Help w/ sim equipment decision... 3 choices

[5-Card-Major]

Entry level... G29... Low/moderate cost, no pain

Enthusiast... Fanatec ClubSport wheelbase v 2.5, CSL Elite rim, CSL Elite LC pedals. @$950. Ouch...

I spent WHAT... SimXperience AccuForce Pro V2 ('Your way'), Fanatec CSL LC pedals. @$1,230. Endoscopy

I agree with this choice, better pedals vs DD wheel. Driving Experience Delta will be greater than the BD wheel to DD wheel lesser pedals IMHO
PS In regards to reliability, I've had my CSW v2 for 4-5 years before upgrading to DD2, still have my V3 CSP (Updated with Performance Kit since I like to drive with shoes) and NO ISSUES. Just remember, almost all people will complain if something is wrong or did not meet expectations, but very few if any will praise anything if everything is working OK.

Thanks.

RE// Your last sentence... exactly what I said in my earlier post...human nature. We all love to complain, but less often praise.

I started another thread in a different forum section (Sim Racing Essentials/Sim Racing Hardware), listing items from Fanatec, and asking for comments (not sure about some of the items)... thanks.

In this context the Fanatec is hopelessly overpriced. The DD wheel just for 27% more is a non-brainer.

He has no cockpit, so any DD wheel is a waste since he plans on clamping the wheelbase to his desk.
