Also, we're into the very last days of the Italian Exotics series and not once did one of the wheelspin exclusives turn up at the dealership.

I got them from the auction house anyhow, as it would've been silly wasting time restarting the game over & over when I had a better chance of getting them from there.

If they do show up, watch it be on the last day. That would be so typical.

Just to note that you will have only really been able to get them from the AH because the community has run convoys to ensure people were able to access the cars in the dealership. People have therefore purchased multiple copies which have driven the price down and meant there’s a lot of AH cars available.

What PGG should have done was to limit everyone to one copy of each wheelspin car purchased in the dealership but have them appear with the same regularity as all the other cars in the rotation. Also having the cars update every 5/10 minutes without needing to restart the game would have been sensible.

As it is, I suspect you’d have needed to restart over 1,000 times to get all six cars (if that was what you were hoping to achieve). The strike rate seemed to be less than 1% to get any of the 6 cars to pop up. That’s just ridiculous and PGG should be getting a lot of criticism for the way they implemented this “feature”.

I suppose we're going to get information on Horizon Mascot Party and the next Car Pass batch soon?

Apparently Thursday is when the next series starts.

That is how it normally works so we know what is coming ahead of time

What baffles me, as someone who did use those convoys, is that the Huayra R, a car that's in the Playlist this update, appears with surprising regularity while the Wheelspin exclusives are as rare as hen's teeth. At this point I'm convinced the whole thing is a bug they never had time to fix because they're focused on getting Drift Attack and the new Seasonal Time Attack circuit working.

I think they made an error with the Huayra R. It appears with the same regularity as the standard Autoshow cars and wasn’t even publicised as being in the rotation. It also makes no sense when it was also a playlist prize this month. My suspicion is that they meant to include the Huayra BC and someone selected the wrong car.

Yeah, I think it confirms the whole thing was scuffed from the off and PG wasn't allowed to fix it because new features and preparation for Gamescom took priority. At least everyone got the Wheelspin exclusive Viper ACR through the Technica collab, but that's it.
 
I actually thought the next history reward would be revealed the week the first players reach 500 points, but apparently that wasn't the case. Let's see if the next car will be for 1000 or 1500 points.

They're probably added alongside the Playlist cars of the update after they're unlockable, so we'll find out in about an hour and a half what the next car is.

I hear you. The only wheelspin exclusive that turned up in this period was not at the dealership but through a wheelspin...

I got my Diablo GTR but the whole complete no show of these cars for me in the dealership, not even once has completely soured any such ingame special event like this. If they do it again I won't even bother. If some of these exclusives actually showed up even just once or twice I'd be a lot happier.

Here's the kicker, the price I got them from the auction house turned out to be cheaper than the discounted price that was offered at the dealership. The same can apply to the autoshow cars, which effectively defeats the whole purpose of having this small window of opportunity to get these cars on discount.

Agreed, aftermarket cars should rotate after a certain amount of time has passed. That's something PGG needs to fix because the way it is now, it's not the way to go about it. The fact the cars were only offered on a slight discount doesn't help matters either.

It's a great idea, but they bottled the execution.
