[Felixxmit2x]

Boy you are so evil

[juniorelprinci]

toda una sala de juego

[Dodenau99]

alter kumpel istn scherz das ding läuft hamma und kostet oooooooo 70 € coole scheiße ne warte hier

[JosephBeltran48]

alex does it sync in with the car as one when you brake as well as the pedals react differently

[criticaboutvids]

Just because the shifter is on the right side doesn't mean it's on the wrong side..

[boothill24]

what does all this cost

[Dodenau99]

is the ferrari F430 better than the porsche whell can one poeple of you speak beacause write german about i am a german boy and ich have buy a ferrari whell yesterday with formula1 2010

[PAPO1990]

@Dodenau99 the F430 wheel in better in some ways, and worse in others, but over all it very close but the F430 wheel works with A LOT less games on the PS3 but on PC it's mostly a non issue

[Felixxmit2x]

@Dodenau99 hallo sag mal bitte bei dem Porsche 911 Carrera Wheel - EU von Fanatec sind da Fußpedalen dabei  oder nicht, weißt du das ? ist das günstigste da, 159.95, danke

[Dodenau99]

@Felixxmit2x ja moin aber ich habe mir nicht das gekauft weil ich kann ma wenn de willst dir ein link schicken weil das andere ist auch meiner meinung nach supergut und da sind auch pedale dabei und funk. alles super willste??

bitte :P

[Felixxmit2x]

@Dodenau99 ja klaro sagmal bitte, aber nix über 250Euros !! >.<

[PAPO1990]

@JaBardy not unless you want to drive with complete and utter garbage 'cause the Microsoft wheel is crap (and I don't think they make it any more, and the wheel I think logitec make for it is not even a wheel, just a controller that looks like a wheel) but you get what you pay for

[mastermanny14]

can u use this on midnight club los angeles

[PAPO1990]

@mastermanny14 yes indeed, and it works great you can even use the H-Pattern shifter and clutch

[iiG33K3D]

where can u get the steering wheel

[lokomono89]

is this for 360 and where can i get one in the US

[PAPO1990]

@lokomono89 not this one but if you can find one the Turbo S will work on 360, but failing that the new GT2 wheel will work on 360

[PAPO1990]

@lokomono89 oh and I forgot, you should be able to buy directly from the Fanatec web-shop

[lokomono89]

@PAPO1990

so how long wold it take to ship to NJ, and thanks for the reply

[PAPO1990]

@lokomono89 sorry I couldn't answer that question even if I knew where NJ was

[lokomono89]

@PAPO1990

oo ok thanks by the way

[darksidebidi]

thanks ;)

[darksidebidi]

i where do you buy it ?

[PAPO1990]

@darksidebidi in Australia I brought it from Dick Smiths but you can also get them directly from HES (the Australian distributor) but soon Fanatec will allow more regions (including AUS) to buy directly from their webshop

[Something9035]

is it fun

[PAPO1990]

@Something9035 hell yes

[MarePeace]

is there an air bag in it?

[PAPO1990]

@MarePeace lol nah, but that would be funny. Even funnier would be to microwave an airbag (do a youtube search for that it's awesome)

[mousehunter311]

Wait a minute, you said you had your shifter on the wrong side... you don't! haha jk

[PAPO1990]

@mousehunter311 I'm in Australia so it is on the wrong side

[mousehunter311]

@PAPO1990 i know im just fuckin around

[BeagSim10]

unless I was a Nascar driver I would hide this shit from my girlfriend...assuming you got one...wanker

[PAPO1990]

@BeagSim10 wtf is that about? you make it sound like I was drowning puppies

[BeagSim10]

@PAPO1990

im sorry mate

i was on my period. NOT! u know how ridiculous u look makin a vid like this?! YOU PATTY ASS!

[PAPO1990]

@BeagSim10 patty? WTF are you saying I'm Irish or something? I made this vid 'cause when I was looking to buy the wheel I couldn't find any reviews that were comprehensive enough so I made the review I was looking for so that I could help other people in the the same position I was, so stop being an asshole or remove yourself from the gene pool and do as all a favour

[BeagSim10]

@PAPO1990

"remove yourself from the gene pool" said the 20-year-old man making a video review about a superfluous video game steering wheel. nuff said... I pitty the fool

[PAPO1990]

@BeagSim10 not 'nuf said, and if you check the date it is me as an 18 year old making this review, I enjoy racing, taking the go-karts out every day is impractical, we don't even get out every week, so this keeps me entertained and on the ball until we go out next.

[BeagSim10]

@PAPO1990

ok, respect. I respect that.

[mrgeo20]

@BeagSim10 you're a prick.

[MrSuperInsane]

does this steering wheel work for xbox 360?

[PAPO1990]

@MrSuperInsane no but the Turbo "S" does but there almost all gone, luckily there is a new GT2 wheel coming out which will so keep an eye out for that

[MrSuperInsane]

@PAPO1990 thank's they are all so expensive tho.

[PAPO1990]

@MrSuperInsane yeh but their worth it

[altair562]

salut...as avea si eu nevoie de un receiver wireless pentru acest volan...plz contact

[PAPO1990]

@altair562 sorry I only speak english

[prhoads400]

is there one for the xbox 360 

[PAPO1990]

@prhoads400 there was but now there's not, but there will be again soon (idk when tho)

[jamietorpey1996]

very good review, but do you know if i can still buy one and get it shipped to ireland?

[PAPO1990]

@jamietorpey1996 not sure, but you should be able to get the GT3 RS V2 which is probably better anyway

[jamietorpey1996]

@PAPO1990 thaks a lot man

[jamietorpey1996]

@PAPO1990 thaks a lot man, but ive decided to buy the g25 or g27

[jamietorpey1996]

@PAPO1990 thanks man, but i decided to get the logitech g25 or g27

[Lukeschedel]

How does this steering wheel compare to Logitech G25? i was planning on buying the g25 but i seen this steering wheel for $125 (same price as g25) please help

[PAPO1990]

@Lukeschedel imo it's much better, if you'd said G27 I'd say their close but even then I'd have the Porsche over a logitech any day

[Lukeschedel]

@PAPO1990 But those pedals looked like shit =\ i cant imagine trying to drift feathering the throttle on gt5 with that.... i like the wheel though.

[PAPO1990]

@Lukeschedel admittedly the throttle is a little light but it does have a nice long throw, gentle throttle control is actually quite good, but if you were to get the GT3 RS V2 you can use other pedals (including the Porsche clubsport pedals which are widely regarded as the best pedals you can get)

[Lukeschedel]

@PAPO1990 yea but how much do those clubsport pedals even cost? i was looking at the site earlier it has no price..i can buy this 911 steering wheel for $100 i dont want to spend that for new pedals =\

[PAPO1990]

@Lukeschedel admittedly the clubsport pedals are a little expensive, but in the mean time I'm you can get some cheaper ones and use (you'd have to double check which ones you can use)

[Lukeschedel]

@PAPO1990 Alright well thanks alot you really helped, Im just going to buy them the guysaid he paid $250 and wants 125 i told him i got 100 bucks and its like brand new

[PAPO1990]

@Lukeschedel cool, glad I could help

[Lukeschedel]

@PAPO1990 lol wtf i was thinking the g25 was the gt force....

[signalex1]

ALEX ADD ME ON PSN MY NAME IS SHANE1929 NO CAPS OR SPACES THANKS :D

[vlad691000]

I am Alex and I am fat :p !!

[Jazzfather1]

[PAPO1990]

@Jazzfather1 of course I do

[Jazzfather1]

@PAPO1990 hehehe  xan i have your psn when mine come XD

[599manuel]

Nice usb xdD

[Judgey112597]

What is the price for the 360 wheel?

[PAPO1990]

@Judgey112597 it depends what country you are in, but there are very few of the 360 one left

[kinghais16]

suck it

[Mustof65]

WOAAAAAAW

[MEESH810]

Aj999000 you can get it from jareer book store in Riyadh Saudi Arabia .. !!

[MEESH810]

How much is it ?!

[PAPO1990]

@MEESH810 it depends what country you are in

[ali1278]

great review dude

[TheBaziiN]

is it possible to get this, with the shifter (gear stick) on the left hand side? :)

[PAPO1990]

@TheBaziiN you can put the gear stick on whatever side you want, you don't need to get a separate one

[AJ999000]

how should i get this wheel i live in saudi arabia =(

[RKUnited]

In Germany we call it "Porsche"

[EdvinErikssonMovies]

do you think i can use a logotech wingman insted to an xbox 360?

[EdvinErikssonMovies]

can you have it on xbox 360?

[pokpokpok]

Nice wheel and setup, and thanks for the video. :)

Since you own one of these you need to learn to say porsche properly. I go by how

Ferdinand Porsche pronounced it. POR-shuh. Not trying to be rude or anything, but it gets mispronounced a lot now. As an owner it makes me cringe the same as when George Bush says Noo-Kew-Ler. LOL

[PAPO1990]

@pokpokpok well I've grown up with it always being pronounced "Porsh" and my uncle has one and still says "Porshe", I'm waiting for a german person to tell me I've been saying it wrong before I ever change, but yeh George Bush is a dumb ass :P

[jokkenizer]

Is it compatible with an Xbox 360?

[PAPO1990]

@jokkenizer you will need the Turbo S but I hear production is ending soon so there isn't much time

[EdvinErikssonMovies]

@PAPO1990 whats a turbo s?

[PAPO1990]

@EdvinErikssonMovies I've never heard of a logitech wingman but if it does work on xbox then it's shit (only 1 Logitech wheel works on 360 and it's not a proper one)

the Turbo S is the limited edition version that works on 360, the standard turbo wont work on 360

[jammydodgerman]

@jokkenizer yes

[southernclassik]

DAMN, I bet you must have a blast!

[jammydodgerman]

wyo what the FUCK is your problem?? i wanted to look at the comments for extra advice, but all i can see is you bitching and moaning and trolling. Just GTFO

[shallowEND09]

Oh and to the others I'm on ur side this guys a duche

[shallowEND09]

@wyo550 man u must think ur soo much better than everyone else coz oh I own a Porsche and a Ferrari. Well guess wat ur not the only one who can afford expensive cars I have 7 Porsches most of only u could dream if haveing a BMW X5 VW Kombi and 5 other VW so mate shut a fuck off

[PAPO1990]

@wyo550 thats all well and good that you own those cars, and yes I do envy that (but is sounds like you need these cars to validate yourself which I do not envy) but when you cant afford the cars you learn everything you can about them to get as close as possible to the cars, and I am a car person my dad is a car person and we both agree bridgestones are shit, and even the best of them are loud with poor ride quality if you put some good Michelins on (or even pirellis) you'll see the difference

[Ethanerkul]

@wyo550

Dude stop bitching about everything.

I'm driving a 87500$ BMW 5-series and I'm proud of it.

He's just doing a review, chill.

[Ethanerkul]

@wyo550

Ok, smart-ass!

[Ethanerkul]

@wyo550

Nope I didn't.

+ I don't really care what car you ''drive'', but seriously.

Stop being an ass over a review video.

[reptileguy1]

@wyo550 So why are you wasting your time replying to something like this if you own those cars, Hate gamers, and can't find anything better to do then bitch.

[ImportsBEATamerican]

@wyo550 what ferrari? Also why is a luxury sports car owner watching this? lol

[erik291]

@wyo550 ye sure you do. I bet you are a real nice driver to?. So what temp do you nead in the original tires to get the best grip??.

(sorry bad english)

[PAPO1990]

@wyo550 well the fact that you call turbines (ter-byne) terbins (what middle eastern people where on their head) ruins all credibility you have regarding pronunciation of anything but I won't hold it against you personally, but if/ when a german person tells my it's Porsche - ah I'll gladly eat my words (btw brigestones never perform as well as Michelins)

[PAPO1990]

@wyo550 if it was Porsche - a there would be an "A" (or a second "H" )

[sweet16786]

the nitro one is better in mine ipion because i have aready built a clutch and a shifter and a playseat including seat belts

[PAPO1990]

@sweet16786 nitro one???

[GreenMidgetYoda23]

Im planning on buying the 911 turbo S wheel, but I am unsure if I should get the clubsport pedals. How do you find the standard pedals which come with the wheel? They are the same pedals as the 911 turbo wheel.

[PAPO1990]

@GreenMidgetYoda23 yeh the standard Turbo S pedals are the same but with some slightly different colouring (some grey I think) and their pretty good, but from what I hear the club sport pedals are pretty much the best you can get without moving to ridiculous territory where a wheel alone cost's $1500

[GreenMidgetYoda23]

@PAPO1990 Alright thanks for the info! $100 more (450$ vs 350$ usd) for the CS pedals and the wheel. hahah gotta think if its worth it!

[thylegion]

Thanx for that.

[Fokust]

@PAPO1990 You should have gotten clubsport pedals; big difference.

[PAPO1990]

@Fokust the club sport pedals didn't exist until like 2 years after I got it, and they don't work with the Turbo (but do work with the Turbo S) well they do work but only on PC

[sunayosmani]

i got my one today from ebay great wheel

[AdrianKmiecik]

how much u pay for it

[LOLHICRONO]

AHnd um

[edusamayoa]

dude u need a gf!!!! only a real fag would try to tick someone that they have a porsche be your fucking self!!!! buy one

[PAPO1990]

@edusamayoa

1) it was a joke, I told them after that I didn't

2) how is a joke not being yourself

3) I wish I could afford a real one but at the moment I cant even get my self a Lotus

[MrKyle080905]

@edusamayoa you know remarks like that can be really offensive and lower the tone for everybody

[MrKyle080905]

@edusamayoa oh and only a real fag would watch a review just to call the guy reviewing it a fag

[MrPopyotop]

How much the wheel & all cost ? someone below said 300$ ? that's more then my xbox360 cost haha .... What store sells the wheel ?

[PAPO1990]

@MrPopyotop cost depends on where you are but here in Australia mine was a similar price to the G25 (about 400$) and the X360 one is a little more expensive, I got mine from Dick Smith Electronics but I wouldn't recommend them

[Muslim438]

@MrPopyotop its really 300 $

[coolbowens]

how reliable is it? how long does it last?

[PAPO1990]

@coolbowens well I've had it for a couple of years now and it's still going strong, remember it is german it'll probably out last anything I'm using it with (PC/ PS3)

[coolbowens]

@PAPO1990 thanks, i want one for the xbox and the microsoft wheel i have lasts for 2 or so years and its slowing dieing. so i wanted to know before i spend $350 for the porsche instead replacing it for $100 for the microsoft (i like the porsche more because of the clutch) and i want it to last more than a year because it is pricey.

[PAPO1990]

@coolbowens well like I said it's german, and really the only choice for the 360 ('cause the microsoft wheel is crap compared to most wheels) but unfortunately from what I've read on the Fanatec blog there aren't many of the 360 wheels left (it was a limited run)

[Simracer100]

Has your wheel been relaible since you've made this video?

I'm going to buy one use with Fm3.

Would you still recommend it??

[PAPO1990]

@Simracer100 well for X360 you'll need the turbo "S" and then you can get the clubsport pedals, and yes I still recommend it (especially if you get the clubsport pedals which I wish I could use)

[BestDriverInTheWorld]

Hi great review!

Does anybody know if this will work with Logitech DriveFx pedals? Because I can only afford pure edition :( please let me know! thanks

[PAPO1990]

e-mail fanatec & ask them, mine never came in a pure edition anyway

[Fananabelgica]

good detailed review.... but i've got a logitech G25 and for me it's best one yet.... Easy to use and just beautiful!! Btw Pedals, the wheel and shift are made of real alluminium and shaved in leather... in my opinium this is more of a arcade wheel... but the G25 is for those who search a real experience

[DevinRAR]

Funny, I feel the exact opposite about G25, and I have experience with both of these wheels, and the porsche outruns it by alot.

[fergus1494]

@Fananabelgica maby if your searching for metal and leather. just because its made out of that doesnt mean its good, A real feeling yes. but the ffb is different and fanatec has been ffb

[elstajk]

Umm ummm ummm !!! Thats bad!

[PspGear]

umm...umm...ummm!! stop it, you are annoying!!!!

[Fruna123]

is this compatable with xbox 360? their website says pc/ps3, but i thought i saw an xbox 360 guide button on the wheel

[PAPO1990]

no mine isn't but the new 911 Turbo S is and it has a few other minor improvements in the on board settings

[TheCaptainWinkie]

The Reviewer Papo1990, seems like a good fellow..My problem is with his review, Indian's research (or lack there of), the way in which this toy is being used and his level of experience with this or other wheels. I mean no insult to the reviewer nor do I own a horse :)..let alone a high one. Just constructive criticism (or destructive as he sees it) Just the review and length. Professional reviews of this, like the one on your top right from simracingtonight is thorough.

-The Captain is done

[sawink]

Sooo... Like a half an hour review, mounting and setting it up and even wrapping the cords neatly around the mounting bracket ..... AND YOUR NOT USING THE SHIFTER, CLUTCH OR COCKPIT VIEW ON "ANY" GAME????!!!!!!!

What is the point of you having this wheel? Don't give a review if you havn't used the g25/27 and are an amatuer (you said so) at driving.

[PAPO1990]

I'm allowed to not use the shifter clutch or cockpit view (or bumper view) the point of having the wheel is it's fun any why do I need to use a G25/ G27 to review this, this wheel is fantastic end of argument, some people prefer the G25/27 but that's just a matter of personal preference, I've felt the G25 in store and it just feels like a toy compered to this so get of your high horse, drop this "greater than thou" attitude and calm down

[sawink]

Get to my level of education and financial status and then I won't need a high horse to look down upon you from. Drive with your little controller whilst waiting. (I don't mean your rumble stick) well your little appendage.

[PAPO1990]

you think level of education or financial status are at all relevant here? not that you have any idea of my education or financial status, unless you majored in electronics, mechanics or something similar get off your high horse or I'll get on mine and I will tear you to shreds so calm down, I thoroughly enjoy my wheel and I will continue to use it as I find it most enjoyable THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF GAMING

[TheCaptainWinkie]

To address the first reply..(oh and you too IndianSpeed) The Fanatec wheel on Fanetec..com (1 of 2 places it is sold) is $349.95 ,the one you are wrongly talking about is the 911 Turbo wheel, THAT IS NOT THE ONE IN THIS REVIEW!!! (as poorly researched and poorly filmed as this review is) That wheel is the first basic model produced, that has NO pedal, NO shifter(s) and is NOT compatible with the XBOX 360! Only the PC and PS3. I unlike this reviewer shift,use cockpit and clutch and OWN BOTH!

[PAPO1990]

the one in the review is the original 911 Turbo it does have pedals and shifters but you are correct about X360 compatibility, this was the only Porsche wheel available at the time when I made this review

[mrben809]

how much does that cost

[jomos100]

good mate

[mlgprotipsy]

great review man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yanni6556]

great review mate!

[AllBoutTheTech]

Is there one available that works both on PS3 and XBOX 360?

[stream0fspin]

911 turbo wheel works with xbox too

[PAPO1990]

no only the turbo S works with 360 and it still works with PC & PS3 (when I made the video the Turbo S was still in early development)

[stream0fspin]

so the 911 turbo s works with everything? then it is what i meant before :)

[Lctsforce]

Where did you buy It I wan't one.

[PAPO1990]

Dick Smith Electronics, but from what I hear Fanatec is going to be bring the gear over to Australia themselves soon so it might be worth waiting a little longer

[Lctsforce]

Any place In canada?

[StormTrooperSyndic]

0:50 totally true haha

[Vicious713]

@SCARFACE5991 i'm to lazy to pull out my ruler, but it's atleast a foot

[PAPO1990]

300mm (almost 12in) diameter, which is the largest on the market

[lyxell95]

what does the turbo s wheel cost?? =)

[RShift96]

ahh^^ .. and where you can get it ?

[RShift96]

where i get this wheel ? in germany ? :D

[RShift96]

911 Turbo "S" ? what is it ?? :D

[PAPO1990]

it's the version that supports the Xbox360

[RShift96]

is this porsche wheel for xbox360 too ?

[PAPO1990]

no you'll need the 911 Turbo "S" but it's almost identical

[angrydoug]

By the way, thanks for the thorough videos. I'm working on my wife to let me get a rig, and I've been showing her your vids. :)

[PAPO1990]

thanks, after all these people complaining about length, someone realises it couldn't have been sorted and still been so thorough, and I wish you luck :P

[angrydoug]

I'm confused. You had the shifter on the correct side! :)

[PAPO1990]

no I'm in Australia, our cars a right hand drive therefore the shifter is on our left

[angrydoug]

Yes Alex, I think I figured that out. I was just making a typical American corny joke. You know how Yanks are!

[PAPO1990]

lol yeh I do know how they are, that's why I thought you were serious :P

[FormulaOneObsessed]

How much of this wheels monumental price tag is to do with ithaving the porche logo on it? Cos this looks kinda cheap and low quality compared to the G25.

[uxcosmopolit]

porsch = (porsche) ?

[PAPO1990]

the e is silent

[atomdragon4]

Just because it's silent doesn't mean you could change the spelling.

Anyways, nice video.

[PAPO1990]

oh where did I spell it wrong? sorry, I thought you were referring to my pronunciation
