* Six-speed shifter with push-down reverse gear
Provides a more realistic driving experience with manual transmissions -
allows the user to easily select the appropriate gear for any corner.
* Dual-motor force feedback system
Two motors for increased force strength, single-reduction anti-backlash
gearing system for decreased noise, smoother, more accurate steering,
and higher force feedback fidelity.
* 900 Degrees of Wheel Rotation
2.5 turns lock-to-lock - just like most real cars.
* 11", leather-wrapped wheel rim with stainless steel spokes
Real leather and a wider diameter than previous Logitech wheels for a
more lifelike racing experience.
* Sequential shift mode
For games that do not support six-speed mode, the shifter can easily be
changed into sequential mode.
* Stainless steel gas, brake, and clutch pedals
Gas, brake, and clutch pedals with distinct resistances. The addition of
a clutch pedal allows for advanced driving techniques such as heel-and-
toe downshifting.
* Leather-wrapped shift knob
* Exclusive carpet grip system

Comments about Logitech Logitech 963416-0403 G25 Racing Wheel (logitech 9634160403):

This has to be the best steering wheel for the money. I had a Logitech Driving Force Pro before this wheel. The G25 is quieter, has better feedback, and is an overall higher quality wheel. Everything is much more thought out and well designed. It might have been nice to have a few more buttons on the wheel and the shifter feels a little cheap, but considering the price it's a great value.

Comments about Logitech Logitech 963416-0403 G25 Racing Wheel (logitech 9634160403):

I love everything about it. Only thing I would have done if I were logitech is to put the same amout of buttons on this wheel that they have on the MoMo. Ther are a whole lot of controls on the shifter console, but six would have been nice on the wheel. The pedals a great and they calibrate perfectly. Smooth and comfortable. A must have for any race sim driver.

 
Shift your Sim Racing Into High Gear

Comments about Logitech Logitech 963416-0403 G25 Racing Wheel (logitech 9634160403):

Strengths:
Precise pedal modulation and steering. Clutch and shifter make things so much more fun and realistic. The smell of leather that greets your nose as soon as you open the box.

Weaknesses:
Having all the cables connect underneath the wheel instead of in back makes setting up and taking down the wheel more difficult. Clutch pedal is too close to brake pedal. No 7th gear.

Summary:
The overall quality, smoothness, and feel of the wheel and pedals is impressive. The shifter works great as a 6-speed. Using it in sequential mode is a little awkward, because, unlike the MOMO Force Feedback Racing Wheel, it does not automatically spring back to the center; you're better off using the paddle shifters for sequential shifting. It is much easier to modulate the throttle and brake with the resistance these pedals offer as compared to the Logitech MOMO Force Feedback. The 900 degree steering gives a lot of flexibility in adjusting the turning ratios. There are a few minor annoyances: I would prefer that the clutch pedal be a little bid further away from the brake pedal. Also, the front edges of the paddle shifters are smooth, while the back edges, which your fingers actually touch have a rougher edge. A 7th gear and maybe a couple more buttons

on the steering wheel would have been nice too.

This is overkill for the casual driver (the MOMO force feedback would be a better choice for them), but for those who spend a lot of time with driving/racing games and especially the more realistic driving and racing sims I highly recommend this. The best you can buy short of an ACT-LABS RS 2006 system.
