Steering wheel from Edition 1 - P97 DINAMICA Microfibre

So I really like the steering wheel from the P97 package.
Unfortunately the performance steering wheel on a non p97 is a combination of dinamica and Nappa leather...... NOT COOL.... Odd enough to be messing with the flat bottom when it comes around, but to have 2 different textures.. You really want to deal with 2 textures and a flat bottom at the track?

So, how do we order one with full dinamica short of just getting a P97?

You cannot order it from the factory. You would have to purchase it through a parts department. You will have a heart attack if you wanted that steering wheel.

JPMBenz is right on the money there.

Alternatively, a good pair of gloves will go a long way at the track.

As far as visual/further tactile references are concerned, all of the new W205 C63 AMG steering wheels have a 12 o'clock indicator band.

Yeah I always use gloves, but different ones between leather vs alcantara.
Actually I find the 12 o'clock indicator cool, but honestly unless it is totally subconscious with me, I'm never using it for any reference except when snapping the steering wheel back on in a hurry. But it does look a bit cool.

I had a feeling getting the wheel I would want could be a problem. I think the best option is the standard wheel then, not the combined material.

I personally like the 1/2 leather 1/2 alcantara. It's definitely different.
