go for the M-steering if you must change hor! No contest! There is still 15% discount on accessories you will pay about $1800 for the M-steering non paddle shift plus airbag for this month only.

Zag, how is the feel of the M-sports steering different from the standard sports wheel, does it feel beefier?
I think the leather is different rite? nicer leather?

Heh, heh.....you finally decided on the Aux input huh?

the steering is beefier for one, and is egg-shaped instead on round and at the 3 and 9 o'clock position with the additional knuckles the design is such that your hand grip fit like a mold on it.
the leather feels the same as far as i notice.

For tires you can try chinwah at killiney road. Don't think he will offer much higher but if you get the PS2 from him he might slice some mustard off for you when you trade in at the same time.

Just get the M5 steering wheel first. Nothing to lose. Looks good too. There might be a after market kit that might come out to work in conjuction with the EGS. You never know. However it might void the warrenty for your gear box. Just like the E46 couple of years back, it was popular then. So far there wasn't any car that had gearbox problem because of it.
