Default gt500 steering wheel

I want to replace the stock steering wheel on my 2005 mustang and thought that maybe the gt500 leather wrapped steering wheel would be nice. does anyone have the aforementioned wheel. if so do you like it. if you don't like it can you recomend a different wheel. thanks.

I recommend it...I've driven both the Shelby GT500 and the Bullitt and these steering wheels feel so much better in your hands...

yeah I have the gt500 wheel...felt it was a little pricey for a steering wheel ($46,830) but the dealer said it came with the car attached....[8D]..just kidding...night and day difference from my 05 gt steering wheel..so much more comfortable.....I would definitely reccommend

if you're considering a GT500 style steering wheel, i would recommend the Bullitt version

the one in the GT500 has red stitching, and i'm assuming you don't have red anywhere else in your interior

the one in the Bullitt has silver stiching, which you wont notice in contrast to the stiching elsewhere in your cockpit unless you are looking

My Bullitt wheel has black stitching. But yeah I feel like I am driving a Lamborghini with this steering wheel.

Bullitt for our Mustangs is the right choice...same thing....just stitching colors in difference...

have u seen the new Mustang interior shots of the 2010 GT500? looks like it's also just gonna have the metal one...I wanted another leather upgraded SHelby GT500 style one....so sad

I want the steering wheel too, It's too pricey though IMO, almost not even worth it.

I didn't even know they had different steering wheels outside the center badge and the billet trim options, guess you learn something new everyday.
