For the whole package, wheel, shifter and pedals.

Wheel and shifter pics below:

Looks pretty neat. The only issue seems to be that the majority of
buttons are on the shifter rather than the wheel (which has only a
couple) which seems a big change from the DFP, but then it is aiming to
be more realistic and not have console type controls.

I guess a bit depends on what you will use it for as modern steering
wheels are packed with controls. Should be perfectly matched for the
more retro stuff though - '79 mod for rFactor comes to mind!

It has the 900 degree rotation as per the DFP but is supposed to be
better engineered, smoother and quieter according to the blurb and
feedback from testers.

Cheers

Those pedals look great but what happens when those crap pots wear out
and Logitech won't sell replacements? My DFP pedels lasted less than 8
months! Why won't they go digital on the pedals also?

That wheel looks pretty nice. I like the shifter. Finally a controller
manufacturer that will produce "professional" quality wheels. My only
concerns is how easy will the pot replacement be... That's why I still
prefer homemade/custom wheels (Thomas Superwheel) over this. 300$ is
still steep if you to replace the whole wheel 6 months to 1 year down
the road due to failing pots...

In my early racing sim racing days, I went through 3 Thrustmaster Nascar
wheels (the cheaper 79$ sort).

P.S.

A question that has been asked a lot.

Logitech's response has been that they will NOT sell spare parts, but the
parts they are now using are industry standard and available from many
places, and they are supposed to be easy to replace.

RMA it. Logitech is good with the RMA because I suspect they have have a
larger factory defect mean..
