Aha, that makes sense. Are these rewards random on these series 7 events? I wonder why it was a reward for something like that, if it was a barn find.

I guess they want you to diversify and try other cars. I'd be more annoyed were the current car tab more than a single right button click away.

That's a really odd choice then to put barn finds into the Wheelspins or as a community-race reward if the "story line" of the game will eventually give it to you.

On that note, if you search for barn finds in the auction house, the results are all barn finds from FH4.

Perhaps in various places in the game the car categories are a mix of the old FH4 classifications.
Remember the rules specified in last week's Seasonal Playground were for vehicles in the Offroad category?
The "Offroad" category in FH5 is now the category for competition off-road machines like the Bronco R and Mini X-Raid.
However, the rental car provided for this event was a Ford F-150 Raptor, which existed in the same category in FH4.
This vehicle is classified as a "Pickup and 4x4" category in FH5, so it is not originally eligible to participate.

Is there a reason why Horizon 5 isn’t showing up on the rewards page?

The connection was awful yesterday, got eliminated from the Eliminator due to disconnections twice, Arcade still works only half the time. Sometimes I'm alone, sometimes it disappears from the map, sometimes it just doesn't start. Even when everything works right and there are people, we are not fast enough to complete more than two rounds :/
By the way, can someone point me to where I can receive gifted cars? I got a notification that I got one and something about barns. In the barn that I already found I can only send cars.

There'll be a gift box icon on your map where one of the barns is, you have to go to that specific one to pick it up. Keep in mind that if you don't go get it before exiting the game (or possibly just wait too long, I haven't tested this too much yet), it'll be reassigned to someone else.

Technically, the servers have been down on FH2 and FM6 for weeks, and dont seem likely to be restored (support queries are shut down with a standard response) and FM5 servers are gone as of last week.
So the only rewards you can actually get now are on FM7, FH3 and FH4, up to mid 2022.
Unless one of the others comes back online. However, I am assuming that due to the need to source servers for the number of people using FH5 (and FH4), that any change to other games is unlikely before then.
I can understand and accept to an extent why the need has arisen - after all it is unreasonable to expect servers for old games to stay up forever. And it's much better that the new game has stable online. Erm, well it doesn't yet but it might have at some point 😂
Incidentally if you have bought paid DLC on FM6, there are posts on the official forum suggesting that you cannot use this as the game just redirects you to the Store which says you already own the content. Not sure how that one falls legally 🤔
But for FH5 onwards, the rewards system is gone. But has been replaced by the cars gifted when you begin the game. Erm, gifted when you reboot the game. Erm, apart from the McLaren P1 which isn't working currently.... 😂
I wish the only "bugs" in this game were the Vochos driving around the map...

I was just gifted a Fairlady someone used on last week's playlist. But I already had one so immediately put it back in the barn. An SLS AMG I won failed to sell so I gifted that to a new player too. I'm ashamed to say I used the wheelspin on it already though. 
At least they're not all Jeeps...

That looks fantastic. Even moreso because recently I’ve been using the Supra GT500 in Forza Motorsport 4 with the original livery that inspired yours.

They should still be able to use the wheelspin. Car perks reset now when cars are sold or gifted.I was just gifted a Fairlady someone used on last week's playlist.

I agree they could easily have switched places. But to be honest the muscle memory of "right bumper, A" to select the current car is not a big deal, so I'm fine with it now.
Besides, sometimes interesting recommended cars pop up.

Was anyone else sweating with the seasonal championship with A-class modern sport cars on highly skilled difficulty? Especially the scramble circuit around Teotihuacan.
1) First try being lazy in my starter Supra A90 => fail 😒
2) Buying a stock Audi TT TS (which is AWD) and using it stock => fail 😲
3) (getting annoyed now) Modifying my A90 into this AWD HKS rally monstrosity => a lot of sweating and rewinding but eventually got 1st place on all 3 races.
This is the absolutely first time I ever had to tune or modify a car to get 1st place on a highly skilled championship... those drivatars on the Teotihuacan scramble circuit were on steroids. Now I like a good driving challenge but this sure was beyond the limits of being fun.
If anyone else struggles with this, I recommend after starting the championship near Teotihuacan to close the UI and first do the other 2 trail races, they are easier. Get 1st place on both those and do the Teotihuacan scramble last.
Here is the share code for my rally A90 I did it with: 144 154 993 (A 731 since it’s for singleplayer anyway). Good to know: it has a rather weak straight line speed on tarmac but it’s really great on dirt.
