Maybe they will install the F-Sport steering wheel for free?

It's not uncommon to be missing something. My car is missing the f sport floor mats. They gave me the luxury ones. They are put together by people and people make mistakes. Since its new to them it didn't get caught in quality control. First year cars always have bugs.

They replaced my CT steering wheel without hassle after 2 years of ownership due to some minor scratches on the leather. They will replace your steering wheel in its entirety especially since this an indisputable manufacturing defect.

LOL! Wow, another thing to put on the list to look out for when I pick up mine! Maybe they'll glue it on for you!

I like your style, John510. I find that you are often a moderating voice of reason on this forum.

Thats because you dont have red interior. If your steering wheel was red stitched you would get the red F Sport mats. In your case of having black interior you wouldnt get them.

Your missing more than just the emblem also. That entire wheel is from a luxury. It should be perforated where your hands go. Check around the car and see if anything else is amiss.

No way I can tell unless I park next to another Fsport. Anyone in Socal wanna meet up. I'll probably just drop by the dealership tomorrow.

Well, I do have the most important thing. S+ mode and the pimp gauge clusters.
