Why would they do all 30 car reveals on just Hockenheim? Maybe we're in for a surprise track like Porsche's test track or something? Would be pretty sweet

Hockenheim = German; Porsche = German

I don't see how there's anything more to it than that, but I guess we can hold our breath...?

BTW I finally tried out the Hennessey Venom GT. MADNESS!!!!!!!!!! ABSOLUTE MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!!

I got my modified but untuned Venom to 267 without a sweat on the Mulsanne; I want to see 270+ with it

So one of the 7 new cars was used on a Cayenne? I welcome the new model over the old one, but now there's only 5 new cars to the series to be announced (since the BSR liveried race car probably counts as 1 new). An SUV feels like a wasted spot to me.

Here's hoping a couple of the remaining spots go to the 917K and 918 Spyder.

Nurburgring GP = German. Nurburgring Nordschliefe = German. So far we've only seen Hock. Maybe they only have this photo view at Hock and not at the 2 Nurb tracks? Who knows... Maybe I'm looking into it too much but seeing as the initial 2 Porsche reveals (Sport Classic and Boxster S) were in race replay and 2 photo modes we have access too... it got me thinking why all the countdown reveals have all be on Hockenheim


I haven't even purchased the Venom yet, only did the rivals event and went lol
And I only tried it so far with just the pad!!

As for the 7 new Porsches, we only know of 2 of them. The BSR racing livery GT3 Cup and today's Cayenne Turbo. One more to go. I'm sure I'll be F5ing like made every 15min or so

RE: Drifting on Fujimi, I couldn't beat the bounty hunter challenge score of 77,145. My best was 64,000 (which would have been roughly 76,000 without those three wall strikes, grrr). I tried a few more car combinations and attempts but put it down and played something else.

You know you're upset when playing Dark Souls is more calming than continuing to play Forza.

I wish it was a AWD challenge.

Painting over that....

Keeping the wheels.

Better yet, are the wheels paintable? They're identical to the Black Swan GT3, even down to the rim stickers, except in color.

Doubt it. Stock wheels can't be changed. Just have to choose wisely.

Is forza 4 better than 3?

[VR6GTI72]

Is forza 4 better than 3?

Indeed. With the porsches coming it will be complete. It seemed like the only "pro" FM3 had over the new title. IMO

[OptimusGlen]

would you guys not count the Sport Classic 911 and the New Boxster as two of the 7 new cars?

[wolfsburgraz]

The Sport Classic was a DLC car in Forza 3 and shouldn't be considered new. The Boxster is a 2010 and might have been one of the cars in Forza 3 as well?

[rschlagbaum]

Slightly off topic of the new Porsches, but has anybody been working on the Truckin' Drag rival for this month? I built up a range rover, but can only get it into low S Class numbers. I watched the #1 guy for it. He is driving a range rover with an R3 rating and his replay looks really funky (semi stall on launch, only used 4 gears). Is there a chance of shenanigans? The #2 leaderboard guy seems a bit more realistic in the replay and not shady, but that #1 guy just looks off. Anybody else checked this out?

Back to Porsche, I can't wait for my 914.

Ok thanks will be getting it soon

Nope. Both were in FM3. So far we only have 2 of 7 new Porsches revealed. Still crossing fingers for a 917k which I can see being the last car revealed since it's the most wanted Porsche apparently.
There's just so many classic street and race Porsches I want that's never been in FM series that I hope the remaining 5 aren't all newer cars.

[OptimusGlen]

Going to predict this now... no 917 and no 918.

[Daskoupe]

this is gonna suck

[nickthaskater]

lol @ 3 modern racing 911s so far

F*ck you, T10.

[wakeboarderdave]

Don't worry, all the Porsche's everyone feels being left out will be included in the second Porsche DLC pack. Because they can only fit so many cars in one DLC at a time.

Where did you come up with the idea that a DLC can only fit a certain number of cars?

[VR6GTI72]

I dont think there is a limit of what they can add into a DLC. It read more like a troll post.

The Porsche pack is more of an expansion than a typical DLC. I doubt there will more than 1 or 2 after the pack is released if there is any more packs offered and it sure as hell wont be brand specific.

F*ck you, T10.

I don't see the problem (yet). What I'll say a big FU to T10 is if they start padding the 30 Porsches with dupes of the exact same car just by having a different livery.

- 2011 997/2 GT3 Cup
- 2008 997 GT3 Cup
- 2005 996 GT3 RSR

So we have pretty much both 997 cup variants and a 996 GT3 RSR. Something tells me we'll see a 996 Cup car. I don't want to see the exact same car but different livery, not even a single one. THAT'S WHAT THE LIVERY EDITOR IS FOR!!!

I do want to see older though. And maybe my conspiracy theories are coming out but the race cars are getting older as in 2011, 2008, 2005

[CuCo33]

Going to predict this now... no 917 and no 918.

I can see those 2 being the last cars revealed. 'final 2 Porsches... 917k and new 918' and then all of our pants will start to swell.

And since E3 is around the corner, I can also see T10 announcing a track DLC or more details about the Porsche pack. OR Forza Horizon...

ok... conspiracy theory over lol

[wolfsburgraz]

I'd like to know more about the upcoming Viper DLC. Interested if they'll only be adding the GTS and GTS-R or perhaps some other SRT related or Dodge vehicles.

I know the new Dart is based off the Alfa Giulietta, but I'd like to drive it in the game (regardless of how insulting it is to badge a compact car like that a Dart).

[OptimusGlen]

We wont see much of any Horizon info until E3 or after.

[Brendan@bwalkauto]

27th fastest auto crosser in the rivals leader boards. I'll take it.

[rschlagbaum]

914 and sport classic! Now I am hoping for a 356.

That is fine I have 1820 mp saved up lol

Gt3 rs

[wolfsburgraz]

^^ I really enjoyed driving that car in F3, happy to see it returning.

The GT2 was the one that I could never really get to handle right.

[OptimusGlen]

Forza Flying Lap - Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca | American Le Mans Series

911 GT3 RSR (997) confirmed!

[CuCo33]

Since this is the 2011 model, I guess it's another new one. The last Flying Lizard 911 GT3 RSR we had in FM3 was a 2007

[OptimusGlen]

yep, I too believe this counts as one of the new rides. which is a shame...
