    Maybe if you remove the CS embroidery...

    Eh, it's small and the same color as the wheel. I don't think it's intrusive

    Not at all would be preferable... Then again admittedly CS does have some good parts the steering wheel being one of them so I guess the embroidery wouldn't be so bad

    Yeah I would prefer no logo on a steering wheel, but whatever. I'm not a corksport fan boy, but have some of their parts. The steering wheel is one they got right, so I can live with the logo. I've got parts from a lot of different brands on my car. I'm a firm believer in researching each part and selecting the brand that will do the best job of meeting my needs on my car regardless of who's name is on it. That has resulted in my car having parts from pretty much all the reputable vendors on it. Seems like most of the major vendors has at least one part or part category that they excel at.

    Just pull the trigger. CS does it's best to put out the right parts. Sometimes it fails, sometimes it kills it. This is one part that kills it.

    I, too, hate the CS logo on the steering wheel, but the awesome look and feel of it make it not matter so much. I have yet to pull the trigger on one for myself, but I've driven a buddy's car a few times with the CS wheel and it is hands down a wonderful product. I have no CS parts at all and have refrained from buying from them due to questionable quality in the past, but they definitely hit a home run with the wheel. Hoping I'll be able to find the funds to get one for myself sooner than later.

    On this day, I missed my car. That`s what I did to it. I missed it. Actively and passionately missed it. The drive back from a short jaunt out of town was so hard. Three mildly modded wrx`s (not even STI`s) drove by at once and I felt like a dog on a leash. So, car, I thought about you. I remembered a few good times we had. I raised an energy drink to your continued progress and said a silent prayer that your heart transplant go well. And that it hurry the hell up.

    I find this funny/ I can relate to this on so many levels.
    Whenever I go out with the wife and we take her car, it seems like there is an influx of modified cars around. Almost taunting me.
    And even though I relate, I find it comical how we have so much love and passion for a car. Almost like an extension of ourselves where we almost feel lost without it.

    I found a solution: buy the wife a hot hatchback. Then either car you take doesn't suck. We are taking her car to the dragon in a couple weeks.

    She has an F Sport. Don't get me wrong it's a well designed car, just a bit boring. Especially after driving the Mazda.

    Me too. I just spent two weeks out of town while my car sat alone in the airport parking garage. My Kia Forte rental was a POS in the New Mexico heat. When we drove through the mountains on the way to El Paso I was wishing I had my car.

    I totally love that moment after a long work trip in a shitty rental car when I see my car in the airport garage. It's like coming home to your baby.
