Fanatec
launched a new wireless wheel for racing fans. The Porsche 911 Turbo Racing Wheel is an officially licensed Porsche product and it looks a lot more professional than most racing wheels.
According to Fanatec, it took the firm seven years to acquire the license, and it required that the wheel be "the best out there." We can't judge the quality from here, but we can tell you it supports wireless USB technology and boasts a trio of force feedback motors, a 6+1 speed H-pattern gear shifter, cordless pedals, an automotive grade leather covering, a key-shaped 1GB flash drive for storing settings and compatibility with Sony's PlayStation 3 and PCs of (almost) all ages.
Fanatec's Porsche racing wheel looks very stylish but unfortunately it's quite expensive, it won't set you back as much as a real Porsche but $349.99 is still quite expensive for a racing wheel.
