Whoa, so they're using the highway roundabout. Y'know what, I can live with that.

Reaaaaaaally not keeping the major car culture focus a secret though, we're definitely getting that tuner partner update now.

Well, the font in the new picture sure looks like the Donut Media one... Honestly, three updates focusing on DM is overkill for me, but as long as this is the last one, then why not I guess.

As for cars, C&C to me is all about the greatest sports, super and hypercars of past, present and future, so if it's gonna be a bunch of precustomized cars, then it'll be such a waste of an update.

The new location looks great, so this update is an MC20, a 992 GT3 RS, an R8 V10 Perfomance, a Lagonda and a Gran Turismo Folgore away from being quite the banger, with a good pack to go with it.


Not long left to find out.

I don't think so, personally. If this were a full Donut collab they would have just called the Series 'Cars and Coffee', leaving out the Horizon name, and teased Donut's involvement like they did with Upgrade Heroes. Besides I think the font is meant to invoke latte art like the kind you find with espressos, as if a barista painted the event in the sky with milk; gotta invoke coffee imagery somehow I guess.

As for the cars... I mean, you can't expect a car culture event like this to feature completely unmodified cars, especially considering the need to have a "Horizon twist" on this one such car culture trend. They might not call that theme "modern car culture icons", they might use "most extreme real-world builds" and make the Playlist upgrade focused to get players in the spirit of Cars and Coffee, but it's what I thought of when I realized they were gonna play this straight.

I'm really looking forward to what we will get in the next update, but also worried about getting hopes up too much. After all, we've had a wide selection of new to Forza cars in abundance recently but I think the MC20 and Revuelto are still probably too much to hope for.

Thinking on the Cars & Coffee topic, it's very much a US-created event. I know lots of European supercars turn up to those shows, but so do large numbers of modified US cars. I think PG will probably want to show us the roots of the event if they can, which would mean more of a US tint than anything else.

Oh yeah, American Modified is very much what they're hinting at, the insignia they've got on the side of the Coffee Shop is an American muscle car with a blower, so they've definitely got the US 'tuner bro' side of car culture on their mind. Hence, the DeBerti C10 Slayer and Hennessey Venom 1200 I was thinking about earlier, this would be the PERFECT update to bring those in with.

 

[GBalao888]

Car pack confirmed

 

[AudiMan2011]

Coffee shop looks good for multiplayer cruise meets

 

[skazz]

Well the Ultimae has arrived... Not very surprised

 

[-Fred-]

Another Aventador?

 

[ALLSETFORMOVE]

Ultimae is looking good! So is the returning Zagato!

Edit: is that an AZ-1? Pajero Evo?

 

[AudiMan2011]

Autozam?

 

[-Fred-]

Holy **** the Autozam! and the Pajero Evo!

 

[TGR55]

AZ1 and Pajevo spotted

 

[Digolgrin]

... y'know what I called the coffee cup costume internally so... That's my brownie points, lol.

 

[AudiMan2011]

VW SP2 is a surprise

 

[-Fred-]

What an eclectic mix of cars so far.

 

[ALLSETFORMOVE]

VW SP2 is a surprise

I basically know nothing about that

 

[AudiMan2011]

I basically know nothing about that

It was a sports car for the Brazilian market

Volkswagen SP2 - Wikipedia

[L8 Apex]

I basically know nothing about that

Sports car made by VW Brazil

 

[-Fred-]

I think that's a new bodykit on the BRZ

I'm going to call it now, the AZ1 and Pajero are part of the DLC pack.

Ok I was not expecting a Thing to be added in.

 

[Cinek156]

All new festival playlist cars:

 

[AudiMan2011]

Autozam and Pajero Evo must be part of the car pack

Yeah that's the SARD GT1 bodykit

 

[skazz]

Knowing PG the VW Type 181 will have a monstrous amount of engine swaps...

 

[Populuxe]

Knowing we are getting the SP-2 and the Thing, my air-cooled VW loving heart is full.

 

[-Fred-]

Stagea, Pajero Evo and AZ-1 and Toyota Sera are in the car pack.

They kinda missed an opportunity with the Cappucino, but this is PG after all.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Sera and Stagea in the car pack as well

 

[L8 Apex]

R34 nose swap for the Stagea!

 

[-Fred-]

I would have preferred the 260RS bodykit but R34 conversion will do.

Edit: next month's theme is High Performance Dailies. FL5 Civic incoming?
