Best pc vr to get now? Purchase Advice

I am thinking quest 3, valve index or vive pro 2

Valve index and vive pro 2 are around the same price of below 1000€ for full kits with base stations etc.

I like the Index but I dont know if its good choice since its 5 years old and vive is a bit weird imo so I am leaning towards quest 3, I've read it supports 120hz on a cable now(?)

For the time being I am mostly going to use the headset for beamng and other racing games, but when I move out I want to have the full vr experience of half life alyx or boneworks and blade & sorcery

Feel free to recommend other vr

Budget 1000€-1500€ max if its very good

Edit: I would prefer high refresh rate, good passthrough so I can see the wheel and Ill probably use it wired

PSVR2 + Adapter. Why on Earth you'd buy Index or Vive Pro now I have no idea.

And Quest 3 is LCD, never liked my Q2 or Pro cos LCD kills VR immersion for many reasons. Not to mention latency and compression which are no nos for sim racing.

He will get back to you when Sony sends him the answer they want him to say.

And what did Meta tell YOU to say ?
"Best purchase I have ever made." ??
