This is the Porsche 911 GT2 RS of Xbox Controllers

If you’ve spent the last week or so tearing up the Forza 7 pre-release demo and are twiddling your thumbs waiting for the full version to drop on October 3rd, we have some good news for you.

Custom gaming controller company Scuf has partnered with Forza and Microsoft to develop the Porsche 911 GT2 RS-inspired Xbox Elite controller. The gamepad is covered with the same Alcantara material found in the cabin of the GT2 RS and has some other unique features such as a Porsche badge, a ‘911 GT2 RS’ logo and Forza logos.

“The Scuf Forza Elite features fine attention to detail, hand-built at our facilities in Atlanta where it is geared and tested for performance,” Scuf co-founder Duncan Ironmonger said in a statement. “In 2011, we challenged how controllers were built, creating a new market for high-performance controllers by adding features to increase hand use and improve gameplay. This new limited-edition controller continues that tradition. It’s a tribute to fans of Forza, Porsche, and Scuf. It could not have become a reality without these three premium brands coming together.”

The controller will go on sale on October 7th – shortly after Forza 7’s arrival. It will retail for a very expensive $299.95, but it doesn’t stop there. You can also order the controller as a bundle, which comes with interchangeable parts and a 911 GT2 RS scale model and will cost you $365. The controller will be limited to just 2,000 units, while Scuf will make just 500 of the bundles. At that price point, you should just buy a force feedback wheel. You’ll be thankful you did.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
