You are expecting a lot of very obscure cars here.

I get you want more cars from your country, but you're expecting too much. Australian cars in Forza have gone from basically none to several announced per week in the car reveals. As it is Australia is the most relevant manufacturer country in the game.
 
Gran Turismo and Forza don't have obscure ones?

Dodge Omni GLHS in Forza 4.

Who really outside of North America (apart from enthusiasts) even knew that car existed? Pretty obscure I'd say.

EDIT: Plus I wasn't specifically stating I want those I was answering what other Aussie cars besides 'Commodores and Falcons' there are.

I'm just saying expect the popular additions first.
 
Hence why I said "Hoping there's still lots of Aussie cars to come" obviously implying I am aware more 'obscure' Aussie cars may be coming later.

Paint it black and add some brownish ornaments and you'll get a hearse.
 
Agree with you on the Valiant Charger, but I'll pass on the rebranded Chevrolet, Daewoo and Isuzu crapboxes, thank you. They might be obscure, but they're not cool or fun. The Joss was in FM3 and FM4 and it wasn't very good, either.
 
Wow, and it's nice to see so many Australian cars!

Whilst it wouldn't matter if they didn't, it'd be nice to have some of the more niche cars in too (Adventura/Avalanche, HSV GTS-R, and to a lesser extent Monaro CV8Z), or maybe a concept car (Efijy, Hurricane). The aforementioned Chrysler Valiant Charger would be icing on the cake for me personally (if it was the 6cyl)...or and XU1 :P
 
Chevy should pick up the Maloo and the R8 Tourer to sell in the states like the Chevy SS based on the Holden SS.

Chevy should put the engine from the 2016 Corvette Z06 into GTS, Maloo & Tourer then sell them (re-badge them as Chevy) in North America. I reckon they will be quite popular. :D

Anyways, we are FINALLY get to drive the 2014 HSV GTS aye symo63. I was expecting to see it in the FH3 line up but I was so f:censored:king surprised to see that Turn 10 gave us the 2016 HSV GTS Maloo!!! :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:Also, it's good to see the 2014 FPV Super Pursuit Ute & 2015 Ford Falcon GT F 351 are getting included as well.

Oh yes, they gotta give us the Monaro CV8Z and I guess that you are talking about the 1996 Holden VS Commodore GTS-R since they haven't made the new GTS-R yet :(

Nick nack, the 1998 V8 Vantage is back! Oh and it's great the see a screenshot of that Holden Sandman! Oh and I'm pleased to see a Maloo finally in a Forza game! :D

EDIT: Also, about that one comment with some examples of Australian cars; I think I can live without some rebadges Daewoos and japanese family cars. I like the Valiant Charger idea and a couple of the sports cars, but I don't think we need those other cars.

The Holden Efijy in Test Drive Unlimited was a beauty. Wouldn't surprise me if they put it in a dlc or even in the launching roster.

Yes I can't wait to drive the new GTS mate in FH3. As with all the Aussie cars. Love it.
 
Sorry to take off topic and ask a completely noob question, looking at the pre-order stuffs I looked at the Microsoft Store first because I kinda want the GT350 R the most, but it looks like shipping an actual disc for Xbox One, and I ain't got one of those, just my PC. To get the digital only it seems I could do it through the Xbox store. Amazon for sure can, and so can Game Stop.

What's the best way to pre-order the game for my PC? Yes, I talked my self into the Ultimate Edition.


Found this little tid-bit on the Xbox store page under pre-order info:

Forza Horizon 3 (launches on 9/27/2016)


Pre-order Forza Horizon 3 now and get the following in Forza Motorsport 6 and Forza Horizon 2:

  • Forza Motorsport 6: Maguier's Car Pack
  • Forza Horizon 2: Rockstar Car Pack
Note You must own Forza Motorsport 6 and Forza Horizon 2 to receive the Car Packs.

Can I say wtf?

I don't care what you like I was just answering a question about what Australian market cars there are. Opinions are entirely irrelevant.

According to your ad the car packs are for FM6 and FH2, not FH3. It'd be pretty pointless handing them out to people who don't own the games they were designed for. It looks like a bonus for owners of previous games.

They should give a choice. That for previous franchise owners. Alternative like free stuff on FH3 itself for those who dont.

Were you not using this answer to further your point about a lot of desirable cars not being included though? This would make opinion entirely relevant.

Ah I only saw the last part not the beginning. My bad. Thanks for the catch.

Still wondering the best way to pre-order the digital version. Almost leaning on Game Stop for the two cars and potentially the model Lamborghini.

Good luck with your decision. I can't really help with this one but I think store-specific pre-order incentives should be banned. Quit making your loyal customers miss out, whoever at Microsoft makes these decisions. I imagine they're very lucrative though. I'd be looking at Game Stop as well were I in your position.

Hear, hear! :cheers:

First of all, it doesn't matter if you care or not; I'm still going to make my opinion anyway. Just like other users have before me. Second, it seemed to me that you made that list to point out cars you actually wanted in FH3. It seemed to me that opinions were quite relevant.
