Looking at the options available, and test driving an XR6 with the optional sports steering wheel, I was quite impressed with this wheel. I have placed an order for my XR6T with this option.

I was wondering what other people thought..

If the sports steering wheel is better or the Momo as an option.

It also seems to be difficult to find any information on these steering wheels, and a pic of the sports steering wheel seems to be impossible to find....

I quite like the standard XR steering wheel. What is the difference between that and the sports one?

The sports wheel is slightly smaller and thicker. It has a more moulded grip and feels great.

I drove the standard wheel and found it to be fine so for $695, I'll leave it at that.

Personally, I'd take the sports wheel over the momo if I had to.

I prefer the sports wheel over the Momo also, but the standard one is also quite good! Here is the sports wheel.. just love it!!

Yeah, I drove with the standard wheel and liked it enough not to mess with it either. Certainly not for $700!

I'm with the majority - the sports steering wheel was just fine and it was also a reasonable size. For $700 I'd be looking at putting towards something else, like side airbags.

I'm with Superoo, Mr sparkle, edge, and Djelibeybi I kept my $700.00.

not worth that kinda money, perhaps for $200 I would have gone for it, especially given they dont throw your old one away......I'm sure they get to send em back for credit at the factory.

Same here I dont see the justification for something that in my opinion doesnt look that much better or different then the normal one

I prefer the Sports Leather Steering Wheel myself. Nice and thick, chunky. Love it.

The extra money on the wheel is worth it. It's your link to the car. It's gotta feel good for the rest of the car to feel good I reckon.

Well, that's my 2c anyway

Thanks for the pic MrSparkle. Just what I needed to remind me why I wanted to spend $700 on a wheel. I just couldn't remember. I could remember that it felt great, but couldn't remember the look...

I will order one of these. It will cost $3 a month on the lease payment for something that I will get to use and see everyday. Looks great and feels great. So I will join ExAreSix and buy one of these, if anything just to be a little different (and the chrome will match nicely with the manual gear shift)..
