Good point by Eslai, get the sports steering wheel. Something I overlooked but wish I had.

...and yet another consideration. Dependent on what color you go with the option to get the roll bar in the exterior color can be very cool.

Sport Steering Wheel is option code #435. Cost $250. Got one...love it!

This is a 3 spoke steering wheel with a smaller diameter and contoured rim.

Agree. Initially it wasn't on my list but the car I got (from the lot) had it and I really like it. Good bang for $ option.

yeah I'm pretty pissed I don't have the sport steering wheel. the reason I don't have it is because it wasn't on the interior options section of the porsche configurator online. It was listed in the LEATHER OPTIONS section that I completely ignored.

Had I seen it I would've ordered it. Bastards.

Now if I want it it costs like $1000+ because of the airbag module.

From option code #435!!

The SSW has a round center. The standard wheel has a triagular center without thumb notches.
