Thumbs up Fanatec Gaming Racing Wheel Group-Buy

I've been in contact with Fanatec for a group-buy on their premium racing wheels for the PC/PS3/360. Of course like all group-buys the more people interested, the lower the pricing will be. They have already responded with the green light, and will be getting back to me in the next few days with pricing. Just let me know if you'd be interested in one of their amazing products. Here's their website for you to check out:

http://www.fanatec.de/

Yes all of their wheels are fully licensed and authorized by Porsche, so if you have a PS3 you'd better be sure to go with the GT3RS wheel.

I lurk here all the time, all my 8k+ posts are over at M3Forum.





**this group buy has moderator approval from GT3 Chuck**

The wheels are awesome. My only concern is the estimated ship date. I've heard horror stories of guys waiting 6 months to get a shipped wheel. Fanatec customer service is horrible from what I've read on other forums (Forza 3, etc.). Would love to replace my MS wheel to enjoy Forza 3 & Race Pro.

I had about 12 days shipping to Canada, and when the shifter broke they sent me a new one right away... I thought the service was really good.

Hey guys, I'm glad there's interest. We have at least 2 dozen guys at M3Forum interested, so if we add you lot to the list we're getting close to 30 and IIRC that will be the largest Group-Buy Fanatec has ever done.

The emails I currently have from them look like it's a go, I'm just waiting for them to reply with a price.
