i recently went to pinebelt chevy in lakewood to check out a new camaro. They had a 2010 ZR1 vette there, thing was really nice, $115,000 nice, EXCEPT it has the same damn steering wheel as my old 07 cobalt ss!!! this may not bother some, but if im spending that kinda money on a car i would want something different then a $20k car. just sayin..... oh and a test drove an SLP Camaro....didnt really like it.....

Would you rather pay for the performance or the steering wheel?

i agree, and not to be a picky person but my moms 08 malibu has the same steering wheel and the cobalt. of course this one is leather wrapped tho. car companies have always used the same wheel across different models. my cherokee has a mini van steering wheel.

Vitals- two of the steering wheels you posted are the same :lol:

but I agree with you guys. The corporate steering wheel is in my Saturn and I have to admit, I would be very irritated if I were to see it in a Corvette as well. The steering wheel is great, but that kind of cost cutting takes the coolness and the novelty out of a car like that. The parts bin borrowing is not as bad in other brands as it is in GM and Chrysler (from what I've seen). Go figure.
