The old oval window would have been cool, but would break Forza tradition of wrong versions.
The Wheels look quite huge I hope it will get low enough to get the 'Cal look'.
I'm planning to do one with a set of Smoothies on it:-)

I don't think I'll put as much positive camber on it as my mate had on his!!! It looked great but he never got his money's worth out of a set of tyres:-)

That's a good point, why break with tradition when you can annoy your loyal fans hehe

Something I just thought of, the clue for the '40 Ford was "Pre War", for everyone else the war started in '39, so how is that a pre war car? Someone at T10 needs some history lessons me thinks.

1940 Ford De Luxe Coupe - Looks like its going to be fun thumbup
2011 Aston Martin Cygnet - Noooooooooooooo!
1958 MG MGA Twin-Cam - Not really
1997 Maserati Ghibli Cup - Yes please
2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series - Going to be fun
1987 RUF CTR Yellowbird - FFS more bloody Porsche!!
1992 Toyota Celica GT-Four RC ST185 - Already have stock one
1963 Volkswagen Beetle - Could make fun F/E class one make racing.

Where's to Mini Cooper???

Not the best pack I've ever seen
There's still hope - the MGA has been a rumour for months if you look back, so perhaps it's still on the list. I'm quite happy about the Beetle - perversely I've been waiting for something so slow you need to change down to go up hills at Fujimi Kaido. biggrin

You only don't like it because it's not full of crappy race cars.

Lol

Try racing F class cars, you'll soon get sick of down shifting:-)

The Beetle will be great fun for the painters out there. I'd quite like to see a surfboard design.

P.s. The first person I see driving one with a Herbie paint is getting rammed off the track for lack of originality:-D

No cross contamination in this game, but a scooby transplant would be cool.

I think that the 911/Beetle are close enough. The 912 was available in the USA with a VW type 4 engine as late as 1976, and the 914 was available with either Porsche or VW engines. With all that power and weight out back, wheelies should be quite easy...

It's more of a licencing issue rather than the shape and size of the engine bay, they've gone so far as taking out same manufacturer engine swaps like the Ford cammer V8. I think it's unlikely but would love to be proven wrong.

In your opinion.

It's got some good fun stuff to drive like the AMG and Yellowbird, and some good mod and paint cars like the Ford and Beetle. MGA pairs off with the Austin Healey, Cygnet pairs off with the Smart.
James has probably never heard of the RUF CTR Yellowbird hehe

I have never known anyone that dislikes so many cars.

We can take it to the Topgear test track and drop something heavy on it.

Not quite, that was a Bi Turbo, slightly different but the Cup did originate from the Bi Turbo. Should be a decent car, 2.0l Twin Turbo, 330 bhp, old school turbo lag biggrin

Hope they do have that sudden kick in the arse lag, they didn't quite get it on the F40.
