The New Steering Wheel Is Nice.

I love the new stearing wheel and wish my 2011 SS had it in fact it looks like the same one from the Chevy Cruze ?

When GM announced a smaller diameter steering wheel, did they take into account the flat bottom, I wonder...

I actually love it to hahaha, one of the things I like about my 350Z is the steering wheel and if it is anything like the new one I will be super happy with it. Though I do wish it said Camaro on it.

One of my few complaints about my Camaro is the steering wheel actually. I hate it.

I could really care less if it is the same one from the cruze, as long as it is comfortable. I find the current wheel to really be hard on the hands after about 4-5 hours of non stop driving.

I think it was one of the few things that was better left on the concept car, so I am glad to see the new wheel.

For a long time, the Corvette had the same wheel as my Pontiac G5.

Maybe NOT LITERALLY but it in a way is the same actually. Same design for the most part, the only thing really changed is the bottom is flat and and the center bar piece other than that maybe a few minor details are different.

I hate to say it but the Cruze interior has a more overall refined look and better PERCIEVED quality than the Camaro.

it is close to the Cruze but not the same...the only thing I don't like about the new one is the center of the steering wheel where the bowtie is... I would rather have the current style with Camaro written there or something... the outside and everything looks and prolly feels great, just the inner part hurts my eyes
