Why is the steering wheel not centered left-to-right on the driver's seat? Is this normal? I find it a little strange, and a couple other people have commented on it.

That's funny. I always suspected that they weren't lined up. But it wasn't until recently when I went to add bolsters to the stock seats that it became really apparent. No idea, but I imagine it probably has to to with keeping the car small and not adding extra sheet metal. It's a compromise, but one of the reasons these cars are so light and nimble.
