Steering wheel

Is anyone else hoping that you can get a normal (Eg, M3P) style steering wheel?

I plan to use the car as a daily driver and want it to be somewhat comfortable to drive.
Yeah, after trying out the yoke on the MS plaid I can say that I am not a fan of not having the driving stalks there - the weird shape of the yoke is something I could probably get used to, but I would def. hate it on long drives.

Don't think it's a personal thing. It's a functional thing. For those who don't like sport driving, maybe relearning not to put thumbs on the horn (or other non-tactile locations that control ~something) can be adapted to. Seems pointless, to me. For sport, ~800 degrees of yoke rotation, lock to lock, is a deal-breaker. I suspect that, like Probst, serious drivers will swap to a round SW. I know nanny use is far from just a Tesla thing, but they can be turned off placing control in the driver's hands. I"m not a great driver, but could drive the old RWD MS faster in snow (w/snows), than the power-kill nannies would otherwise let me. And that 's the point; pushing the car hard enough that you might just have to shuffle steer your way out. Round SW, please.

I’m trying to decide if this is a deal breaker for me or not. Touch sensitive buttons on the steering wheel also seem like an obviously bad idea. I mean you’re touching the wheel all the time. If they allow it, I might ask to postpone my spot until there’s a third party wheel that can be installed. (The car would be my daily driver)
