These wheels suck.

This reminds me about the Pillsbury doughboy debacle on the 05's steering wheel.

The proper way to honk the horn on the 05 is to use your index finger and push lightly into the 'belly' to which the car will let out a subtle "hoo hoo".

The 05 steering wheel.....

What were they thinking, I hope somebody got fired.

It was not enough to stop me from buying my 2005, but it just does not fit the character of a sports car.

After the Pillsbury Dough Boy photochop on the 05 steering wheel everytime I see one that's all I can see. A headless Dough Boy

There's one more thing to clutter up my mind now

I have to admit I would have never thought of that until I saw the photochop. I'm just glad I have the three spoke steering wheel. I'd never be able to drive my car with a straight face. It makes you wonder if the designers at GM were onto something (more like ON something).
