Fanatec Presents Porsche 911 GT2 Gaming Wheel

Getting behind the wheel of a Porsche 911 GT2 can be quite expensive. So Fanatec has just released an officially-licensed Xbox 360 wireless wheel that looks and feels just like the real deal. The complicated gaming device features fourteen hidden buttons, a 900° steering angle, and the exact same soft Alacantra leather you'll find on the real wheel.

Just $250 (EUR190) buys you the Fanatec Porsche 911 GT2, while for another $250 the Clubsport Edition gets you a stick shift, carbon fiber paddle shifters, and some seriously high-end adjustable aluminum pedals. The Multiplatform system is compatible with the Xbox 360, any PC or a PlayStation3, through either Wireless connection or USB cable. Three Force Feedback motors and smooth belt drive deliver the sensation of actually being behind the wheel of a Porsche.X

The wheel sports an authentic metal Porsche logo and is wrapped in genuine Alcantara from Italy which is 100% the same material as used in the real cars. It can memorize up to 5 wheel set-ups and can adjust sensitivity independent from the game. The turning angle can be adjusted in the wheel from 90° to 900°.
