So maybe even if the wood steering wheel is not in the US yet it might surface for next year or the year after that.
It's not a performance for functional improvement, just cosmetics.
One would have to decide how much wood is enough. There will be shift ****, dash and steering wheel. Got to get the wood grains and finish to match, I hope they thought of that already.
I like the fully steering in wood as opposed to just a portion.

I left a deposit for my mini a full 10 months before any mini's would hit US shores.I have the first catalogue I was given,and there was DEFINATELY a wood steering wheel option.When I finally got to spec my car out at the dealer, I mentioned this option and the salesman knew nothing of it,and I had to actually show him the listing before he would believe me.He asked the GM about it and was told "not available" .End of story....I'd still like to have one WITH air bags if necessary.I'd even forgo my stereo controls and cruise buttons.Siggggghhhhhh.
