The only song I recognize from that list is Liberate by Eric Pride. :lol:

I fully understand. I looked at the list and thought for sure it was in a different language or something. I don't know what any of that music is. :dunce:

But as I said, the music is one of the first things I shut off in a racing game anyway.
 
Not much there to fit my taste/knowledge but I won't write it off completely. Debaser is epic anyway and Reaching Out by Nero (Fred Falke version) from Horizon 1 turned out to be a lasting fave.

Ditto. I do the exact same thing in shooters as well. Well, after the first playthrough anyway. Some shooters have epic soundtracks.. BF BC2, MP3 GOW games, the original MW etc.

No rock station. 👎

Looks like there's an 'alternative rock' sort of station back, but each artist seems to have about 4 songs on that station. I recognize quite a few songs from GTA V, and a few more from The Crew beta...

Apart from that, don't recognize half the stuff, but the original Horizon's music was hard to top. There was something great about driving along at night to New Order. Debaser is good, and Ride of the Valkyries might be entertaining. Apart from that, eeh. Oh, and I'm sorry, but the radio station names are rubbish. I know they're named after record labels, but 'Innovative Leisure Radio'? Really? Could they not try and make the blatant advertising deal a bit less obvious?

2013 Ram Runner

The Ram Runner is much more than a dress-up kit for your Dodge Ram; it’s a tested and proven pre-runner set-up. It was developed with Baja-racer and KORE Performance owner Kent Kroeker. Hood scoops and a bed-mounted spare tire give it an aggressive look, but the real transformation happens in the suspension. Rugged upper and lower control arms provide a wider stance and improve the off-road capabilities, making the Ram Runner ready to take whatever the fields and canyons can dish out. With beefy Fox 3-inch internal bypass shocks in the front and a 5-link coil rear suspension, the Ram Runner has 14 inches of suspension travel and steep approach and departure angles. Wider off-road front and rear fenders ensure plenty of wheel travel and the space for the right tire and wheel combination. So, if you are an off-roader and a Mopar fan, the Ram Runner is ready and waiting to take on whatever you can throw at it, then come back begging for more.

1984 Ferrari GTO

Unofficially referred to as the “288 GTO” (the 288 stands for “2.8 liters, 8 cylinders”), the GTO resurrects a storied name from Ferrari’s past for a new breed of supercar, one that led directly to hypercars like the Enzo years later. Intended to be the homologation spearhead for a FISA Group B race entry (making the “omologato” part of “GTO” appropriate), the cancellation of that series led to just 272 GTOs ultimately hitting the road. Bad for race fans, good for collectors. Regardless of its lack of racing pedigree, the GTO is competition-bred, with features like an integral roll hoop and a quick-change rear subframe for easy stage-side maintenance. In a mid-longitudinal position is a twin-turbocharged V8 making 400 horsepower, developed with Ferrari’s F1 experience. A few echoes of the old GTOs made it past the business-only agenda of the GTO, like the rear cooling slits that recall the fender slits of the original GTO.

2012 Jaguar XKR-S

As one of Jaguar’s fastest and most powerful series production car to date, the XKR-S is no poseur. Its aggressive and sleek lines are straight out of the jungle, yet not without grace. The super-charged 5.0-liter V8 brings 550 horsepower to the table and 502 foot-pounds of torque to keep you slammed back in your seat. That’s enough juice to make the XKR-S Jaguar’s first full production car to become a member of the elite 186 mph (300kmh) and higher club. Keeping all this power grounded and sticky is an adaptive damping and stability control system with unique programming and revised rear-suspension geometry. Inside are plenty of leather and all the high quality accouterments you would expect. The XKR-S strays from Jaguar’s typical design approach, but that’s part of its appeal. Try it for yourself and see if you agree.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS Coupe

After two years of strong sales and success in racing, the first facelift for the original Camaro gave the F-body a sleeker and more hard-edged look. Mechanically-speaking, most of the drivetrain and other components were carried over from the previous model years. Only with the 1969 model year can you find this package of looks and American muscle car performance. In addition to almost entirely redesigned sheet-metal and an aggressive new grill, front-disc brakes were available for the first time ever. In its SS dress, a solid 300hp are available to your right foot. The Camaro also accommodates upgrading nicely and can easily become a go-to car for any hot rod battles that come your way. The 1969 Camaro SS represents a not-forgotten era when this pony car found its way into the hearts of Bow Tie fans all over America.

I hope all the cars come to the 360 version but I have a sinking feeling they won't.

Would be nice to see or hear SOMETHING about the 360 version. Starting to doubt it actually exists tbh
 
I have to say about regarding the Dino, even though it's in the game I'm not sure if it will be a unicorn car like it was on FH or if you can actually buy it from the showroom this time.

Having said that, I do look forward to recreating my rally tuned 288 GTO. ;)
 
The Stig Farmer
*G65. ;)

Even more powa

And all of the torques, 1000NM of it (roughly 730 ft/b). ;)

The 12C will be quite something if it lets us swap in the P1 motor but considering it's the same engine (albeit boosted further and electrified) I'm not getting my hopes up on it.

Now a turbo on the Willys jeep on the other hand... :mischievous:
 
Good to have the 288 GTO back, the Fiesta ST is also nice.
Still no Mazdaspeed 3 or Integra Type-R in sight, I start to lose hope. Well there's always dlc. :P
 
I can't imagine there'll be too many surprises left to announce.

Hopefully the barn finds aren't included in the announcements, to make them more special.
