Uber GT5p Racing Pod Rings In at $15,000

by Wade Larson on August 26, 2008 at 4:46 pm

So you like driving games, eh? Well, then you’ll probably find the images here are causing a strange sensation deep inside you. That, my friend, is want.

You see, this slick little aracade-style setup is the ultimate in Grand Turismo 5 Prologue gaming. It comes will all the extras and features you could ever want for a racing game except for tires and lots of open road.

A 40 inch screen flanked by a surround-sound set up is hooked up to a built-in PS3 with Logitech G25 wheel including pedals. Throw in a bucket seat and wrap the whole thing in a slick Plexiglas case and you’ve got yourself the most expensive gaming set up you can buy for a game that isn’t even out.

But you can be sure that when the game drops, this will be on every racers wish list. Right up there with a 2009 (insert fancy car name here). And it costs a measly $15,000!… which is considerably more than my 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Sierra. I wonder why that’s not in GT5?

Now all they need to do is hook up a toaster to drop rubber bands into and you’ll even be able to smell the burning rubber! Now that’s immersion.

Check our more images after the jump.
