AMG Steering wheel on eBay

I really, really really want this, but I want other things a little more. This will have to wait. I thought I'd show it to you guys. Maybe someone will pick it up.

Thanks Derspeed

i like this one better than the one in the performance products catalog I posted a while back. I think I'm going to buy this one, I'm just waiting on a response from the seller. Good find!

If there is a way to connect those paddle shifters to the +/- on the stick, it would totally be worth the $600

Cool. Please take pics of the installation. I am going to get one later. I really like the smaller diameter (at least it looks smaller) and the flat bottom. The one in the Performance Parts catalog is just a re-skinned C Class wheel. I think this one is an original, or good replica of the C63 wheel. At that price, I doubt it is OE.

You could always pretend you're shifting with the paddles. Isn't that what an auto/manual transmission does...let you pretend you're shifting?

I'm just joking.

I would be wondering the same thing. "AMGTestDriverNJ" let us know when you get a response from the seller.

Thanks!

He responded

you get nothing but what you see in the auction. I called the dealership and they said if I switched it for this wheel the warranty would be voided and also that I would have a difficult time acquiring a cover w/ airbag set for the C63 until it become a bit more widespread. I'm starting to like the performance parts one again haha. Anyway, I found out through a friend that if you are not concerned with the warranty issue, that these paddles will indeed work with some minor wire re-routing. That sold me right there but I'm nervous I won't be able to find the cover/airbag combo for a bit....ugh this is a tough 1
