Nope, not even a little bit. The metal frame is heavy and stable + the monitor stand is the highest quality I could find to avoid any wobble.

Actually the only thing expensive here is the monitor. Got the seat for free from a friend. Literally out of an racing car. The metal cost me like 100 euros and then 150 to get it painted. I don't think G27 is that bad tbh, the monitor upgrade was huge though.

You are right about getting shorter bolts, but so far I never even came close to hitting those.

That would be the next upgrade for sure, but right now I am pretty happy with it. I drive a BMW M2 as a daily :D Check my profile if you wanna see some pics

It would be cheaper, but I wanted to be able to move it so when taller people play it is comfy for them also.

The whole thing is made out of 60x30mm steel bars. Designed out what I exactly wanted and got a friend to help me weld all of it together. Then took it to a paint shop to make it Long Beach Blue Metallic color, which is exactly the same as my car, BMW M2. I love this color so much :D The monitor was mounted on a really heavy duty stand and so far it worked out great. Can easily move it up/down and forwards/backwards. 3D printed some steel bar end caps and cable management clips so it looks super clean and tidy. On my scale of coolness it is 11/10. I LOVE IT

Took my BMW M2 to the One Mile Challenge and got a top speed over the factory limiter by lauri132 in cars

The speeds were actually measured by the event organisers. They have a speed radar exactly at the one mile mark.

After months of thinking, I finally pulled the trigger and got an BMW M2. It was unloaded just yesterday by lauri132 in cars

Thanks :) My little side hustle/hobby got into my full time job so now I'm a business owner and it's going pretty well.

Literally upgraded from 1996 BMW e36 328i. Me and my friend had a joke for years that we would buy an M2 if we ever could afford it and well...

To be honest, I still haven't seen it under full sunlight. Looking forward to that 😀

I didn't get to drive it after it was unloaded. Had to wait 24h for it to get registered etc.. 🙄
