Performance steering wheel with orange stitching (incl picture)

marcel b · 09-03-2011, 02:50 AM

I finally got a picture of my BMW Performance steering wheel with orange stitching and orange piece of leather (instead of yellow). The orange is identical to the orange of the stitching in the 1M. Of course it will be installed with the alcantara center cap.
I think it looks amazing

and it will look great in my 1M

BMW should have put this in from the factory.

Opinions?

If anybody is interested to buy it from the shop I bought it from please give me a PN so I can provide you the contact data. (I am not related to this shop or the owner in anyway, I just know that some people are very interested in this) The price for the wheel and the changes is 599 EURO. The alcantara center cap is optional.

Nice looking real good.

Alcantara feels nice in you're hands gives some extra fun.

How much for just the wheel? (not a fan of more alcantara)

bdaddylo · 09-03-2011, 04:35 PM

Group buy?

The shop took the picture just before sending it to me. It is on the way now by post. I have asked if they have made more pictures. Will come back to that.

Romo · 09-04-2011, 03:32 AM

Marcel, thanks again!

Sent the firm a email, see what will happen..........

marcel b · 09-04-2011, 03:40 AM

As the picture I have is a high resolution one, here some of the details

Romo · 09-04-2011, 04:32 AM

Here a picture of the standard performance steering wheel:

Romo · 09-04-2011, 04:53 AM

Sorry, I meant different from the original ///M steering wheel............

The basis of my steering wheel is the "standard" BMW Performance steering wheel. The M steering wheel is much more expensive and as the stitches and leather stripe is changed anyhow, for it made no sense to take the M steering wheel.

The ///M steering wheel with the blue ring will cost €485,-- without tax........so there will be no great difference in price

the normal one you can buy for 399 EURO incl. VAT. The M one goes for 575 EUR incl VAT. So there is a big difference in price

The Alcantara center cap is about 40 EUR for both.
The question is do you want to have orange stitching and piece of leather or not. I do not like the additional colors in the 1M interior. For that you pay about at least 150 EUR on top.
