Newegg has the wheel at a great price. After shipping and the extended warranty, it came out to $120. Logitech has a $20 MIR when you send them a copy of the receipt, the UPC, and a copy of the receipt when you buy GT4.

i'd rather get the bobear one with box frame rather than tube frame. the tube frame looks like the diameter is too small for longevity.

The steering wheels never reacted fast enough for me in GT3.

Like the time it took to go from full locking left, to full locking right, was slow. Not in turning the wheel, but just in the game actually recognizing the movement -- it was like slightly behind/delayed a little.

Similar to my Volkswagens Drive-by-Wire throttle....

Maybe they'll be better in GT4.
