Let's be realistic - only real simracers use a real wheel from a real car. If you don't use a real wheel from a real car, are you really simracing at all? That's just the reality of the situation, be real.
It's really wonderful to read about all the envious people in the world. Basically everyone wants this wheel, no one has to tell me. The price is too expensive??? Seriously then buy the Porsche Gt3 Cup 992 Wheel for over 7,000 euros. Best regards from an owner of this steering wheel, which has been in use for a very long time without a wear indicator :-) Great Video Thanks .
The price is too high for what you get as a simracer. However if you're a passionate (and wealthy) collector, I could imagine this is a must-buy because it's basically a piece of simracing history with it being the first and so far only homologated racecar wheel that can be bought and used by a simracing hobbyist. Kudos to Fanatec and BMW for making it happen. However there's no way in hell I'd dish out this kinda cash when I could buy a a Moza R16 plus GS Wheel for less than that.
I get the novelty but the price is definitively too high to just say "I could use this on a real GT4" without all of the features similar-priced wheels have PS: nice shirt 👀
Nice wheel no doubt but I prefer the total opposite, round and as light as possible with the superior, wobble free QR1 Lite. Tbh I find that the €550 Porsr wheel by Fanatec deadens the feel of the CSL DD 8Nm wheel base, but I don't expect the BMW wheel will be used by many CSL DD users. Forged carbon looks gorgeous tho'. Make a nice studio decoration for your backdrop.
Hi, i use this wheel with the CSL DD 8nm and it works really great! There is a tiny little bit of dampening because of the weight. But you can still feel all the details you need to feel.
Just too bad Fanatec, on release of the missing part to this wheel QR2, us BMW M4 Wheel owners have been forgotten for new revenue over old, we must wait it seems for new sales, to get the product before us loyal customers who have paid for the QR2 more than a year ago.
I'm sick of waiting for the QR2, and by the time it's released its going to be grossly overpriced and yesterdays news. Simlab, and VRS have quietly made QR2 like quick releases, and priced them in line with the QR1. Fanatec couldnt have picked a better way to screw up all the hype they generated wirh the QR2 announcement.
@@FunkySkeet yeah same i dont see the point aswell. I have a DD1 and using 13-16 nm with almost no flex. I have 6 Fanatec wheels so it will cost me alot 🤔 The only good thing I can see is that its a quicker thing to swap wheels and maybe it will give more power so they can make a screen in the wheels. But that will cost asmuch ad a gsi 😀
i really want a Moza R12 but dont wan to be restricted because its such a new company but that seems like the wheelbase I want. so im handcuffed right now
This wheel is the biggest gimmick in the history of gimmicks. I can think of no more useless feature to overpay for than to be able to use the wheel in a car that less than 1% of people who buy it will ever get close to.
the whole sim racing wheel business is a gimmick. But if you can afford one then why not? similar to saying that a lambo is a gimmick and you could just drive a Citroen saxo. Both get you from A to B right?
It's literally a real racing wheel! You just a hater. No one else in sim racing can say they have a real life racing wheel in their sim except this one.
