That’s from the Ford Dually pick up.

There’s a rumor it’s gonna be a Hot Wheels month. Which means I’ll probably have to force myself to play, because those rumored cars suck.

So not necessarily Hot Wheels originals but rather cars from the Legends tour. That should be cool. Especially the 2JetZ(inaugural winner) and The Nash(2nd year winner). Very interesting if the rumors of a 3rd expansion being another Hot Wheels are tied into this pack.

Also, we would get the pack in addition to the prize cars this next series?

Garbage company that does not fix the most important game problems and does not communicate with customers

lmao

When I go to a restaurant and the food taste bad I change the restaurant. I never go to the same restaurant just to tell others that the food taste bad. There’s a chance others may like it in which case I would sound dumb.

But please name just one other game developer that listen to their fans more than T10/PG do? From most requested cars to banning certain cars from online, garage space, specific issues, apologizing when certain problems couldn’t be addressed in time, countless fixes, and so on. But I know… there will always be one guy.

Has there been any announcement about the problem with the livery import?
This bug has been bothering many players since last November.

Fix coming with this update, mentioned at the end of the S32 Update livestream: https://youtu.be/URaA5R-zYHo?t=1253

Edit: The Release Notes identify the fix for changing liveries, which is a separate issue. The Known Issues section for Identified and Investigating still lists "Players are not able to import designs from other games such as Forza horizon 3 and Forza Motorsport 7. "

In the video, he says that it’s an issue where the game crashes downloading a livery. But I think they were referring to the inability to import liveries and tunes from previous titles. Which I’ve been watching out for for as well, as I play with the import feature quite a lot.

Apparently, you were right.
They haven’t fixed the import bug yet. This means that the bug will remain unfixed for 1/3 of a year.

Yeah, and only the livery import is listed under known issues too, even though I opened a ticket for the tune import feature being broken, and they closed it as a known issue.

Is that Mustang 1000 the one from the Need For Speed movie? Very underrated movie

No, this is another Shelby special edition Mustang. I’m not sure who did the customization on the Mustang you’re talking about, but it looked good, had Hellcat Redeye-esque hood vents. Shelby did customize a Mustang for NFS The Run tho!

The 1000 is a lovely car and I hope they nail the engine noise like they did in FH. It was fun to drive also because you really had to control the throttle.

Definitely happy with this looking like a Shelby series, despite only bringing in 2 cars. With the addition of the GT500 they knocked my personal wishlist out. SVJ is the last car I was wanting in the game.

I was actually just playing FH the other day was wondering if they would ever bring it back, well that was serendipitous.

Nope, it’s the Shelby 1000 from 2012, I think. It was DLC for FH1 and one I never owned, so I’ll be glad to get my hands on this one.

i’m happy with those cars. it’s nice to have the 1000 back in FH.
