I mean, that's to be expected, at least it sounds like it won't be a 40 point car week Series?

Yeah, only 20 points needed for new cars...

The hide and seek is 2 points. Only those who want to 100% the playlist will bother, I guess.


Edit: '22 WRX doesn't cause immediate posts. Unsurprising :D

Yeah, truth be told I'm glad they're not doing 40 point car weeks anymore. That got tiring real fast.

Anything interesting in the Hard-to-Finds? I'm still missing a Tsuru and a GTO Judge, those are my major missing rides.

Tsuru is one of the series rewards.

The Tsuru is 80 points this season isn't it?

Okay, so I'll have a golden opportunity to hit the Auction House and get mine back. I sold mine off to fund a binge there after I reinstalled the game.

But yeah, sounds like I was bang on the money with "performance hiding in plain sight" as the theme. Gotta say that wasn't too bad!

That rear diffuser makes the incredibly ugly '22 WRX look just mad enough to pass for me :eek:
 
That diffuser on the WRX is a bit much :lol:

As a side note I like the energy from that long haired dude, he knows what he's talking about.

That's not a good looking bodykit.

yeah, looking at internet they should have made it like this:

The chaser got a bosozoku inspired widebody kit i think? Very mild though compared to what bosozoku kit usually looked like. On the other hand I think the chaser should satisfied the guy who kept requesting for the chaser in various Forza social media comment Section.
 
Volvo isn't even the 400hp concept version and is just some lightly warmed up limited edition

The C30 Polestar feels like a model they had lying around when they modelled the other Polestar models years ago.


Edit: I get the impression that they deliberately made the 4 free cars less interesting than the Luca Camaro, possibly as part of the deal to get it?

Like I said, the theme of the update as a whole seems to be "Performance Hiding in Plain Sight." The cars don't look like much, but under the hood lies high performance. This should satisfy those disappointed by High Performance Dailies, for sure.
 
...Or in the case of the '22 WRX look so ugly that you can't believe it's not a (edit: never mind, the filter won't let me write Top Gear's favourite expression for a terrible car aimed at people who don't care about cars)

it did not suffice, dang the filter is good

But yeah, I'm not 100% sold by the WRX in general, it'll probably appease the track day bros but not me, at least not all the way.

It's actually a fair bit older, it's from a batch of 2013-model cars that were seemingly all planned for FM5, like the S4, RS7, R8, Fiesta ST, Clio RS, E63 AMG... and the Fit. The existence of the C30 was leaked fairly recently though, unlike the other cars around that time.

Oh, huh, they just finally found a place for it then? Makes sense, actually.

Dang it I missed the livestream this time around -.- Cool update though, and I really like the cars too. Come to papa :sly:
Mitsubishi Evo III: About. *******. TIME.
Subaru WRX: Same as above.
Toyota Chaser: Ok... can't say I expected this. The fact that it's a non-JZX100 Chaser is even more surprising. Maybe they struggled to find a clean one to scan IDK?? I do like it though, somewhat different from your usual JDM-fanfare which is fun to see.
Volvo C30 Polestar: Easily my favourite this update. Honestly, I'd been happy if they lazily added the 360-era C30 (I'm a bit of a C30 simp don't mind me) but I'll happily take having a newer, more detailed model of a better performing C30 too.
