What exactly is the Amazon preorder bonus? There's already an '08 and '11 WRX STi on the car lists I've seen around, which don't seem to include any of the other preorders like the CR-V or Clubman. Is the Amazon STi some unusual configuration?

Forza 4 has so many great features but I so miss 2's option to swap the SVT Focus with a 2.3 liter engine. I loved that car.

Yeah, I'm sort of disappointed that the number of crazy swaps available went down. Those didn't take any more effort to offer, the data for the engines are all still there to support the cars they're still in, just not offered in the same combinations.

It wasn't even crazy. I drive a 2.3 liter Focus.

Your other point probably explains it though as there's no vehicle in the lineup that comes with one stock.

(there could be if they'd include a Caterham :argh:

)

I also sent a request to GISH. My gamertag is Desmoseditious.

I just want to use this opportunity to say that Rota wheels suck major balls and shouldn't even be included in this game. They don't even know how to make their own style wheels and just steal designs from other manufacturers, and are known for low quality casting process.

Whenever I see Rotas on a track car an angel dies.

Thank you for reading my PSA.

Spoon won't sell anything in my bolt pattern.

I wish Forza at least included the Slipstream, if not real SW388s.

Anyone else have a love of making horrendously ugly tuners?

Is this based on a real car? Because I could be wrong but I don't think Nissan would ever be spelled out like that. It would be in English letters or it would be 日産. :spergin:

Aw man I'm sitting at 29 and now I've got to hit 30 as soon as possible.

There's actually a third choice there too. Shelby Cobra Daytona coupe.

I liked it better when it sounded like an easy choice.

This is actually the correct choice.

The GT40 is my first choice but buying it outright costs pocket change compared to the Daytona Coupe or the P4 so it feels like I shouldn't take it for free. :smithicide:

So I've been wondering about this for a while, but are these anime cars real? I.E. Do they exist?

E: Dumb question, it's Japan, of course it exists. Is it pretty prevalent though?

Anime is real.

The only thing I don't understand is why Forza or Gran Turismo doesn't simulate acceleration boosts from turbos, vtec engines, or toyota's vvtl-i engines.

It does. If you look at the dyno chart in the upgrade shop, engines with large turbochargers or variable valve timing have noticeable bends in the 4k-6k rpm area where that feature hits and the torque curve suddenly begins climbing faster.
