Who wants the new Z06 to have a more round steering wheel? Tracking the 2020 C8 - Z51 @ Ron Fellows Performance Driving w/a square steering wheel sure took some getting use to...

No... tracked my 2020 coupe a few times at VIR and, if done right, your hands never leave 9 and 3. Steering wheel is very well done.

Thought this was going to be about exhaust tips... So I vote for square steering wheel, and round exhaust tips.

We shouldn't rule out a triangular wheel.

Seems like a moot point, since we already know what the Z06 steering wheel looks like.

I prefer a one dimensional wheel.... therefore you can have quantum handling....
