I live in the UK and I am going on holiday to the USA this Monday coming and I am looking at getting a PS3 Racing Wheel while I'm over there to bring back here, I already own a DFGT but I would ideally like to get either a Fanatec 911 Carrera/Turbo or GT2 or Logitech G25 or G27 but how much cheaper on average are they over there?
 
Well sadly, the Logitech G25/G27 are pretty much hard to find due to the fact you wont see them on the shelves as much anymore. If your lucky, you can get used ones. As for Fanatec wheels, you wont find them at stores. It'll be a miracle if you find a used Fanatec wheel though.
 
The only thing that you will find on store shelves that is any better than what you have is a T500RS and it will run $600, unless the retailer is offering some discount.

It is possible that a G27 might be available, but most report having to order one online as stores never seem to re-stock them.

yep, I had to order mine off Logitech site and I had to wait a little over a month until they got them in stock.
 
If you go to a Fry's you may be able to talk a manager into $500 for the T500 as it was just on sale for that price. Sale ended Thursday.

How you gonna transport it back? You'll pay up the ass bringing it back on the plane. It's pretty heavy...

A T500RS is a little out of my price range, i'll probably only have between $100-$200 👍
 
I don't think you will find one that works for you in the USA (110 volt system) unless you want to buy a power converter.

I'd be happy to buy one :)

Check to see how much they are in the UK before coming to the USA. Also you can check INTERNET web sites just find the zip code to the city you're going to, you might find a store that has one in stock.
 
The Logitech G27 is going for $235USD. I think it has been on sale recently for around $200USD in another thread.
