"F1-style" steering wheels are usually only found in F1 cars because they are terrible for driving on the street, and F1 cars are specific machines built to perform in very specific settings. Get off my lawn.

If my Googling is correct, it looks like the seller equipped the car with this transmission.

QFT.  Though let's be honest, KITT was actually driving.  He just let Michael think he was driving.  Ego stroking and all that...

Kinda weird the effort and expense to put a dog box in that - it was probably 10k+ on its own...
