It's a Forzamotorsport.net preorder incentive.
There was only ever a mention of the Spirit RX7. There were other unannounced bonuses too? Does that mean there are two RX7s, one that was imported from the FM3 gift and another as a specific one for FM4? Woo!

Where do we check gifts? I need to see if my Top Secret Silvia from the game with dev over the weekend is in (hi Jube!).

Yep those were sent out, took a bit (lots of names) but they should be in your inbox.
 
Sorry to those who sent me invites tonight. I was winding down in the menus before turning in for the night.

Might have to hop back on for a bit to check out the gift cars, though.

Doesn't it have a power button in the base like the CSR wheel?

The Turbo S wheel also have power button at the base. I am sure GT2 has them too since they share the same base.

I also need to make pedal stop for my stand and tinker with gas pedal to make it stiffer.

I got around to hook up Kinect so it can see my face and head tracking work really well. I am surprise how well it work.

It's the only track where I have to turn on the brake-only line so I can see where the fuck I'm supposed to go.

Surprisingly no. Thought I would considering how flat the track is. I have problems with Hockenhiem and Silverstone, though. Hate both of those tracks, as well as Motegi.

I apologize in advance to those I am racing with, I don't have a mic with the wheel. Also thanks for taking me out in the first turn of indy assholes lol.

THE WORDS! They'll drift away without the _!
I hate most of the real world tracks.

Although I haven't played the new ones, since I STILL don't have the game.

No love for VIPs?

NO LOVE?!

I wish I had more time for the game, getting home from a 13 hour day from school to play 30 mins of Forza is just the biggest fucking cocktease. And I still lurk the thread to remind myself how fun it is x_x

Odd... My Spirit RX7 never imported from Forza3. Also I just logged into Forza4 and no gift cars waiting :(

Jube - Did all of the gifts go out today?

Thankya! Admittedly, I tend to avoid the message center as it's full of notifications that someone's beaten my time in Rivals

Awesome work managing that whole event, BTW. Looks like there were a lot of people and the server being overloaded wouldn't have made it any easier. Bravo.

So, to clarify... those other two cars were preorder bonuses?

Also, when are those who bought the LCE and season pack getting their cash bonus? Not that it matters... I already have 2.5mil just from Rivals mode

IIRC it was only 250,000, which seems a bit pissy now compared to a full car pack.

So I'm pretty sure you can force AI to draft off you. I managed to get two of them lined up perfectly on Le Mans and both went crashing into the tires at the first chicane. Pretty funny sight to see in the rearview mirror and then sliding off to the side of you.

haha, please tell me you saved the replay!
 
Hmm, I got the Spirit R as the PreOrder bonus in Forza 3 but don't have any of the new cars. I wonder if it's something they are gradually rolling out to people.

Just started season 9. Not sure if I should just go for it or if I should hold off and do some events out of the event list. I don't want to be guided by world tour but at the same time I like the feeling of completion.

No love, sir. I'm VIP but I might as well be a regular scrub since Turn 10 don't give a fuck 'bout my extra $20 I paid. TWENNY DOLLA!

I also didn't get the pre-order cars. :(
I even sent two e-mails just to be sure I would get them.

I'm loving the Mitsubishi Starion for its handling. Would anyone suggest something that compares in higher classes?

If you can't decide, always just go with the most expensive. So that way, if you dont like it you can always buy the other for cheaper.

35 is a hard one, don't know what I'm even gonna go for, probably the Spada or Bertone.

I didn't get any cars either. Sadface.

in the club garage, does anyone else have cars showing up as black squares? I shared a Ferrari FXX and it shows up as a black square, and if I look all the way to the end of the list there are a few more from other people.

Bertone lowest buyout right now is 100k. Go for the Spada!
