Not everyone is into cars, but those who do appreciate all things automotive realize just how much cool stuff one can find. Take this Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel – it is perhaps the coolest thing I have seen today. The replica is the same scale as the real steering wheel that Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso uses in his car. Well I guess I should also mention that the other Ferrari driver, Felipe Massa, has the same steering wheel.
If you are an F1 fan – a Ferrari fan in particular – daydreaming about being behind the wheel of the famous red racing car is probably nothing new for you. For majority of us, in all probability, driving a Ferrari (much less owning one) will remain a dream. Heck, many will probably only see a Ferrari on TV or in the movies.
With the release of this limited edition Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel replica, though, the chances of getting your hands on something real – not counting Ferrari apparel, key rings, and the like. And since it looks exactly like what you see the Ferrari drivers use during the races, you can easily improve your daydreaming experience.
Just how accurate is this replica? For starters, the Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel is made of genuine carbon fiber. Then you have the buttons, paddles, and switches – all of which actually move. If you buy the Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel replica, you also get a leather base (red, of course) plus a clear cover (to protect it from dust). The steering wheel weighs in at 14.5 kg (surprisingly heavy!) while the outer box measures in at 45 x 42 x 42.
If you have $2,230.15 (shipping and tax not included) to spare and you are a true Ferrari fan, then you ought to go to the Ferrari online store now to order one. There are only 250 units of the Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see them sell like hot cakes.
Oh, and just for fun, wouldn’t this be the perfect companion for the Ferrari 150 Italia Full Size Steering Wheel replica? (Yes, I am a Ferrari-Red Bull fan.)
