Why is it so expensive? Looks great but I am not rich.
Like it has already been said, it looks quite nice and steady, compact, but the monitor mounting system is not even included by default. Therefore, 915€ or whatever price is too high. The seat looks nice… but it’s not even sure it’s that comfortable. Looking at the photo, it doesn’t seem like a high standard.
It looks nice, but not >$1000 nice. It’s great because it doesn’t have the center post though.
Looks fantastic. Too bad about the price…
Way too expensive… I’ll just find another one.
My home made rig using wood I already had and using an arm chair I also already had only cost me time and a few wood screws but made a huge improvement on my driving and immersion feeling.:D
It does not look very sexy, but is very comfortable and build just for me, lucky for me, there is never any one interested in looking at me while I am driving a pretend pixels car on a screen.;)

What happened to the modest pricing of an Rseat rig. In 2012 a rSeat RS EVO V3 was $549. This rig is $1249, and it looks like another $149 for just a shifter bracket. Inflation is one thing, but over a 100% increase in 4 years is pricing most racers out of the market.
Yeah I think as PC and sim racing gets popular, new things pop up with inflated prices. I wouldn’t bother with this rig, you can buy used that will last you easily and comes around a good $1000 less.
