I feel special I got the Crown Vic in the first week I had the game, but I feel silly I haven't used it.
For most duplicates, I've been putting them for auction at the minimum. If no one buys then I'll remove it. For the weekly prize cars I already had, I've auctioned them off later. I'll probably do that next week with the extra Ferrari I now have. I didn't win last week's '04 WRX, however, but got one at the auction earlier today. Odd, as many times as I've seen real life WRX drivers do obnoxious stuff I still like the cars.
And I spent a stupid amount of game credits upgrading the Hoonigan Porsche for the Roman Mile speed trap. (I felt less guilty ridiculously modifying an already ridiculously modified car). Finally got it. But I choose the Lotus to drive around for 15 miles. So I've got everything this week except for the two co-ops.

Here is the screenshot edited by myself. I made it to resemble the pre-race menu from Forza Horizon 1. Hope you guys like it!

Everytime I look at the Subaru car list I realize the SVX, Brat, and 360 were cut from this game. All 3 just seem like they'd be perfect for Horizon. The Brat especially as it would fill a void in Vans & Utility

Perhaps it is a common license for the Forza franchise, but SVX is listed on the FH4 license credits.
Maybe they will release it as an exclusive car in a future update. Like Z32.

It sucks that the SVX wasn't included, it was my favourite cruising car. Hope to see it in a future update, since the next Horizon won't be coming that soon.

Took a photo of the gorgeous Jaguar F-Type R! Another preview of an edited photo coming soon.

I like this car but the game needs an SVR. Badly.

I prefer the Project 7 over the SVR. But wouldn't mind the SVR to debut into Forza.

I doubt this is due to licencing issues, but it's definitely time and engine constraints.
Adding in a LEGO building mechanic that actually let you build and place stuff on the map, would be a massive new system, and probably require a significant amount of work on the game's basic underlying tech. Even stuff like the pre-baked lighting would be a nightmare, when dealing with a potentially infinite number of player creations.
I definitely would have appreciated a more comprehensive implementation of "LEGO" as a concept with the expansion, but once the rational side of my brain caught up with my imagination, I kinda realized that's probably too much to expect from a $15 expansion. So instead I look at it as a Forza expansion with a unique coat of paint and tone, and on that level, I think it was a good expansion.
The major issue will be the same as Fortune Island, which is that they don't have multiplayer hoppers for their expansion areas. It's absurd. You put in that awesome proper track, and then don't provide a way for people to group up and race on it? Come on.

This is the mindset I use going into each expansion and it has never failed me yet. With each one I don't expect it to be an entirely new game, for instance I didn't think of it as "a Lego game" but rather "Forza does Lego"

Just makes me want a proper Lego Racers reboot. Let me build my own bricky race cars dammit

That would prevent the game to be fully playable offline.
Also, that would mean that every active player have to query a time-check to game servers at the season switch time, all at once.
It's not that i really care but i didn't find that in the customization menu o_OOh my god, the 1996 Impala can have police lights (and yes they flash, I just have them off for the photo)!

The game is already not fully playable offline, with multiplayer portions included in the playlist. Anyways, if you're partaking in regular newly added content then you *should* have an internet connection.
I understand you may not always have an internet connection available, but it's kind of a result of the quasi game as a service approach taken in Horizon 4. It's like PG ended up halfway between a more traditional game and an online service, potentially foreshadowing the direction for Horizon 5 or Horizon Life or whatever they call it.

I laughed very much at the McLaren season championship.
I had a lead of at least 5 seconds against the drivaters, but with a long straight ahead of the goal, the 2nd place drivater performed anomalous acceleration like using rocket engine and was immediately behind me.
Many players already know that FH4 AI is doing rubber banding, and I won the race, so I'm not angry at this drivater's cheating.
However, cheating should be done a bit less noticeable.

The rubber banding is immense only when you escape their view on the minimap, so on small circuits where they never really do it's funny watching unbeatable AI lap up to 10s a lap slower
. My main complaint (besides having to do the trial events for cars..) is the drivatars, although they are much worse in FM7Edit: so after returning to FH after a while, I must say I really dislike this whole new season thing. I guess if it continues as is with previous 80% vehicles becoming simple championship cars I’ll be happy.
