My thoughts exactly. Wood has no place on any car interior newer than 1980 (Jeep Grand Wagoneers excluded).

i disagree...wood looks nice when it matches other trim parts of the car. i just dont like how large and thin those nardi wheels are, it dont match simply because large thin steering wheels without airbags and thin chrome spokes dont look like they belong on a modern car. if you look at older cars from the 80z and back all their steering wheels were large thin and they looked like they belonged in their time period.

Nardi makes quality stuff that is why.

As a Miata owner, you should now that Mazda went to Nardi in 1999 for a streering wheel and shift knob to put in the 10th Anniversary Model.

yea i have them but its no different than the steering wheel in the protoge and even a few miatas had the exact same looking steering wheel only without the nardi torino badging. now i diddnt say they were of poor quality or anything i just think they large wooden ones look ugly in moderin cars. my steering wheel looks like it belongs in my car. its the same color and texture and everything as the rest of the car.
