Default '06 steering wheel

Anyone have a pic of the '06 steering wheel? Is it the same as the Z06's?

Next year, they will complain that the steering wheel doesn't have radio controls

All the thread-starter asked was if the '06 steering wheel is the same as the Z06.

My understanding is that, at this point in time, it is.

The wheel is the same as the C6-z06 pics.

But, who cares. I'm sure it's just about the same and I plan on enjoying what I have NOW.

Cheers!

Go to a Saturn Retailer and look at the wheel on a VUE.

The problem is, I can't buy until the '06's arrive. (various reasons) So, I'm just curious about the '06 changes. If the "Dough Boy" wheel stayed the same, and there were no six speed auto, I'd still buy.

I like the steering wheel. Must be a minorty on this but seems to fit my driving style better then the C5. Wonder how many folks complaining have even driven a C6 for any length of time before they complain about it.

Nah, but a small sink and refrigerator in a Corvette might be nice.
