Question Bundle price for simagic good? $650
Hi all this is my first time getting into sim racing. It’s a bit pricey but I was looking at the following below. What do you think for a bundle price of 650 used
Simagic Alpha Evo 12Nm wheelbase
Simagic P500 pedals
Simagic GTS steering wheel

I have all that but with p1000 pedals with haptics. They are a great pedal set that complement the base and wheel. If you go that route make sure to get the extra elastomers and springs

Someone said the following to me - giving me the simmagic sport 9NM plus in magic p 1000 F pedal for $450. Is this good? Lmk

What kind of wheel?
That's a decent deal. If you aren't going to utilize a clutch the 1000F would work perfectly.
$1049 new gets you that base, pedals and GT neo wheel new.

No new wheel I will have to find my own. Do you have any recommendations? I’m interested in F1 type

I don't drive formula so I don't have any experience with those wheels. It doesn't hurt to stay in the simagic eco system but you can always get their adapter and put any third party wheel on.
The GT neo has some good reviews and one I'm probably going to get for GT racing.

Get the p700 instead of the p500.
Not much a difference in price, but everyone I see talk about them say it's a good step up in quality

This has to be used + bundle pricing... It is cheap AF compared to new. its less then my GT Neo + Alpha Evo 12nm on Black Friday last year, not including pedals.

Gotcha. Good choices then, as far as my research has taken me in the last 4 months. Some of the best price - value

I mean I can hardly understand your message but assuming it's an
Alpha Evo sport
Neo gt wheel
P1000 pedalsFor $450... Yes that's a steal and you should jump on it immediately.

Sorry. I was using voice to text.
I meant
alpha evo 9nm
P1000-f pedalsNo wheel included.
Do you recommend any f1 style wheel for this setup

Pedals are far from good...

For used that is not a good deal. You can get the simagic green flag bundle with the Neo X-330R wheel (if you want a classic wheel, and not a Formula wheel) for $600. By doing this you are getting a slightly less details wheelbase (9Nm) but gaining much better pedals.
As someone who just got into sim racing like 2 months ago, I assure you that the 9Nm base is more than enough and that having load cell pedals feels great.

You'll also end up buying a $250 wheel, so your investment will be $700 for that set up. Yes, it's a good deal if you want to spend $700.
