There are no mounts in the game that have the perks the Celestial Steed has. For the dollar amount of what works out to roughly an 45min to 2 hrs of RL pay, depending on your job, versus the time spent in game...it's easily justifiable.

Unless I'm mistaken don't you need to have a mount already and riding skill before making use of this DLC mount? It is essentially a "paint job" for whatever you already have.

Now if this mount was already in the game, could be used alone, and had it's own high "speed", but it took a significant amount of time and effort to attain, then and only then would I say this is worth $25.

The "perks" you allude to here must only be the fact that you don't have to pay $25 more than once. Quite the deal!
