Hello gents, I build these bespoke.
I have been a Porsche fan since, well since a long long long time ago. I've spent a little time and developed a simulator which I think is the most realistic in the world in private hands. It is a 996 GT3 1 t0 1 scale.
I have a small Porsche museum in the room of which the centerpiece is my Wilco Michaels diorama.
I will be refining this prototype for sale at a point in the future. Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions.

Much less than a CXC or SimRoom but way more immersive. I've owned or tested pretty much every simulator out there and this one is the most realistic by far.
I'm working now on buttoning up a manufacturing process and a kit process. Maybe a couple of months. This is my personal prototype. I've taken everything I've learned sim racing over 12 years and tried my best to bring the greatest realism to my home.
I'll have options with motion and without. Tactile, telemetry screen in the nav position. Basically anything you want. Only limit is your wallet. But that being said, I'm trying to make this an option for the average person. You'll be surprised hopefully.
Also, despite the looks, it doesn't take much space. I purposefully put this in the smallest room in my home in order to keep the design compact this room is only 9x12 and there is enough room left over for another simulator on the other end of the room.
I'm really excited, this has been 3 years of trial and error testing to reach this point. The most realistic simulator you can buy regardless of cost. Also, you can have a co-driver for rally games or just for fun. It's a two person chassis. :]

I was privy to trying out the new Sony VR (Project Morpheus) Goggles coming out in October ($499) with Project Cars using the Logitech wheel and pedals and it was just amazing.. Very immersive experience. As others have suggested this VR stuff is the future and it's just about here. Finally. Check this out too:

Hell yeah Mayaman!! This one was a long time in the making, congrats!
I'm surprised you didn't go with the OMP Superturismo and MANU shifter for the full Cup car vibe.
How much more of an improvement is the Black Pearl + GT1080 vs. the Qumi Q2 + white board? Do you think the Simpit is worth the cost?

Switch, I don't like the black pearl at all. Its too damn dark. I'm painting it with screen projection paint. You'd need a 15,000 lumen beemer to get what you want with that darkness.

Wouldn't you be better off selling the Black Pearl and then putting your own material over the Icarus apparatus?
