As the title states. Post up a picture of both the Forza and real versions! Give us some impressions on how accurate you think Turn 10 did as well.

I have an 08 Mazdaspeed 3 but I only have experience with FM3, will update later.

Used to own a 1995 GTI VR6, will comment later.
 
I have a 2005 (B6) Audi A4 1.8T Quattro 6speed USP (S-Line in EU).
Closest car is the B6 Audi S4. I've upgraded my real car to B6 S4 Brakes (calipers, better pads/braided lines/fluid) and imported German spec S4 BiXenon ECodes. The Caracter

My former cars were a 97 (mk3) VW Golf in Windsor Blue. The 2 door GTI VR6 and Windsor Blue is there but... the car I bought in game was Jazz Blue cuz I always loved that color. Before that was a small bumper 87 mk2 VW GTI 8V, and the one in the game is a big bumper (90-92) VW GTI 16V.

Not exact cars but close enough and better counterparts :P
 
My car is sort of in there. I have a 2000 SLP Firehawk which was an aftermarket tuner package available as an OEM option on the Pontiac Trans Am. Before being shipped to SLP my car was a 2000 Trans Am WS6 which is nearly identical to the 2002 in the game. No screen shots to compare but here's a photo of a WS6 then a photo of my car.

I worked on a WS6 at school. I think it was a '99? It was the same body style and the same color. Awesome car with the LS1. Put some nitrous on it and got 330HP or so.

My car (exact model and year too) is in the game but I haven't purchased or tested it. Will post pics later.
 
330 with nitrous? that sounds very low. was it a high mileage car? These cars routinely dyno 300+ at the wheels stock. mine should be between 400 and 440. I need to get it on a dyno one of these days.

Mine has the T56 six speed, it's the factory equipped manual. Same trans as the Viper or Aston Martin V12 Vanquish. no slushbox for me.

Don't underestimate these cars in game either. the LS1 is mounted so low and far back in the car that the front face of the engine block is in line with the center of the front wheels. There's also a lot of weight savings to be had in the game. Getting these under 3k lbs makes them rockets in Forza. Like the vette the 2002 Trans Am is fiberglass and composites from front to back. Hood, fenders, bumpers, doors(not just the skins but the entire door) the hoop behind the glass tops, the spoiler.... only metal body panels are the rear quarters. If you can deal with the tail happy nature of the live axle or are willing to tune it to behave then there is a LOT of potential in this car.
 
I own a Nissan 04' 350Z Track Coupe but I think just the regular 350Z is inside the game. I noticed it was a car on Disc 2 that I didn't install until this morning haha.

According to Wikipedia, seeing I don't know exact figures, it is rated at 320 HP but that'd be to the flywheel. But yes, it is a school car and it was bought used. I think it had maybe 70k miles. But it gets dyno'd a few times a week then modified, then dyno'd again. So it may not have a lot of miles but being that its only life for a few years is solely at WOT on a dyno, the engine is garbage. Plus, it was an automatic. :mad:
Me, I love the firebird but prefer the '72 Trans-Am.

For the most part it's really close, but the stock wheels look horribly fake (not pictured).

You are correct that 325 would be the factory rated flywheel hp. but it's well known that they were grossly underrated by GM. It's essentially the same LS1 that was in the vette from 97-2004. In the vette it was rated at 345. at 345 putting more than 300 to the wheels is easy. and as many magazines found out 325 was a very conservative rating on the F-body. especially considering that some magazines got Trans ams to run 12.9 seconds in the quarter and as fast as 4.9 0-60 right off the showroom floor. firehawks even pulled in excess of .9g's on the skidpad stock.

How does it compare to the game? Honestly cannot tell you. Car has had $3000 into the wheels and suspension alone for many years now so I don't exactly remember how it felt stock. Not that I owned it new. I think I am owner #5 of that car.
 
I owned a 2010MazdaSpeed3 back when I lived in the states. And I owned half of an E46 M3 competition package. I'll be testing those tonight when I get Forza 4 in my hands!

Pretty much what my current car looks like, mine is an 08 non GT same color and wheels though. Too bad the pics of my actual car are on my other computer... Need to make a Jetta like my old one.
 
Nope, it seems Turn10 wasn't too keen on including a 20 year old Diesel truck. Not sure why, it has a turbo on it. :p

Indeed.

Well I think T10 did a pretty good job on the handling aspects of it. However the sound of it isn't really like what a good 3 inch exhaust is.
 
I`ve owned a `97 Trans Am WS6 since it had 20,000KMH on it. I took the `02 Trans AM WS6 and souped it up to A class and can get top 100 times in it!
 
My 2006 Mazdaspeed 6 wasn't in Forza. My 2010 Volkswagen CC isn't in Forza.

No shortage of POS like the Honda Fit, though.

Life's a bitch then you die.

👍 I love LS1 Trans-Ams. Two of my friends have them and I wanted one before the new GTO's came out. Think I may still get one down the road. ANyway, here's mone...

I have unopened FM4 sat here in front of me...at work, got my wheel in the trunk and heading to some friends so we can play in peace away from my Mrs.

So I haven't had a chance to take a picture of the car in the game but here she is in real life;

You should take that photo at Sedona. I think the lighting will match better with the RL photo.
 
Yeah, My phone camera was also acting kinda funny, but I definitely agree whit you.:tup:I just wanted a quick picture to see what its all about.:)
 
Don't know why they'd bother with an old Accord...so no. But it has my Dad's 2008 Accord Euro (Acura TSX, although Dad's Euro only has the K24 rather than the V6) and the Teardrop WRX like SIC EM (though SIC EM wasn't an STi like the Forza one is).
