What's the new barn find?
The only new car in the game that isn't a DLC car or Forzathon reward is the 356 Speedster, so that should be it! I'm quite happy about this
What's the new barn find?
How do you get the vinyl's in the gold colour though?
The best way to do it is to have the base colour of the car be gold. Then use black layers to mask it out.
I'm assuming for whatever reason having user editable shinyness or access to reflection/refraction for stickers hasn't been included.I did have a look about and saw some YT videos, I did see quite a lot of comments about people trying and it not working anymore, I have had a go but I cannot get it to work either, also I just don't have the skills to do it and more so with some of the vinyl's on the car, yes there are only a few but I cannot mask around them close enough.
Why not just let people pick from all the colours?
I've just realized the car pass doesn't contain this Porsche DLC. I can still win cars from Forzathon if I don't have it?
This will be the first Forzathon I actually do haha!yup. you can still get Porsches in this month's Forzathon. You just won't have the ones in the pack.
Never done a Forzathon before, what is it ?
For the bucket list challenge can you just do the same one 5 times?

Yes!
Yes.
Which one do you guys recommend?

Every weekend there are challenges to complete in-game for prizes. Start​ the game on a weekend and you'll be told it's Forzathon, and you'll be able to see the list of 3/4 challenges for the event.
For example, here are this weekend's challenges:
the airport one, just hold down gas and winWhich one do you guys recommend?
I have had another go and tweaked the colours.
Any guesses what the 2nd expansion may be?
I'm thinking gymkhana. That would be new to the Forza franchise and the team certainly has experience from their time with Codemasters.
No thanks I don't need a pack of the focus from blizzard mountain that need suspension adjusted to not spin out in actual racingAny guesses what the 2nd expansion may be?

Dear Lord please no. To me it was the worst part of the DIRT series, the game's got a beautiful open world, I don't want to have wasted money on the expansion pack if it's going to be single-car precision drifting...
That's awesome! Almost wanna buy the pack now...
I have seen others mentioning an issue with the 30% off cars from the shop, but nobody is saying what the actual issue is?
The discount doesn't work at all. I want to buy a McLaren F1 GT.

I have a ton of money. If you want to put a car up in the auction house, I'll buy it for a few million.
a nice choice in car ;3The discount doesn't work at all. I want to buy a McLaren F1 GT.
I may take you up on that if that's cool, I've got an extra HE Brat I'd love to get rid of ^^
Go for it, I've got too much credits and nothing to use it on.
When I was a kid, the McLaren F1 was the best car in some games (NFS II, IV, Cruis'n World), so it ended up as one of my favorites.a nice choice in car ;3
How do people get so many credits, is it all from that bug from early on where people were able to get billions?
I have had to grind the Goliath track to buy 99% of the HE cars if there are any spare credit's going though.
Thanks for the offer! I've put a Sesto Elemento and a Warthorg for sale (and a bunch of Focus RS HE but I couldn't reduce the buyout).I have a ton of money. If you want to put a car up in the auction house, I'll buy it for a few million.

Oh I don't want it either, I'm just saying it's the most likely option.
My previous guess was Porsche "expansion" but thankfully we got a car pack instead.
The GT version is actually a bit less powerful but has the perfect look, so sleek and awesome compared to the pile of knives lambos look nowawaysWhen I was a kid, the McLaren F1 was the best car in some games (NFS II, IV, Cruis'n World), so it ended up as one of my favorites.
I'd love an island or somewhere with loads of flowing segments and as few 90 turns as possible for some proper racing funNah, I think they know how unpopular something like that would be.
It will be another island, with Rally.
Maybe a new city....

Getting the 918 requires. Where's the best place to get one of those?an Airborne Pass
Holy shit. Probably a cross-country race. Do you have Blizzard Mountain? The Blizzard Peak cross-country has a big ramp at the start which is good for that.
This is probably the best tutorial vid for this challenge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYs_FITEyaE

I'm guessing it's going to be a rare car, because not all people will use help to figure out how to complete the challenge and it lasts only 1 day.
I'm like level 700 something and got most of the HE cars with wheel spins. I also get 450k or whatever each week with forza rewards. I ran laps around Goliath going for its leaderboard, but did a 50 lap race at some point too.
I only use like a dozen cars I love really, so 40 million is more than I need.

So is anyone elses Forzathon not tracking?
Another heads up as you need specific cars for these #Forzathons
#Forzathon Pork Chop Starts in 6 days
Perform 30 Lumberjack Skills in the WARTHOG to receive 120,000 CR.
#Forzathon Eye On The Spy Starts in 13 days
Complete a Championship in the Aston Martin DB5 to win Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3
The DB5 is pretty expensive CR-500k I think so best to see if there are any going cheap in the auction house.
Thanks for posting this. Not sure if I have the DB5.
What is a lumberjack skill? I assume it's knock down a couple trees quickly, but don't know the specifics. Anyone know?

That's a lot! how long did the 50 laps take though?
