alcantara is the worst material possible for a steering wheel, with 6 months taking delivery of my AMG it was glued down and shiny
You guys must all have clammy hands - had an Alcatara wheel on my previous CGTS and even after a year it still looked like new. Plus it was a welcomely warm material during the usual UK weather. I'd have it on any surface in a heartbeat.PhantomPH said:

I love them, and I think most folk don't realise they can be cleaned and end up looking newer than any worn, shiny leather rim.

It's sad that BMW think that they have to end production of the i8. It's still a unique looking, and unique idea of car.
I don't think it was a massive sales success and IMO didn't seem to have the halo effect the R8 did for Audi.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
