonder if you can turn if off if not using it?

Yodaime · 11-03-2012, 01:22 PM

jonmaceng · 11-03-2012, 01:48 PM

UAM951 · 11-03-2012, 02:10 PM

StevenY. · 11-03-2012, 02:53 PM

I like it, it looks a bit funny but it's so useful.

Dan Parker · 11-03-2012, 03:11 PM

Needs a keyboard so we can email, SMS, and tweet while driving.

gmros · 11-03-2012, 03:12 PM

I love it, guys!

pittx52011 · 11-03-2012, 03:16 PM

It looks nice, only for track, big distraction on road.

mhabs · 11-03-2012, 04:11 PM

That would come in really handy with the manual transmission E9x M3s (which have no shift lights).

red-sauerkraut · 11-03-2012, 04:11 PM

Another great steering wheel BMW.

Now drop the price, and you might sell a bus load.

No need for shift lights in a manual tranny, just listen to the engine

The steering wheel is hideous and if you install it on anything other than a race car, you will look like an absolute idiot.
