Again, this must be game with best ever car list.. and its bigger and bigger

[markspeed]

I can only hope the Ginetta G4 is next. The list of British roadsters is huge and awesome. I hope this obscure little coupe' that I knew very little about a over a decade ago makes it into Forza. It's not my Avatar for no reason. I've touched this car. Watched it race. Indeed watch it start the race from last place, pass the entire field of 24 cars and then proceed to lap them all within 12 laps. This car, at the Coranado track simply flies. In 08 they had to move it into the next higher class, from Group 6, to Group 5 because it's too fast for the other cars of it's like. Last year they had to put it at the back of the grid for some reason, even though it's lap time in the qualifying race was good enough for 8th place in Group 4. It was on it's way to the front last year when it got crossed up behind a Shelby GT350 and slammed into the wall. I don't think the guy saw the Ginetta behind him cause the car and about half again bigger than a gokart.

I would so love to drive this car in Forza. I loved driving it in Gran Turismo 4. To have the drivers view point in Forza with this car would be awesome.

Well, you could go on the forums and make such posts as "What!! no Ginetta?? Worst car pack ever!! I will not be buying.. PD sucks!!!"

They seem to be listening as this pack includes a lot of cars people have been ranting about.

Another great pack BTW. I've bought them all so far and will continue to do so.

BOSS 302 nuff said for me. The FRS is a great addition as well. The whole pack is a great mix really. I think T10 has been doing a great job with the DLC this go around. I don't remember near as many great packs in F3. I'll usually end up having a blast with a car I never thought I'd like. Best example is the Ford Van. I thought that was kinda silly, and it is, but boy I've had a blast with it.

Probably the type of person who complains about the pointless boring, outdated
old cars they keep adding to the game.

You can't please everybody. The thing about cars is that opinions are subjective:
everybody likes something different. In every monthly DLC for Forza there is.....
something different.

Are we to assume then that you don't like any of the SUV's, Trucks, the Ford Transit Van, almost all of the Aston Martins, and even the Nissan GTR? Cause all of those are just as "limo like" or more so than the Lexus is?

Compared to most cars these days, especially luxury sedans, this car is litterally a middleweight. About 300 pounds heavier than the lightest Mustang you can buy. About 100 pounds lighter than a Camaro Z28/SS or whatever they're calling it. It's 400 pounds lighter than a Hemi Challenger. And there's probably only 3 Aston Martins made in the last 20 years that weigh less than the Lexus, and none of those cars have room for 5 in luxurious comfort. And all but the Mustang cost close to as much, or more.

A limo, the Lexus? Not even close. It's an Execu-jet, and looking at these numbers, it's a damn good one.

Indeed it would. That would be a slow wallowing series, with barges sloshing all over each other. Could be hilarious to spectate though.

Some serious power slides with those land yachts

Now, this is what I was talking about with my previous post, lol. To be in the true spirit of what this game is all about, you have to love cars, all kinds of cars, not just your Honda Civic.

Funny you should mention this, just add the '57 Chevy and you replicate a race I had the other night.
