The Cars of Forza 5

Welcome to the Cars Section of the SuperCheats Unofficial Guide and Walkthrough for Turn 10s Forza Motorsport 5, the newest (and some say best) game in the Forza series. From here on when we need to reference the name of the game we will use FM5 just to save time and your eyes -- and you should know that we think FM5 is the best game in the series so far, but we are so used to Turn 10 surprising us that we have very little doubt that FM6 will be even better!

Before we get to the Cars that make up the stable in FM5s base game though, there are some rumors we think should be addressed straight away, since they are pernicious in their intent and effect, and appear to be gaining traction among newcomers to the Forza community when clearly, as they have no substance or evidence to back them up (hence the term “rumors”) that it would be a disservice not to address the issues that they have created.

Rumors about the Base Game Car Stable

When FM5 first released there was a collective gasp when the intimate list of Tracks and Cars were finally revealed, and it seems as is often the case in events like that, the rumor mill instantly swung into overdrive, and the web was alive with so wide a variety -- many of the rumors referenced each other while at the same time contradicting each other -- that it was very hard to make sense of any of it.

The fact that the rumors consisted of little more than speculation -- there were no “facts” on offer other than the facts that FM5 had a smaller number of Tracks and a smaller stable of Cars than the previous games -- but the folks behind the rumors made very good use of those two facts in launching both attacks and speculations -- which they phrased as factual conclusions.

Obviously we cannot address every rumor but we can address the more pernicious and destructive of them, starting with the ones that suggest that this is all a money-making scheme.

First -- and foremost -- we thought it would be sensible to point out to you that Turn 10 and Microsoft plan to make money from the sale of DLC. That is, after all, a well-established and accepted formula for the revenue stream for the modern video game. Seriously, it would be odder still if they did NOT plan to release DLC packs!

The notion therefore, that they intentionally created and released the game with a smaller than practical number of Tracks and a smaller than desired stable of Cars specifically so that they could make more money by selling you, the player, the elements of the game that somehow the rumor mongers feel should be a free and included part of the game at its release, well, we have to wonder at that.

It would be one thing if Turn 10 made all sorts of promises about what would be in the game at launch, and then failed to deliver on them, and then later offered the objects they promised but required the player to pay extra for them. That would be bad, but despite the way that these carefully crafted rumors were structured to suggest that this is what has happened, it is not. None of that is true.

When FM5 released it released as a complete game. It is true that the game required a massive zero-day patch (we talk about that elsewhere in the guide) but, once that patch is installed, the game is fully functional and playable and that function and play does NOT require payment of extra funds!

The Car Facts as we Know Them

According to Microsoft's spokespeople and the representatives from Turn 10, the game was released in a smaller and more intimate atmosphere in part due to time constraints in the development path, and the effort to make the game available as a Launch Day Title for Microsoft's new Xbox One game console.

They managed to do it, but it required that some of the Tracks that had originally been intended to be included as part of the base game did not make it into the base game. Likewise it seems that some of the Cars that were intended to be in the base game are not.

Considering the amazing job that was done not just to include each car that IS part of the game as a full and interactive element and the fact that they made sure that the variety of Cars and types was more than sufficient to address the needs of each race type and environment, we think they did a hell of a job.

It takes a particularly annoying sort of person to tell you things that they do not actually know are true in a way that makes it seem that they know they are speaking the truth. It takes an entirely different sort of person to admit that they do not know what the truth is, and refuse to speculate until more information is at hand. Which would you rather hear from? Yeah, us too.

So with that in mind, we suggest that you all treat the issue of the rumors that are in circulation with respect to the intimate Tracks list and car stable the same way that we have chosen to: accept and be happy with what we have, and wait to see what is added later.

The Whole Enchilada

And now back on the subject of the master list of Cars in FM5 -- included below is the full list of the cars that make up the stable for the base game in FM5 as well as all of the cars that were added in addition to it.

If you are only interested in just the Cars that came with the base game, you will find that list at the end of this section, properly marked as such.

Please bear in mind that the list below does not differentiate between the Cars with respect to their origins -- you can find that information following the list, in which all of the different sources are detailed, with lists of their own, in order to provide what I like to think of as a helpful if logical presentation so that you can, if you so desire, go directly to the sources for specific cars in order to add them to your game!

I. The Master FM5 Car List

Note: Cars that have no fifth marker in the listing are part of the base game stable, while cars that do have a fifth marker in their listing came from one of the expansion, DLC, or special sources.

LANCIA

OK you know how Fiat has pretty much bought every decent car maker in Europe and a few of the indecent ones? Yeah, they own Lancia too... Sigh. But back in 1906 when it was founded as an independent car maker it was called Lancia Automobiles S.p.A. and was to Italy what DeLorean almost was to America...

When Vincenzo Lancia created the company in 1906 his eye was on the early form of rally and road racing that was just then catching fire in Europe -- and he was so serious about each of the hand-crafted and nearly custom designed (he was known for changing small elements of each production run while their lines were live) he made it a point to drive each model in races himself (but then both Vincenzo Lancia and his partner in Lancia Motors, Claudio Fogolin were semi-retired professional racers, so duh?!

• Stratos HF Stradale (1974) 55,000 CR -- D-Class -- LBB

LAND ROVER

Before it started to produce what are decidedly the finest luxury SUV's on the world market, Land Rover was in the business of designing, engineering, building, and selling incredibly reliable and rugged high-performance utility trucks for use in what it termed specialized agriculture. To put this in perspective for you, the sheep station my family owns in Oz still has four of the original five 1953 Series 1 Rovers that my grandfather bought brand new in 1953 -- I have no doubt we would still be using all five if one had not been destroyed in a bush fire... They really are THAT tough and reliable!

• Range Rover Supercharged (2012) 71,000 CR -- C-Class

LEXUS

Did you know that Lexus started out as a super-top-secret luxury-performance-sedan research project in 1983 that was codenamed “F1” at the even more super-top-secret car design, development, and testing facility of Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation? Too right it did!

The results of the secret testing and development was the brand “Lexus” and its flagship freshman offering the 1990 Lexus LS (sold during the tail-end of the 1989 model year. One of the questions that the project was intended to answer was would the Japanese consumer purchase a luxury car from a Japanese auto manufacturer? The answer was yes.

• IS F (2009) 56,000 CR -- B-Class

• LFA (2010) 380,000 CR -- A-Class

LOTUS

Since 1996 the Lotus brand has been owned by Proton Industries (a subsidiary of DRB Hicom) and is best known for its record-setting Elise, Exige and Evora models of lightweight high-performance sports and racing Cars that all pretty much hover around the qualification of Supercar... If driving one feels like you are flying down the highway, well that is probably because the cars are designed, built, and tested at the company test track located at former World War II fighter base RAF Hethel!

• Exige S (2012) 93,000 CR -- B-Class

MASERATI

The question we must ask Joel Walsh is simple: does his Maserati really do 185MPH? And if so does he know this from first-hand experience? Founded in 1914 the Italian luxury car maker became yet another casualty of Fiat in 1993 but that changes noting in terms of joie de vivre with which every model is designed. We are just saying...

• GranTurismo S (2010) 130,000 CR -- C-Class

• MC12 (2004) 620,000 CR -- A-Class -- STP

• Tipo 61 Birdcage (1961) 1,540,000 CR -- C-Class

MAZDA

The 15th largest auto maker in terms of production worldwide, Mazda specializes in a mixture of markets, while commercial vehicles and transportation-class Cars are its meat and potatoes, the company reputation for producing top-of-the-class racers started from the humble beginnings of a factory-sponsored Tuning shop and snowballed from there!

It is not so much that they created the best racing Cars -- they did not -- but rather they created the parts and exported the knowledge required to transform a car so that it gives the driver everything it is capable of - then a little bit more!

MCLAREN

Launched in 1989 as as McLaren Cars, McLaren Automotive -- commonly called just McLaren today -- is a British automotive manufacturer that creates high-performance vehicles including Supercars, producing a high-performance class of cars that are based upon Formula One tech and serves as proof-in-concept that brilliance in auto design will be rewarded!

MERCEDEZ-BENZ

Considered the most influential of Germany's “Big 3 Auto Makers” Mercedez-Benz is a company that seeks perfection in all that it does. It also is not afraid to smash barriers and walls when it feels it has a product that sets a standard for its type. Which is why in addition to manufacturing luxury automobiles and trucks, the company also makes high-quality very comfortable buses and coaches and, you might be surprised to learn, bicycles!

MERCURY

With the company named for the messenger of the gods of Roman mythology, if you got it in your mind that they made fast Cars well... Yeah. An auto marque of Ford Motor Company, the brand was launched in 1938 by Henry Ford's son Edsel, with the goal of offering entry-level luxury cars that fit between regular Fords and the Lincoln-brand.

• Cougar Eliminator (1970) 52,000 CR -- D-Class

MINI

Mini is basically a British autom marque owned by BMW whose model line specialty is small Cars -- with its greatest success being its Cooper Line, which spans the “One” -- priced at entry-level, the “Cooper,” and “Cooper S”-- S being for-Sporty, and finally the “John Cooper Works” -- or JCW -- which is priced at the high-end of the spectrum.

• Cooper S (1965) 31,000 CR -- D-Class

• John Cooper Works (2009) 29,000 CR -- D

MITSUBISI

Formed in 1970 as the automotive division of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Motors was the sixth biggest Japanese automaker and the sixteenth biggest worldwide in terms of production. More importantly the company forged a close working relationship for the past 30-years with actor and all-around-limber fella Jackie Chan, who uses their vehicles almost exclusively in his movies. In honor of the Chanster the folks at Mitsu came up with The Jackie Chan Cup -- an annual celebrity auto race for motor journalists and starlets from across Asia -- seriously!

NISSAN

While they don't have a deal -- or race -- involving Jackie Chan, they do have a really long real name: Nissan Jidōsha Kabushiki-gaisha -- so how is that for cool? During the 1964 Summer Olympics, Nissan held a beauty competition to choose five candidates as the first class of Nissan Miss Fairladys, modeled after "Datsun Demonstrators" modeling group used to introduce new model Cars in the 1930s, the winners served as sponsors of the Datsun Fair Lady 1500.

OLDSMOBILE

Founded by Ransom E. Olds in 1897, Oldsmobile was the oldest surviving American automobile marque -- in fact it was one of the oldest in the world followed by Daimler and Peugeot.. Sadly the closing of the Oldsmobile division in 2004 ended that reign.

• Hurst/Olds 442 (1968) 44,000 CR -- D-Class

PAGANI

Founded in 1992 this new kid on the block has a reputation for working with new and high-tech materials including Carbon Fiber -- and worked with the other top European car makers to develop new material applications for the industry, taking what it learned in projects with Daimler and Lamborghini when they designed the Zonda.

• Huayra (2012) 1,000,000 CR -- S-Class

• Zonda Cinque Roadster (2009) 940,000 CR -- S-Class

PEUGEOT

Following the end of World War II the company went through a series of changes, and dealt with family vs family infighting that might have made a soap opera proud, a situation that maintained until the 1970s when the company was taken over by Citroën and Chrysler Europe. After struggling through the 90s the car maker has made inroads into Asia as a new leaner more profitable operation - but at the cost of almost generic appearing model lines. Sigh.

PLYMOUTH

Previously a brand of produced by the Chrysler Corporation and its successor Daimler-Chrysler, the Plymouth marque did not survive the reductions and cost trimming that swept the company clean, and was discontinued on June 2001 in the US. During its final model year only the Neon remained under the Plymouth marque - but some lines lived on, with the Prowler and the Voyager being transferred to Chrysler for continued manufacturing.

• Cuda 426 HEMI (1971) 200,000 CR -- D-Class

PONTIAC

Launched in 1926 as a companion brand for General Motors, Pontiac surprised the parent company by quickly overtaking it in popularity, a feat it managed to duplicate more than once with different special model lines, particularly with its performance-enhanced models like the 1956 Star Chief, 1969 GTO :Judge”, 1978 Trans Am, 1988 Fiero GT, as well as a number of its Bonneville models, and several G8 models. Its loss means the loss of an iconic vision in the industry.

RADICAL

Founded in January 1997 by amateur drivers and engineers Mick Hyde and Phil Abbott, Radical was created to build open-cockpit sports Cars that could be registered for both road and track use without any modifications. Following the initial model runs the company began to produce built-for-track models (not road-legal) such as their SR line.

• SR8 RX (2011) 330,000 CR -- R-Class -- ALP

RENAULT

Justifiably famous for both its support of -- and multiple models engineered for -- Road Rally Racing as well as its long support for Formula One racing, throughout the 80s and 00s the company won numerous awards for engineering excellence as well as supporting motor sports throughout Europe.

RUF

One of the more misunderstood car makers at least from the American point of view, Ruf Automobile GmbH is recognized as a manufacturer by the German government because even though it starts with unmarked chassis purchased from Porsche, the actual mechanicals down to the engine configuration are the product of RUFs own engineering and manufacturing, creating Cars that serious racers consider to be unique.

SALEEN

A rare and beautiful snowflake, Saleen is an American company whose business is designing and engineering --- and then hand-building its line of high-performance sports Cars and high-performance automotive parts. Based out of Corona, California, Saleen contributed to the sport of auto racing on multiple levels, both for its award winning limited edition, high-performance vehicles and willingness to work with race teams to custom designs and fabricate parts.

• S7 (2004) 350,000 CR -- A-Class

SCION

Launched in 2002 by Toyota Motor Corporation for the North American market, social culture experts consider Scion and its Cars to be the first cars that were designed and manufactured specifically for Generation Y consumers -- a generation that is often snidely referred to as the “Wait, do I like that? Do I?” generation. Though the brand enjoyed significant success thanks to its guerrilla and viral marketing campaigns, the economic downturn combined with changes in the cultural outlook of the Net Generation -- and its genuine uncertainty in its struggle to find an identity ultimately doomed the brand to mediocrity.

SHELBY

Just silently reading the name of this company in your mind causes your body to react, sprouting hair on your chest and causing an incredible thirst for beer and steak - which can be a very disturbing experience for female vegan racing fans -- just saying... The current generation of Shelby re-manufacturing services operates under the nom de automobile Shelby American, and among its signature services produces its anniversary edition of its iconic 427 Cobra and GT350.

SUBARU

The company that brought affordable rally Cars to the world's largest demographic -- working class and blue collar racers -- thanks in part to its specialized and strategic partnerships including the competition parts design and engineering labs at STi, Its pursuit of and continued refinement of the boxer engine layout that has become its signature for models displacing above 1500cc, as well as its choice of all-wheel-drive drive-train layout he company managed to create a solid line of winners for off-road and rally racing.

TOYOTA

Due to its staunch support of a wide range of auto sports -- including strip and drag racing in Asia, as wellas class-based road sport competitions like International Drift Leagues among others, but in particular its continued support of rally racing, Toyota has been widely recognized as a friend of auto sports. Its admirable insistence on entering examples of its alternative fuel lines in modern road and rally racing competitions not only has proven that these unlikely entries can compete, it speaks well of Toyota and its plans to continue to support auto racing after the internal combustion engine has seen its sunset.

TVR

Officially founded in 2013 (but historically the company claims roots that go back to 1947) TVR is one of a dying breed of car maker -- the Independent car maker. Relying upon in-house engineering in what can only be described as a crafts-based studio manufacturing process, this UK-based company manufactures high-performance and lightweight sports Cars with powerful engines. The traditional TVR creation sports tubular steel-frames construction that is cloaked in fibreglass bodywork and powered by either the in-house designed straight-6-cylinder or in-house designed V8 engines.

Previous lines include their Ultima Sport and Ultima Spider lines.

VAUXHALL

One of the only modern car manufacturers to fully embrace the digital age, Vauxhall allows its customers to design and order their car via the company website, using its “Configurator” app which allows for full options customization -- and hey, when is the last time you were able to custom order your new car while nude? While it is still technically GMs UK face, Vauxhall is really a British auto maker and distributor headquartered in Luton, Bedfordshire that offers a unique collection of model lines created specifically for the UK market and driving environments. Still, naked, right?

VIPER

So yeah, what is all the excitement about with the SRT Viper anyway? Wait, did I say SRT Viper?! Excited! Seriously, what used to be the Dodge Viper is now its own car line, with a clever evil-looking snake-about-to-chomp medallion and a takes-no-prisoners attitude that can only be had in no small part due to its signature V10 power plant, what can you say? Whoa?!

VOLKSWAGEN

Founded as the Gesellschaft zur Vorbereitung des Deutschen Volkswagens mbH as part of the official government-sponsored economic recovery program, just under a year later the name was changed to simply Volkswagenwerk to mark the wildly successful project that had the positive effect of putting Germans back to work, while also putting more of them behind the wheel of their own car per capita than had every been the case in Germany before, when the very first Volkswagen Type 1 rolled off of the assembly line in 1938 who would have known it was to be the first in a very long line of precision-made affordable German automobiles?

Notes: The following Promotions (so far) have contributed Cars to the FM5 stable:

(1) Microsoft pre-release email promotion -- prior to the launch of FM5 select gamers received an email from Microsoft's LIVE Team with a code for a free 2010 Audi R8. It appears that the code was sent to gamers who have previous versions of the series games in their played lists.

(2) Pizza Hut UK launched a 10,000 code give-away website for the UK/Ireland that offered a code for the 2011 McLaren MP4-12C - the same version as the Day One Edition one. The offer has expired as all of the codes have been given away it seems.

(3) Soft drink Mountain Dew is offering a code for a free FM5 car to consumers who enter the cap codes from specially marked products to redeem points that can be spent on the car code. Details can be found on the official event site at every2minutes.com.

The Future Stable

Judging by the recent release of the monthly pack plus the themed packs there will be no shortage of official paid DLC Cars. The Honda Pack suggests that we can also anticipate FREE car packs from sponsored deals -- hey, Porsche! You listening?!

Seriously though, the future expansion of our garages in FM5 looks to be secure - so we will keep updating the stable as they arrive!
