Hah, lemme tell ya, I used to think this was exactly where we were headed. I mean, Mexico is a coffee-producing nation so I figured, why not a Horizon Story that teaches the player about coffee? I know there aren't any coffee plantations on the Mexico map so this was always a pipedream in hindsight, but educational/informational content is kind of what the Horizon Stories do best so I practically expected it.Yeah, it will probably be something like "Ramiro in a car getting crappy convenience store coffee".
Or if we want to throw in odd choices like PG tends to do, the MG4 XPower could also be suitable as a sleeper daily.
The Donut Media Money Pit baseline cars also kinda fit this, but I'm going to assume here that they're going with unmodified daily drivers that are also high-performance. Which the FL5 fits right into, so I'm going to lock that in unless there's really difficulties with licensing from Honda.
I highly doubt we will see anything else from Donut Media, considering it's essentially dead now.
I can't think of many that fit the bill, that aren't in the game in some form.
Sad but true--although Recurrent Ventures is still around to talk to (so in theory PG can get their permission to use the models they scanned) and Bigtime's trying to ensure there's no drama/hard feelings between itself and Donut, as of their S13 video, so perhaps Donut Media Car Pack/Part 3 isn't dead.
The Elantra N would be a good guess, it would make sense with all the Hyundais they have been adding.
The stock Elantra N would be a great fit too, if not be the headline car alongside the FL5. I was struggling to think of something alongside the FL5 and new M5 but you nailed it on the head.
The issue with this is that some of the project cars featured on the channel in the past don't actually belong to Donut Media/Recurrent Ventures, they were personal cars from the guys that worked there. They'd have to get the agreement of the owner in order to use it in game, and despite the fact they've left in good terms, the brand they left still using their property likely won't go down too good and turn into a licensing/legal nightmare. It's exactly why we most likely won't see the Hoonigan cars return in future games, all the owners of the cars in the game left the company and Hoonigan Racing is not really a thing anymore since Ken Block died.
That makes sense, putting it that way. Even Bigtime is basically using cars that they personally own so even if you started a new collaboration with them, the cars there might not survive a similar meltdown.
Hey. I like the Rocket Bunny ND Kit! It's a least a lot better than the Forza Kit for the ND MX-5 from FMI think they made up for Modern Horizons being so off-road focused in a big way; four asphalt-oriented rewards, one of them being highly requested (even if it was a chain-gang meme request), all of the rewards being ICEs, a car pack that honestly doesn't have a single miss inside it, and the promise of more actual race route content next update on top of that. Mmm mmm, that's what I play FH5 for.
Really the only thing I hold against it is these cursed bodykits on the Miata and Stagea but it's Cars and Coffee, if at least one absolutely shameful looking car doesn't show up it wouldn't be a cars and coffee thing, now would it?
I'm really looking forward to new race routes bud. It would be good to see these routes get integrated into the monthly events I agree.
I know this has been posted already but anybody else excited about new Race Routes coming next update?
Especially if they are rotated into the Trial, Festival Playlist and Multiplayer. Adds a bit of fresh air into the races we do each week.
Hoping for new circuits this time as well, not just Point 2 Point.

And tbh I'd still like this in game - I want all the bodykits, please PG.
Did someone say M5...?
