OMG PLEASE TELL ME THAT IS REAL!
AND PLEASE TELL ME IT'S AS GOOD AS A PWTS/GT2 OR BETTER!
AND PLEASE TELL ME IT'S NOT GOING TO TAKE 3-6 MONTHS FOR ME TO GET ONE!!
sorry for the caps... after seeing MS's offical Ushaped double ended dildo with buttons 'wheel' I was about to break my Forza disks in half but this... this might just be what I've been looking for

T.O hold onto that pwts. Something tells me that this is an entry level wheel similar to the dfgt so that the less hardcore of hardcore players can get a good wheel for a low price. When you conisder howmany people say "if there was a wheel like the dfgt for the xbox i would buy one and forza" Well, I have a very strong feeling we are now looking at it 
~edit~
Looks like a smaller scaled down version of their new "high end" wheel

Except for the little problem that nothing about that wheels says "entry level".

Hotlink fail, D. 
Since virtualR killed the hotlink.
The article showing the new high end wheel can be found here
http://www.virtualr.net/brand-new-fanatec-wheel-spotted/
note that the housing of the forza wheel is about half to 3/4 the size of the new high end one. Id say it will be the dfgt equiv, the gt2 will remain and be the mid range wheel (g27 equiv if you will) and the "new high end wheel" shown at virtual R will be to take on the t500

No, the housing of the forza one is MUCH smaller. the clear window is not as big, the flat bit between the clear window and the edge of the housing is about half the size. In comparison its tiny.
If you think that housing is the same size as the one with the audi wheel on virtualR you are dreaming.

Shaun Cole is either in heaven or pissed.
To me atleast, when you use the people in both pictures as a scale, and take into account that the rim size on the forza wheel is much smaller...the housing looks to be much smaller on the forza wheel. I guess time will tell. But I dont see them releasing a super high end wheel on the xbox that there is next to no demand for,especially when people are screaming left right and centre for a dfgt equivilant on the xbox
~edit~
that said, madcatz are releasing a new entry level ffb wheel for the xbox, so who knows. maybe this could be the t500rs of the xbox, I know that fanatec will make a better wheel if thats what they are aiming for.

This looks anything but an entry level wheel. Are you all missing the carbon fiber panel and gear indicator / speedometer in the middle of the wheel? Money, money, money.
What is 17,000EUR equal to in US dollars? (Production cost).

To be honest, I was hoping it would be more of an entry-level wheel. I really wasn't looking to drop several hundred quid for a wheel. Something in the DFGT price range and of similar functionality would be exactly what I wanted. If it's $300, $400, or $500 I will just have to settle for my Microsoft wheel.

Absolutely beautiful and with a analog stick for smooth viewing! I also like the fact that it isn't branded to a particular manufacturer. Just imagine a clubsport shifter too, could we be so lucky?!?

Judging by the ISR thread it will be cross-platform.👍
Won't commit to buying it until I get a chance to play F4 but if it's good I'll spring for a good cross platform wheel. Would be nice not having to switch between my DFGT and my old 360 wheel.
