Is that Rick's steering wheel leather? It looks so ...FAT. I just wanna wrap my hands around it.
It is my ap1 factory wheel that I had re-covered by JPM Coachworks in GA. I ordered the M3 spec which is a good bit fatter than the oem wheel. I always disliked how skinny the oem wheel was, so when I re-did my wheel I went with the thicker size.

It feels awesome in my big clunky hands, it is one of the best upgrades I've made to the car, you appreciate it everytime you drive. All of my interior upgrades are JPM Coachworks leather. The wheel was pretty expensive but it is really nice quality and I get to keep my airbag, no regrets. I love it. Close up shot below:

Interestingly, when the full red interior came out it was not popular at all. I didn't like it much at the time either - it has since grown on me. I still like the original red/black interiors best and since I am rambling... my least favorite interiors are the two-tone red black seats.

I also have an all red interior in my 02 ap1 sebring silver.. i honestly love it...but i love the color red..i dont how ever think it goes with the exterior color of the car. But it is beautiful to look at and quiet unique.. i have seen a few S2k but none were all red. I think the all red goes well with the S. It was the primary reasoni bought the car ...besides it being an S.
But yes i read somewherethere wete quiet a few S2000`s made with all red i i terior...so i thought mine was not thatrare, but it really doesnt bother me..i loveit.. thats enough for me.

The red/black seats in the early models are not nearly as nice as the red/black seats used in the 08-09 models, I think the ones in the 08-09 models are the best looking seats of any S2000.

Looks fantastic. There's a local upholsterer I'll be contacting for possible seat leather repair...maybe they'll do steering wheels too.

Now this is a rare interior. Below that is an even more rare soft top.




Nice mine is 03 GPW with tan.

Red on tan is almost as bad as a yellow s2000 with red interior.

I guess that's why the most popular combination for Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Fiat and Ferrari is red exterior with tan interior. It must be an Italian thing. But then, what do they know about art, decor and industrial design?
I'm Italian and I like your car's colour combination, so there must be some truth to that, nice work on the car IMO. .

I learned many years ago in my business not to force my design opinions onto the person requesting the work, beauty is defnitely in the eye of the beholder, and the person that pays the bill gets exactly what they want.

I live by the motto "what other people think of me is none of my business"
