Some friends, who bought their cars earlier, were very jealous that I already had mine.....

Also, the car was ordered with a leather steering wheel....which has turned out to be one of my favorite options.....
I regret not speccing leather on either my 2RS or 3RS. An alcantara wheel feels cheap and out of place in a road car, in my opinion. Thankfully the Speedster is alcantara-free and I had the foresight to go full leather on the Senna.

Sorry I respectfully disagree ; the alcantara gives a Motorsport feel that fits the cars 100%!

I think the Alcantara wheel works brilliantly while wearing Sparco race gloves, otherwise much prefer leather with bare hands...

I agree. Alcantara provides that extra grip and prevents slippage when you go through turns and chicanes at the track. On daily driving Alcantara feels good too! Now for real daily driving I will agree leather suits just fine.

Drive safe,
