It's not common to see an actual car manufacturer create official accessories for gaming consoles, but Porsche has decided to try branch out and apply their design skills to create a steering wheel for consoles. Porsche has created something awesome! This is a fully "licensed, to-spec reproduction", which means that the 6+1 gear stick, and the wireless pedals are as authentic as the ones inside a genuine Porsche 911. It is all wireless, has a 100-hour battery life, it works on PS3 and PC. It will be available later this year for $350.
