Logitech G27 Racing Wheel Dual Motor Force Feedback

Logitech supplies the G27 dual motor Force Feedback leather-wrapped Racing Wheel, the stainless steel petrol, brake, and clutch pedals, the 8-button gear shifter module, the power supply and user documentation – you just add your PC (or PlayStation) and your SIM racing driving talents.

Some time ago Mercedes asked, “If Mercedes Benz trucks are so expensive, why are there so many on the road?” You can say the same for the Logitech G27. It costs more than R4 000 but remains popular. This is the ultimate gift-to-self for any serious SIM racer.
