The garage view of the CGT looks just as bad as the one from Hock. The vent looks non existent, it is the angle of the view though. Just saying that pic you posted did it no justice. If you look long and hard, the sideskirts look a bit big as well, they look as if they are closer to the ground then the bumper. Odd thing though it looks normal on the side view in the list at the bottom of that pic. Maybe its just the angle and lighting? dunno.

The vent should be even more pronounced from that angle. It would be almost nonexistent if it was directly from the side.

Good to see an actual in game photo of whats wrong with it. Was hoping that fender would look different in game, guess not :( That vent is just odd. The part of the body going into the vent looks odd and flat. Wonder how they skipped over things so noticeable like that.

The problem it's in the lighting, not the model. There's nothing wrong with the model.

Yes there is, maybe its not major but there is. The vent(like ive said multiple times) is off. Its not hard to see either, its easily noticeable.

That GT2 is just amazing. So sad that i wont be able to try these out :( Maybe i should pick up another copy of FM4.

The vent is not off, its the light coming inside that makes the vent seem narrower than it actually is.

If i can get a picture of a car thats not black, it clearly stands out.

Edit. actually someone already posted a pic

The FM4 pic looks way off compared to real life? In the first pic the vent should be more visible because of the angle. The real pic is even more angled then the game pic and you still see a clear open space. If it is the lighting then i would gladly retract my statement.
 
Yeah. I know DG said no more porsches after this pack, but it just makes sense that they would throw in some more.

I'm going to have to roll with everyone else here on this one. For one thing the two car in the photo and the one in the "buy car" forza pic are at two different angles as can clearly be seen but more over I definitely see this as a lighting issue. Give me a camera , a few well placed lights and I could EASILY get the car in the photo to look just like the one in Forza with no problem. What you're seeing is not a modelling issues as it's a lighting issue. We all knew early on that the IBL lighting feature was not perfect and this is an example of it at it's worse.

Infact I think I know what the problem is. It seems some "parts" in Forza world are not capable of making shadows. I know some spoilers don't and other parts of certain cars. The issue here , I believe, is the vent part of the car is actually not part of the car or rather it's not capable of making a shadow. The side of the car door to front quarter panel leading up to the tire is being lit as if the vent part isn't there.

That's what I'm seeing from the little bit I have to go by. Have to wait till I get the content to be sure
 
How do I add MS points. I don't want to be taken from the in game option to buy to add points. I may get charged 1600.

Also history dictates that it appears in the marketplace before its updated in game options.
VIP have to purchase from in game to save a few points.
