Okay. I am going on the record as saying that my GTS was owned by none other than Pam Anderson.

Don't know it to be true, I'm just saying it.

Anybody else out there with a Pam Anderson car?

John, it was the OTHER end of Pam that was big. The 928 is a J-Lo car.

That Cork interior 928 is my favorite, Selleck ordered some very nicely equipt cars.

If the car is real I'd love to see it, but suspect the OP is totally FOS.

agreed that it's a very nice interior color... only that the Sellek car isn't cork.

I'm 6'4", seat back pressed back onto the side speaker and folded down rear upper seat. I can reach the stock steering wheel just fine. As long arms usually go with the long legs, I can't see why anyone would need an extended steering wheel mount.

I can tell you its frustrating to switch back and forth between a car that has the hub and another which doesn't. Can't ever find the controls.

Makes for a looong reach to the steering wheel, shifter, controls, etc.

Extended hub wheel did not provider much relief. Went with an aftermarket wheel that has a very deep dish to get the wheel closer to me. Much better.
