Introducing the CSL Steering Wheel BMW!

Today at BMW Sim Live 2021, we revealed a new product in our expanding CSL Series. I’m very happy that we continue to grow our partnership with BMW. The introduction of the real steering wheel for the 2022 BMW M4 GT3 race car (Podium Series), and the GT2 V2 replica (ClubSport Series), and now the CSL Steering Wheel BMW at just 139.95 €/$ means there is an officially-licensed BMW wheel for every budget.
The new 300 mm diameter CSL wheel might look familiar to you but we did not just slap a BMW logo on a P1 wheel. BMW designed the beautiful graphics on the front plate and the same design continues seemlessly into the wheel grip texture. The copper/black colour scheme is stylish and classy and makes this wheel a real eye catcher.
The product is available for pre-order on the site now!

We're committed to developing high-performance sim racing hardware at affordable prices. The introduction of new, lower-priced wheels in our CSL range like this BMW and the upcoming P1 V2 (plus Black Friday Edition in limited quantities!), makes the move to direct drive technology more attainable for more people. These wheels combined with the CSL Pedals and CSL DD deliver the best value on the market for a race-ready direct drive setup.

I'm going to try and snag a black friday P1 wheel but if I'm not able to get one of those then I'm getting this one :) Thanks for offering wheels that won't break the bank.
It sounds great and all, and I do appreciate the price point, but... why all the orange? It really detracts from what is otherwise a pretty appealing bit of kit. To the point where I'd probably be willing to pay more for something that isn't quite so garish. Shame you guys aren't offering any other styles/ colors.
Not includung the discontinued P1 rims, this is the third version of this wheel. They have the P1 v2, the WRC and now this rim, which was stylized by BMW. All 3 have different designs on them, and if you find the BMW rim to be too distracting, get one of the other designs.
I like this wheel, but I already have the WRC rim, so I'll have to pass on it. I would love to see BMW jazz up the GT2 v2 rim though. I'd get one in a heart beat.
Why so ugly? Who chose such an awful design?
The WRC wheel is priced $60 more than this one. The P1 v2 is comparable, and would probably be the one I'd go for. I do wish there was an option for a P1-style wheel with alcantara grips though, like the old discontinued Xbox one, as I prefer that over rubber or leather.
The WRC is Alcantara
BMW made this truly stunning, beautiful, gorgous, jaw dropping, awesome design.
True, but again, it's more expensive. If I'm not mistaken, the usual markup for an Xbox- compatible wheel over its PC/PS counterpart has been $30. Difference in price between this BMW and the WRC is $60. I'm curious as to why.
Isn't the Alcantara more expensive than rubber?
$30 for Xbox compatibility and $30 for fake suede. :-)
Don't forget the screws that are holding the paddles on. Those ain't free.
XD
Thanks Thomas. I understand your irony :)
Who says the Germans dont have a sense of humor!
The price is fantastic on this but it's just too beautiful for me. I think I would buy it if it was blacked out like the original xbox one.
Also Thomas please consider a new Clubsport GT3 cut-out rim. The McL V3 in a nicer shell, with thumb encoders, magnetic not clunky shifters, and a style similar to the new (super ugly) formula V2.5,
🙏
Why no love for Xbox with any of these new, awesome wheels? Please bring us into the mix!
