I'm so happy about all the "loose ends" they've been adding lately. Been wanting a classic Shelby back for a long time.

Nah, it's more because the interview guests weren't supermodels who were somehow also car experts. And that the whole thing wasn't a drag racing contest. Also that all new car packs should be free. Yawn.
I gotta admit the Supervan looked kinda underwhelming at first glance to me, so I'm glad they took it out and showed what it can really do. I'll probably pick up this car pack.

Weirdly I'm kinda torn on this month's playlist choices. First I'm going to give my honest opinion on the Playlist cars as below.
For starters, we got plenty of Mustang love and they've done a splendid job with the lineup, including the oh-so unloved, yet awesome Terminator Cobra. Even the S650 Mustang is coming which is fantastic, and I'd say the same for the F-150 Rapor R since that truck is long overdue. Artura's pretty cool, a gatecrasher to say the least. But everything else, though, falls short.
The 2020 TT RS really is just a glorified facelift and not really worthwhile addition to FM5 imo. It's ported straight from the inferior FM reboot, is based on the inferior US-specifications (maybe that's just the American in me saying that), and not really anything special. The F-Type SVR is awesome, but it came in too late. I suppose better late than never, but I don't get why it took almost 5-6 years for one to show in Forza.
The monetized car pack wise, I'll bring the best one: the '67 GT500 which is a legendary machine plus tons of cool mods. I would love to see this carry over to FM as a free car though tbh.
The Ginetta (don't know the model) looks great and I'd love to see it ported as well. But the last two... well I'll discuss them next.
The Sabre (ported from FMnot8) is simply not interesting for me. A coachbuilder's car isn't a bad choice but they could've chosen a better model... AM Valour, Victor, all those examples. A $3.9 million vehicle sold exclusively to Americans wasn't really worth paying a few dollars in FH5 imo. Did I mention that it's one of the least impressive designs from McLaren themselves?
The Supervan EV is pretty cool, but apparently the community hates it and, well, as above comments said, are the reason. Part of me would say that most EVs sound like dentist drills turned to full blast, but I wouldn't attest. Yeah, it would fit the acceleration theme, but I would have picked other options. It's great-looking but really questionable why it wound up in a car pack.
That's just my opinions on this series.

Only a glorified facelift, with minor styling differences (as mentioned in my opinionated thoughts about this series)

It's a Coronation Street (a British soap opera) reference.
There's a pub in Coronation Street called the Rovers Return. @UKMikey and I have a joke about a certain Youtuber looking like the landlady of the Rovers Return. Betty's Hotpot was a beef stew type meal served in the pub, and N&R is a pint of Newton and Ridley's beer.

I gotta admit, I did enjoy the bamboozle here; I thought this was partly a Horizon Apex Takeover, but it turns out the very next Series is gonna be just that!
Next update teaser!
Never mind, of course, that most of the New-to-Horizon cars are asphalt cars and there was only one offroader in that entire bunch.
