It was a pack in with the Ridge Racer Type 4 game, I think it was called the Jogcon or something.

Tony's right, but I always thought it was white. I've never used one, but they're supposed to be accurate for driving titles.

The PSX NeGcon was white, with an extremely rare black PS2 version that was supposedly released when RRV came out in Japan. Seen pictures, but never one for sale. I wish I could get one, but I digress.

The NeGcon is the best racing controller available outside of a good wheel. The twisting motion is surprisingly intuitive and it has mushy analog buttons that add to the experience as well. Any Ridge Racer fan NEEDS one of these.

As for the JogCon, the center wheel has the added bonus of force feedback. You are supposed to steer with both thumbs while holding the handles. Not as immersive as the NeGcon.
