5 out of 5 stars CLUTCH! METAL! LEATHER!   August 21, 2008
Ok sim racing fans, this has got to be the best main-stream available wheel. I have had nothing but enjoyment in using it. The only hassle is set-up and tear-down: wires galore (it sure would be nice to have a dedicated sim racing station). It would be awesome if they were able to implement wireless communication between the components...


5 out of 5 stars Pleasantly surprised   August 17, 2008
I bought this wheel without seeing it in person, and wasn't 100% sure what it would be like. It turns out to have a very solid look and feel and seems more or less like driving a real car. I can't compare it to other wheels, but I can say that this wheel gets the job done and makes driving games both more fun and easier to win.


5 out of 5 stars Expensive,,,but fun to use!   August 3, 2008
It's expensive, but it is really fun to use, it even helped me improve on some of my times.


5 out of 5 stars Best computer accessary ever   August 1, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have owned this now for over a month and it has just been the best and most fun thing I have ever owned for my computer. The only down sides that I have with it is the clamps. They are plastic and don't really do a good job with my desk. I had to find a peice of wood use the plastic clamps to clamp it to the wood then use C-clamps to clamp it to my desk, not a big deal but for $250+ you would think they would of come up with a better way to mount it.

The force feedback is really strong so if you haven't used the wheel before keep it on low, otherwise it will break your wrists. All around good design, feels great in the hands, and the shifter is quite amazing. Petals feel realistic, but the paddle shifters really need to stay still... If you have the wheel on 900 degree turning you often forget which one is the up shift and which one is the down shift.



5 out of 5 stars The ultimate toy for the die hard races   July 30, 2008
WOW! What a brilliant toy. It is exactly what the reviews on this site talked about. Excellent quality, excellent gaming experience. I've been racing the rally simulator games WRC & Colin Mcrae for over 10 years, & the G25 took my gaming experience to a whole new level!! I wish the gear box wasn't separated from the wheel.
I got it on time. It was easy to install. I'm extremely with my purchase. Thank you Logitech & Amazon.
