Not a crazy cheap price, but about as good as it ever gets for a brand new one.
If it's been on your radar, it might be time to pull the trigger.

Or a good time to buy a spare. :)

Yeah and then factor in the cost of a Playseat. :lol I lucked out and just picked one up off of Craigslist along with a Playseat for $240. Kind of disappointed that certain games (Blur) aren't supported and no Xbox support without hardware that may or may not work like the Titan or XCM-F1 which isn't available and/or expensive if it is. Not sure about Xbone or PS4 compatability either. Still fun but glad I didn't buy in at full price, wouldn't have been worth full retail. Below are the list of games supported.

Thats why I dont regret my Fanatec wheel purchase.
I wish I had scratch to spare, I'd totally get a G27 wheel for when/if I ever build an arcade racer cab, but for now Im content to to play arcade games in my sim chair set up

I've never played Blur, but if the issue is that the game only supports xinput controllers you can workaround it with x360ce.
It will even support rumble. (no true ffb, as xinput doesn't support anything but rumble)
I've gotten this to work on a couple games. The game FUEL has the direct input z axis hardcoded though, even though the game doesn't support direct input controllers (like the G27).
Unless I hold the clutch pedal down exactly halfway, my vehicle goes in reverse. I haven't given up though. Whenever I get around to putting a driving cab back together, I plan to wire in a switch and resistor to the clutch pedal.

I own Blur - but I haven't tried it with my G27. Mostly because it requires the CD to be in the drive to play it. I almost threw it in the trash when I learned that. I'm sure there is a NoCD crack out there, but the DRM crap turned me off so bad I haven't loaded it up since.
