Well, correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't there an option to get a fully leather trimmed sterring wheel by Ford? Or are you reffering to the choice of colours?
Anyway, I think if you saw it in flesh, you might change your mind.
Though, to be fair, I have to admit I am also a believer in standard solutions…
Having said that, if puma was produced today, you'd probably have loads of options possible on it including that customisation program (can't remember the name) which would make this post(s) meaningless as all would be to an extent standard :?:
