Dear Turn 10.

Please include the BMW E39 M5 in Forza 4. It's better than than the one after it in terms of looks and handling. It also has a unique and very special engine.

This man speaks the truth! I have often thought about trading in my E36 M3 towards an E39 M5.

C'mon, just because we got rid of Porsche, it doesn't mean we have to replace one ugly car with another ugly car.

There are three months left till release, seems like people need to take some valiums lol
This is nothing. Don't you remember the GT thread?
We went nuts over there! There were people posting like crazy nearly every second. Begging,pleading,anger,frustration,sadness, happiness,roller coaster rides and shit were the norm in that thread....
Anyway, still waiting for a bombshell T10, give it to me, my body is ready..

We may have a track reveal today along with the recap of all the announcements from the past week.
Looking not likely at this point.

Not that I was getting my hopes up anyways. At most, I was expected 'LAGUNA SECA exclusive reveal!' or something similarly sigh-worthy.

Personally I'm ok with dawn/dusk lighting. Never was a fan of night driving in racing games. Having it for Le Mans would make sense though.

Much ado 'bout nothing. Someone hearing what they wanted to hear..?

Not what I expected, but still awesome to hear this (if really true).
Greenawalt told us that Turn 10 had managed to avoid 'crunch' on the game - the period where developers work all hours to ensure a project gets finished on time - due to strictly "metering ourselves all the way along, which is really the unsung hero of games development".

This is somehow more worth than some crappy cars.

I tend to agree. Full-on night racing always looks a bit... odd in racing games. Dawn/dusk (what the hell would be the difference apart from the orientation of the sun?) with sidelights/daytime running lights on the cars would be much sexier.

And I think any weather effects would compromise the graphics too much, so I'm not at all bothered if they are omitted. By 'weather' I mean precipitation; it would still be nice to have wet tracks with reflections, puddles and spray, and maybe patches of fog to drive through in dips, but rain itself? I think it would probably detract from the look of the game unless it was done extremely well. Maybe next gen when the hardware is really up to the task.

Pretty much... At least tomorrow we'll get more screenshots.
Who am I kidding, watch it being just be a copy/past of all the tweets from these past days. :p
Turn 10 must really love playing this game, releasing one new car along with two other cars that everyone knew they had 9.9999999 out 10 chances to be back in FM4. :lol
I hope they seriously ramp up the announcements soon. It's been one and a half month since E3 and beside the LCE we know nothing more on the game itself. :-/

Here's the Mk3 (not GTI) :

Wish Microsoft had a more varied exclusive lineup so I could justify buying a 360 for this game :(

The console indeed has a varied exclusive line up.

Either you already owned one, or you are ignoring lots of games.

That's from their feed, is it? Fucking YES.

I'm all for the E39, but the S62 is showing its age compared to the S65 V8 (which I'll happily swap should the game permit :p)

Well done Turn 10. The Cossie is mine!

brotkasten said:
Can we get that list again?

The cars listed by TofuR all pretty much made it in except these:
Ford Escort RS Cosworth

Mazda RX-3SP

Mitsubishi Starion Turbo

Toyota MR2 Supercharged

Chevrolet 64 Impala SS

We can expect these cars to be in and if they are, I'll be in retro heaven. I'll crowd around a bonfire and sing kumbaya for 3 nights straight!!

Hmmm...how possible might it be to run an all-retro garage? Say, no car later than 90?

I'd ask about doing no car later than 80, but not sure if that's shooting too high.

Turn 10 shenanigans have a way of making me less interested in their games. Forza 4 looking awesome so far makes it a little easier to ignore this time around.

I would love that!

....we're now showing off three cars a day, and we're working on another goal for you all to work towards so we can continue to tell you about even more of the cars that will be in Forza 4. There are a lot, so expect things to ramp up as we get closer to launch.
That's fine with me.

I'm not wow crazy about the Impala (not a massive US car fan) but the others... ohhh my.
How can you not like the Impala?
I love American cars especially muscle/pony so I wouldn't say no to any of the Yanks' cars...except perhaps, for some of the shit they came out with in the late 70's mid 80's... Mercury Colony Park,Cadillac Cimarron,Lincoln Versailles,Buick Apollo...shudder

I can see his point. I pretty much own zero exclusives on 360. Looking forward to F4 though.

I don't not like it, but I can never tell the difference between a lot of the tanks from that era. Plus, my first car was a 1980 Celica so my heart belongs to the 1980s Japanese era... it's a given that I'd prefer the RX3, Starion and MR2 over any American car amongst them.
