S-Line - they use the leftovers from the bin
S3 - they match the rest of the S interior, unified look
RS - they know owners sweat a lot when they drive 'fast'
Wish the wheel was alcantara
S3 wheel is too thin and doesnt give enough grip.
Not a huge problem, but could be better.
New RS3 wheel is quite nice.
I have an alcantara wheel in my out going Mini JCW. 33K to date and it hasn't worn yet.
General consensus is everyone likes/loves the S3 steering,,the said member, is always moaning about his car constantly for the silliest reasons,it gets a tad tiresome after awhile
Wow, what an attack on a member for expressing his preference - or not - about a piece of equipment on his car.
No wonder he stopped posting at Entry Number 18.
I like my steering wheel like my women.....with a flat bottom and curvy top
Anyway...you're supposed to have it in dynamic all the time where you don't need to turn it much to go round corners
Very nice the red stitching makes the difference,it's very similar in style to my RCZ alcantara sports steering not the cush thoughI have to I find nothing to fault with S3 steering wheel, I have to admit, I liked the wheel in my mk6 GTI better, due to the slightly thicker rim - but talk about splitting hairs.
I think you need to buy yourself a new steering wheel and stop posting stupid threads before you do thatI don't think dynamic steering changes how fast the steering becomes but rather just increases the steering effort and killing any feel so I think your point is moot.
I don't really care for the D-shape wheel either, it's gimmicky at best.
Which is probably why the S6, S7, and S8 all use a full round wheel and not a little D-shaped wheel.
The rs models are just gimmicks then
This thread has gone full circle !
I went read your post @Rob and all I noticed was your avatar !Full circle but with a flat bit on the bottom !

This not what we are about, any one has a right to their own opinion,
This is absolutely right, and something so many keyboard warriors on this forum seem to forget... There IS NO PERFECT CAR... ARE YOU READING THIS?I love everything about the car except the turbo lag and that steering wheel but that doesn't mean I wont buy it!
All cars come with downsides so it's just a matter of finding a car with more pros than cons.
