I do not go on video game forums for a reason. They help you spend your money QUICKER than on your car mods!! As soon as I found out the REAL GT5 was coming out a few months ago, I pre-ordered it. Getting the collector's edition on Wednesday! Boy I am excited! Then I was going to buy the Logitech Driving Force GT. I was thinking, for around $100, not too bad. Then researched more and found the Logitech G27 is the newest and came with a 6 speed transmission with a clutch! That costs $300 plus tax and shipping. Searching more through Logitech, amazon, craigslist, ebay, etc, I was trying to find a better deal. Hate buying things at full retail especially finding out Best Buy had a $150 deal for the G27 a few months back which I totally didn't know about. Found this: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/349/7077 20% off when you trade you your items. I found a brand new corded Logitech mouse sitting around. hehehe. Now I also need the get the gear shift. And then the playseats gaming seat to hold the steering wheel and pedals at http://www.videogamechairs.com/video...ogamechair.cfm with coupon code TG-7444 for additional 10% and includes free shipping. Still trying to see which chair I like the most. I might want it in Alcantara. AND THEN also gotta add the gear shift holder from amazon for another $40. I might end up bringing this to my shop and play everyday! LOL.<BR nodeIndex="2">

Logitech is great with their customer service, so no worries there.

A buddy of mine is pretty crazy about Gran Turismo and actually built a chair himself. Now that's what I call dedication!
