Yes. And it's smooth leather like nappa.

I'm coming out on an m3, and the sportvwheel is a POS compared to the M wheel. I have the nappa leather and the sport wheel has the pebbly leather that is a total mis match . I already told my dealer to get me an M wheel.

Hmmm the sports package wheel looks thicker on the online configurator and I like it.
