I’m enjoying Forza 6 a lot. AWD burnouts in a 355 hp Mazdaspeed3 are a hoot.

man... Mazda really shoulda built that car for real - limited edition like the old speed6

I’ve heard there actually was an AWD 3 in Japan, but no ‘Speed version. That drivetrain probably wasn’t designed to withstand the power levels of the Speed3 engine.

Volvo had an AWD version of the S40 T5, which is the same chassis.

*boots up Gran Turismo 6 to use a Mazdaspeed 6*
I swear, the three Mazdas I’ve owned get no love in video games (NB Miata, 323 GTX, MS6).

There’s a Mazdaspeed Miata in Forza 6. No 323 or 6, though.
I’m always hoping for a Fiero, but it seems the only Pontiacs anyone is interested in putting in a video game are old Trans Ams and GTOs.

Get Horizon 3 and Forza 7 too. All good stuff.

Yeah, I did have some fun with the MSM in Forza when I played a friend’s copy. And to be fair there are plenty of NBs in GT4-6, but they are all ‘standard’ models carried over from GT4. :(
I’m a little surprised the Fiero doesn’t get included in more games. How many other American mid-engined cars are there really?

Hmmm, Corvair, ssc ultimate aero, saleen S7, Ford GT/GT40/GT....
Not a lot, you’re right.

Both are definitely on the list.

I think it’s the only mass-produced mid-engine car from an American brand.
If you want to include homologation specials and low volume specialty stuff, there’s the GT/GT40, Saleen S7, SSC Ultimate Aero, and maybe the Hennessey Venom (kinda American, kinda British).
I think that’s it.
The Corvair is close, but that’s rear-engine.

This is true. I’d like to drive one eventually to see how similarly it handles.

About time I should play that again.
Some close racing can be had.
And this, whatever it is.
