Can't say I'm a fan... I prefer an all leather steering wheel and shifter... also 3 spoke wheel!

I honestly thought I'd like it more. Maybe it would go better with beige than platinum

Default It just something most of us haven't seen before, therefore the usual initial cautious reactions....

However, I remember my first perceptions of luxury and class in the interior being black leather with wood trimming, especially on the steering wheel. I think people will grow to like it but in the same way, it detracts from the sporty look and feel of the A4.

Default I wouldn't want to use a wood manual shift **** either...

I'm glad Jim Ellis had an A4 with the vavona wood and this wheel/shifter.
I decided that I don't like vavona, so I got walnut, and I prefer the 3 spoke wheel. I haven't seen a manual with this wheel option.

Right, all leather wheel, but wood shifter for tip.
