i want to get one..but at a bit lower of a price.

I still have my last logitech wingman formula wheel...that i ended up never using because my USB ports have never worked correctly.


but this system sure does look sweet

So does anyone here have the G25? If so, how do they compare with other wheels/pedals that you've used? Despite their price, I was thinking of replacing my Momo wheel with these.

j511180, what do you think of your Momo wheel? I want to get into GTR2 but I've never used a racing wheel before. The G25 looks wicked, but the Logitech Momo wheel costs half as much - is there a noticeable difference in feel?

Anyone have experience with this wheel? How does it compare to the Driving Force Pro? Is it really worth the extra $150?

I've had the G25 for about a year now and it's great. I previously had a Momo and while it was a good wheel, it doesn't compare to the G25. The G25's Feel and Construction is excellent. I also personally think the force feedback quality is a whole lot better than the Momo.

I liked the G25 so much, I built a cockpit for it. The pedals are all modular which allows you to remove them from the factory base and mount them however you please. I inverted mine and mounted them to a piece of MDF to allow for better heel/toe shifting:

And here's a quick picture of my cockpit's "dash". The switch panel is still a work in progress but all the buttons work and are mappable in-game.

If you're into racing sims and play them often get the G25. For casual play go with a Momo or equivalent.
