No hands! I use my knees, like the pros.

just at 9 most of the time with my arm against the arm rest/ door panel. 3 and 9 for interstate and adventurous driving. I use the hand spots as thumb rest.

Maybe it's the bulges in the wheel that psychosomatically make me put my hands there but unless I'm cruising on the highway, I'm at 10 and 2.

If I'm driving fast like I stole the car, then it's 10 and 2. Other than that, G.

Left hand usually between 6 and 7 with the right hand near the shifter. When hitting twisties, 10 and 2 is a must.

In the S, 9 and 3 is the norm.
DD sedan, one hand about 8, resting on the knee (Automatics and being lazy)
