Sorry its another Forza 3 thread, but does anyone know how you get to access the VIP cars, like the Aston Martis DBS, Ferrari 430 Scuderia and Lambo Superleggera?

It says I need to download them from market place, but they aren't in the marketplace, and if I click to get to it through Forza it says its unavailable.

Are they not released yet? Or is this just a problem I'm having?

Did you purchase the Limited Collector's Edition of FM3? If so, you should find a scratch card hidden inside the manual, which when redeemed at the Marketplace will give you access to the 5 VIP cars. If you didn't buy the LCE variant of the game, you will not be able to access them ...

I didn't know there were 2 versions. I did get a scratch card inside, which gave me the extra tracks. Or is that standard in both versions? Is there no way of downloading them and paying for them afterwards?

Not yet, I suspect they'll appear as a DLC in some variant or another. Perhaps Unicorn cars?

Yeah, that's what we were discussing last night. I hoping they may consider doing that, as the only one i'd want from the LE pack is the Aston DBS. But as I said last night, I already have 400 odd cars to play with so it's not like a few more is going to bother me too much..

Yeah but come on, how much do you want to be able to have a dark grey DBS on one of those coastal roads and be hunted down and barged off the road by some black Alfa's, Bond style! (Quantum of Solice)

Suprised nobody that has the DBS on there hasn't done that yet.

Exactly my reasoning. And also for the fact that it looks and sounds absolutely beautiful. But yes, I want one. I'll be even happier if I manage to get my hands on one in the game, but if not, I'm going to perfect my pimped out Range Rover instead.

I know, I know....holy thread resurrection etc etc etc

I too didn't realise there were was an LCE version and have only the normal Forza 3 game.

I quite fancy the Scud and GT3RS. Is there any way that you can buy the cars from the auction house/be gifted them??
