At least, that's the impression I get from their weekly Showroom reveals. Imagine trying to sell a car as new when it's really a re-painted model from the previous year with no options and that requires an expensive, proprietary fuel designed to provide less power and eventually kill the car. That is Forza 5 for me right now.

I just care about the improved driving physics, graphics, AI and multiplayer. As long as they keep all/most of the interesting cars from Fourza, it's all good.

Well as long as it has the same level of customization (or better yet even more!) including the matte paint added in Horizon (which has been confirmed along with bare materials like stainless steel, carbon fiber or polished aluminum) I'll be happy.

And also if a later DLC adds my Celica to the game (or better yet any year model/trim level of the Z31)

If I have to buy DLC to get my own Dart in the game....

What about refreshes, then? Will it still be the past model Fiesta or will we get a new one? Questions Questions Questions.

I would guess that they're only going to the trouble to show off the "wow" cars that will get people interested, and they've pretty much already got all of those.

It's doubtful anyone outside of this forum would say "Holy shit, a Buick Roadmaster!? I MUST HAVE THIS GAME."

I don't even think anybody here would be excited. Not for a car that's been in the game since the first title. It's one thing to like the car, because then you could just get a cheap used 360 and play FM4. But to try and use it as a selling point for a new game on a new console is frustrating.

The only "wow" car I've SEEN is the Indycar, and that's only because it's open-wheel not because of any affinity for the racing series or the car by itself.

I need a distraction.

Good luck getting info out of T10.

Well, substitute for any other obscure car that has not been in the game so far. I don't really keep track.

Don't be so mature.

New content keeps Forza from becoming FIFA.

Well yeah, but you can only apply the same aero parts to the same car every two years so many times before you start falling asleep while playing.

From what I've heard, load times are horrendous too. I'm really struggling with the idea of throwing down $500 for a system with no titles I have a desire to actually play.

For me, those things are the new content :)

Also, what do you mean no new cars? What about all the open-wheelers? That's a huge addition. I'm betting they'll get a fair number of open-wheeled street cars as well. Hopefully BAC and Caterham didn't sell exclusive licenses to EA...

Pretty sure the McLaren P1 is new isn't it?

That why you should get involved in iRacing instead!

Forget the XBox One. Get a nice G27 and sign up for iRacing instead.

Hopefully we'll get a few more...

Think we can petition T10 to start offering DLC for Fourza again?

I play iRacing when I have time. :)
