July DLC

[Populuxe]

I'm in love:
1973 AMC Gremlin X - I'm an AMC fan, so this makes me happy. I'd be happier with an AMX or first gen Javelin, but I'll take a Gremlin and enjoy it.
1952 Hudson Hornet - The Fabulous Hudson Hornet. Nothing more need be said.
1954 Jaguar XK120 - Simply beautiful.
1956 Lotus Eleven - I'm loving that more sports-racers of the 1950s are being added to the game. It was a great era for sports car racing.

I'm in like:
1998 Aston Martin V8 Vantage V600 - As someone else pointed out, it's not terribly pretty or svelte, but it's a proper man's car.
1995 RUF CTR2 - More RUF insanity.
2012 Spyker C8 Aileron - I'm usually not a fan of supercars, but there's something about the Spyker that I really like.

I'm in meh:
2011 McLaren 59 GT MP4-12C GT3
2012 Ascari KZ1R
2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG
I doubt I'll even buy them, much less race them.

The Spyker's not a supercar. It's just a Luxury Sports Car like the Mercedes.

Wow, still pumping them out... I would think they would be done by now. T10 delivers again. I have to say they have pretty much mastered the DLC reception this time around for FM4. A lot of variety too... I like the fact that each DLC has a car that compliments a rivalry with a car already in the game or another DLC. BTW, Hudson Hornet... damn, awesome.

They way we've been getting DLC, compared to another franchise, is almost unfair. Even though we could argue that we need more tracks

 

[SuperShouden]

I still think that GT5 and Forza are about even on DLC if 1 track counts for 10 cars...well...maybe not quite even, but...still. GT5's been bumping out a lot of tracks while Forza's been focused on the cars...but they're REALLY awesome cars, thus far. I mean, there hasn't really been a DLC that I didn't like so far...unlike with Forza 3 which had a few "WTF? Why would I pay for this?" DLCs.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

Oh, man. The cars in this pack are simply amazing. But I especially can't wait wait to get my hands on the RUF and McLaren.

Agree to an extent. I would certainly love more tracks, but it doesn't, imo, even up due to the tracks because of the car lists, they are different. The tracks are great... even this new ps2 up-res of Motegi is acceptable, the quality in comparison to Spa non withstanding. But PD's lack of new content in it's carlist doesn't give the experience the justice it deserves.

Agree entirely on the DLC though, FM3's was very hit or miss for many. This time they managed to make the packs very desirable, somehow

Feeling well chuffed with the RUF CTR2! I was concerned that T10 wouldn't make good use of the RUF license, but I'm pleased to see they've added both the CTR Yellowbird and now the newer CTR2. I hope it has some nice aero options, would love to create something like this hillclimb car

I'd also love to see the BTR2 aero, if not the BTR2 itself added later on

Apart from that, there's not a massive amount that appeals to me, the Jaguar is gorgeous and you can bet I'll be driving the Hudson Hornet and the Lotus Eleven, also I bet you'll be able to get some crazy power out of the Aston Martin. But to be honest the newer cars don't really float my boat as much as the other ones in this pack

 

[shawtyoner]

Jag, Aston, Ruf, Lotus. Thank you!

 

[campinkonvict]

Nice pack overall, could care less for the Hudson and Gremlin. Besides those two eyesores, I'm happy. Very much looking forward to driving the Ruf, McLaren and Ascari.

 

[imported_phillkillv2]

I'm surprised no one has touched on the fact that the C8 Aileron is in the TG book that comes with the LCE.

I actually thought about that alot.

Turn10 have been quite good as of late regarding aero options on the DLC cars so it wouldn't suprise me if the hillclimb kit was in

CTR, CTR2, hopefully CTR3?

You should put my Paint and Tune on there

 

[StoneyNUFC]

A very good design, will pick the tune up 👍

You should do this design though if you can http://www.autowallpaperhd.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/mclaren-mp4-12c-gt3-2012-wallpaper-2.jpg

No ones done it yet

After a quick drive with each car in stock form the RUF CTR2 has to be the most fun to drive car I've found so far, I always thought this was 4WD (it is in GT5 I think?) so was surprised when it started sliding, and then would grip again just as you need it which gave a fantastic feeling.

 

[VXR]

Customers were offered the choice of RWD or 4WD (3 types of 4WD were offered, in fact), so the car T10 modeled must have been RWD.

 

[Im_Lukas]

Thanks, I only really know of RUF from Gran Turismo and theirs had always been 4WD so I was just a little confused. I think I prefer it in RWD form now after trying it out.

In the teases and articles leading up to the release, they mentioned the car being AWD.
Also, how about the forza rear wing and the Lotus debacle? Good stuff.

 

[VXR]

They did indeed, but someone on FM.net found out that customers had the choice of drivetrains.

The wing on the Lotus looks poor. It's almost as if they wanted to make one that would shape around the hump, but thought it would achieve the same effect if they threw an ordinary one on it.

The body mods in this pack are a huge letdown compared to previous packs.

 

[ALAN ULTIMATE]

As much as I love all things RUF, T10 should've modelled the CTR2 Sport version, and thrown in an AWD option for good measure

FM5 needs to have full racing modifications & widebody kit options etc!

Just look at those curves

I agree with the point about body options, but personally I prefer the slim body version that's in the game. To each his own I suppose?

That said, the cars in this last pack really don't have many body mods and that's a real pity...

TBH, I'm just glad that the CTR2 finally made it into the game along the the CTR.

Now where's that CTR3

 

[benzoboy]

Kind of disappointed in the CTR2, no body kits or anything like that? Shame, especially when the recent DLC packs have been so good

 

[SlipZtrEm]

I could be wrong, but I believe the Lotus is the first car to get under 1000lbs? With carefully selected parts, mine is at 999lbs... With enough power mods to bring it to C425, it's hilarious to drive.

 

[imported_phillkillv2]

I want this carpack SO MUCH.
