Is this an "AMG Package" Steering wheel?

Was browsing around E550's and this car indicated it has the AMG Package. Is this steering wheel part of the package or is it from another E Class?

What year are you looking at? That looks standard.

Sorry its a 2011. Just wondering if the steering wheel had been changed from the car. Does this steering wheel have the heated function?

Thanks for the pic. There was so many different styles on the internet, i didnt know which one was which. I had hoped it was maybe a flat bottom steering wheel.

Too many german broads
This was also a standard wheel on the 2010 E63 - one of the ugliest steering wheels ever

That's the standard steering wheel... both our 2011 E350 and E550 with AMG package have that wheel. I think the flat bottom wheels came later. Some had wood, depends on if the wheel was heated or not as well.

Does this standard wheel come with the heated option? Not sure if theres a different wheel if there is the option available.

This one claims to be heated. Is the perforated section the heated section? Not a clue.

Here is a video for upgrading W212 pre-facelift to an AMG Steering wheel. At least worth looking at to see what the "AMG steering wheel" looks like

Flat bottom wheel is a winner.

Heated steering wheel is an option, VIN check should list code 443.

That mod makes the cars interior alot better. Too bad that wheel costs so much. Now it makes the wheel i posted so basic.

Agree with KEY. I have the flat bottom in my E550. Makes such a difference.

Not a hard question guys. 4 Spoke is luxury steering wheel and 3 spoke are sport.

Yes, my W212 Avantgarde came with that steering wheel. I later upgraded it to a AMG 3 spoke wheel both of top and bottom were flat .

My '13 with the AMG package, could have ordered the wood inserts if I would give up the heated wheel option.
