For some of you, it wouldn't be
Gran Turismo 5 unless there's a force-feedback steering wheel at the helm, but which one to choose?
If history's any judge, that depends on how just how badly you want to feel like you're driving a Porsche. $250 buys you the Fanatec Porsche 911 GT2, another officially-licensed Xbox 360 wireless wheel, which features fourteen hidden buttons, a 900° steering angle, and the exact same
soft Alacantra leather you'll find on the real deal. (R.I.P, Khan.) Like its
oh-so-similar predecessors, the controller also plays nice with PS3 and PC via USB cable, and an extra $250 for the Clubsport Edition gets you a stick shift, carbon fiber paddle shifters, and some seriously high-end adjustable aluminum pedals. Read up on all the details at our source link. You'll want to be prepared for that heart-to-heart with your wallet.

I just got a gt2 and right out the box it has issues, Fanatec offers no support, My mic buzzes, and it will not stop transmitting the buzz even after I disconnect it. It is so bad I can not play online with it which is why I bought it in the first place. The buzzing annoys the other players so badly they do not want to race with me anymore
