BMW Performance Steering Wheel video

I found this on youtube today, it shows the lights on the wheel in action.

Awesome find. Love the rev lights to the sides of the central display....sort of would make you feel like you are in an F1 car.

Does anyone know how much this costs?

Probably much more than any reasonable person could justify spending for a few lights on a steering wheel.

I like it, a lot, but I can't help thinking that you might as well just hang a "steal me" sign in your window, while you install that.

Removing a BMW steering wheel takes a couple minutes, once you know how to undo the airbag catches on the back side of the steering wheel.

Maybe for a track dedicated car... or Darth Vader's ride.

I personally think it is ugly, aside from it being suede. Give me the M3 CSL suede one over this anyday.
