smaller diameter steering wheel?

I saw a Boxster in polar silver with the factory aerokit today, and the factory steering wheel was definitely smaller than the standard wheel. The research I can find turns up something called 'sport steering wheel', but I'm not sure if that was available on the 986/996 vehicles or not. It was quite cool. I checked Carnewal but they don't have one, nor do the online Porsche dealers with tequipment that I have checked. Anyone know of this?

Gemballa

I have the Gemballa 340mm with the Tiptronic buttons which are better than standard this is a dream


Previously I had a 320MM techart on my 996 but his obscures some of the dials and isn't quite it

I've seen the Gemballa wheel, but this was a Porsche wheel

Crash is infamous around these parts
Are you sure it wasn´t an aftermarket wheel with the factory airbag cover?

It was an exact copy of a factory wheel then, with the same stitching and placement of the bumps at 10 and 2
