How did you get matte paint? I don't see it as a selection.thelurkinghorror said:Yeah, I love matt colors. Tnx!

What exactly is the difference between CSR and CSR Elite wheel? From what I can tell, Elite has an extra force feedback motor and better fit & finish. Surely not worth double the price except for the most hardcore?
Also, any suggestions between Clubsport pedals vs. CSR elite pedals? Again, the only difference seems to be that Clubsport has ABS Brake vibration and Contactless HP sensors. This is my first wheel so I'm not sure how critical those features are.

288 GTO. It's a bit loose and lively, but I don't care because it sounds so ferocious.
'65 Mustang. Made a stripped out C-class race car. Feels very good to drive.
Z06. My favourite Corvette of all time; a regular production homologation special for the GT1 C6.R. It's much harder to drive in FM4, driving it now feels like watching on-board videos on YouTube. Really rewards finesse. I'll probably end up with two of these, A S700 one with a wing and livery, and an A600 'street car'. Why is there no Z07/"Carbon" body kit!?!
Mosler. Take above car's engine and stick it in a street-legal LMP body. It looks more parts-bin-y than a Gumpert, but is still more attractive.
Really pleasantly surprised by the Diablo GTR. Very, very planted.

Can't do it for you at work but youtube "fanatec forza" or something*. There's a good run-down of every wheel you can play with.
Also, earlier in the thread, someone quoted Thomas (Fanatec rep) saying that we should wait for the CSR Elite. Apparently it's night and day... Don't know if it's PR BS or not but personally, I'll be waiting. I have the CSR Elite pedals on order.
*Edit: You see, someone nice did it!

I was in the same position as you (as happens for most racing games using a controller).
On a whim I bought some of these:

They have actually helped with the jerkiness, I can see the difference when I watch my replays and also when playing. The experience is much smoother.
I am still on the fence on spending the loot for the Fanatec setup, but for now these seem to help and are cheap!

Unfortunately the 900 degree steering fix just emulates 270 degree mode, which means it has speed sensitive steering :/
If they don't fix it before the next patch or another month I'll make another video and make it really long going into detail about all the different caveats and assists/ratio changes that happen within the game.

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?
no preorder cars for me either...

I posted this in Forza Motorsport 4 official forums...
"Dear Turn 10. I can't install the game. I cleaned up the DVD's and the DVD drive (with Philips CD cleaner), and it's not installing.
I have an original XBOX360 premium console (20GB HDD), then i bought a 250GB HDD to install the games.
1st. - When I tried to install Forza Motorsport Disc 1, it reached approximately 33% the installation, and then the disc spins down... till 40% when the installation stalls and appears a message to clean the disc. I cleaned the disc but both discs have rigorously no scratches.
2nd. - When I tried to install Disc 2, it stalls the installation of the cars and autovista models...
Please, can someone tell me what's going on, or what can you do to help me?
Thank you very much.
Note: I tried multiple times both discs.
Note2: I ordered from GAME UK, but I live in Portugal..."
Can anyone help me?

I got the Top Secret Toyota unicron from the Game with Dev night, but it won't let me share it with the GAF garage. It's weird because I can share the Forza 3 unicorns no problem.

Are you installing disc 2 through disc 1, not through the dashboard?
It sounds like your Xbox has a dying laser, I don't think the game will be faulty.

I think I hit level 32 last night. I can't remember, it was getting late. I have been suffering at work. Do you guys know that yesterday I was pretending to work in our storage closet at work, but I slept on the floor for 20 min...............and my GF has been complaining..........lol.
This game is killing me.

Yes, I tried to install disc 2 after trying to see other models in autovista. It requested to remove disc 1 and insert disc 2.PumpkinPie said:

Not at the moment. Still getting credits every time I level up. Thing is, it take longer to level up now. Seems like I was stuck at 71 for a while. Even more so with affinity levels. Constantly picking Ferrari as much as I can, but the level meter doesn't want to move.
Then again, haven't raced online for a couple days. I remember levelling up pretty quick when racing online.
Edit, gift cars stop at level 50.

Hi all. My first post here after getting the game. Level 36 now. Having a blast. However I am very disappointed that the old Silverstone is in the game. The circuit has changed and has been in it's current layout for almost two years now. Its strange that I started to play this game and almost had to re-learn the track to some extent.
I dont think it looks good that both F1 2010 and 2011 have the "new" Silverstone in it and Forza 4 doesnt.
/pathetic little rant over....

Since I'm waiting for a response from Microsoft, I will ask for something here...
Can anyone make a backup of the game (disc 1) and post it somewhere, where I could copy via USB pen to my xbox?
I'm not promoting piracy (because I will put the game that I payed in the DVD tray to be recognized), but since my dvd drive may be KO, i would appreciate any help.
PS: I don't know if I was fully understood.... :s

Tiago Leite said:
And how would that work? I don't get it.
What's the model of your 360? Do you have other games with the new security feature such as Gears of War 3?
What they told in the support? Did you get any luck with the people on the phone or was it another not-so-portuguese in the call center that does not understand nothing about the 360?
New Silverstone is shit so no big loss here...
Bridge corner >>>>> new section + new pit wing
Event list difficulty really is harder. It's weird when coming from world tour.
I've started playing Gears 3 so my time with Forza 4 has been slightly reduced. Need to get back into it !

My model was the original xbox 360 premium 20GB. Gears 3 didn't gave me problems but this one stops when reaches 43%/44%.
Since there is an option to copy the game installs from xbox dashboard (My Xbox -> System Configuration -> Memory -> HDD -> Games -> Installed game -> copy), I would assume that was possible to copy games installed on HDD.
I didn't use the phone support because it's not available when I found this problem: "Está disponível assistência telefónica. Segunda a Sexta: 09:00-17:00". I sent them an email to the support team.
