As I said I do like the look of the wheel (when I test drove an G30 with M Sport wheel, I actually think the M Sport wheel looks cheap with all the silver plastic) I also felt the rim was a little thick.

The one that is fitted feels good and looks a little more sophisticated.

I still prefer the M Sport wheel that was on my F11 M Sport.

The question is has the dealer made a mistake( can they specify different wheels), or have they run out of M Sport Wheels? and will it affect resale in the future? Or maybe it will increase the value of the car as it is more bespoke/individual

I will speak to the dealer when I get chance to try and find out what has happened.
Okay, so the factory purposefully put that steering wheel in. The next question would be "why?". Is it a touring thing?

I think if you like the steering wheel, then just push for some form of compensation. The dealer doesn't know you prefer this one, and the car when you ordered it was stated to have an M Sport steering wheel.

You could end up with a double win here.
