Gift Car: Halloween Viper




Announced in the 10-30-16 Week in Review, this car is an award to participants of the 2016 Halloween Bash. The design was painted by Little Vixen and is not native to the car, so if you remove the livery by attempting to paint the car, you won't be able to recover it.

MOVEMBER looks to be a fantastic month of Forzathon ... looking forward to it ;)

So, does this mean that the issue with the rivals not updating lap times had been resolved? As much as I would like to participate, I'm not sure it's worth any effort if my time is not recorded, or updated, as has been the case recently.

NOvember, sure looks like YESvember to me!

Gift Car: 1992 Honda NSX-R with dragon livery






These two 1992 Honda NSX-R cars were gifted to VIPs on November 1, 2016 as the October gift car benefit. Both were painted by Ayo Jube, with a slight variation in logos for Rocket Bunny and Liberty Walk. To collect these gifts, go to your in-game Message Center and Download the gift to your garage.

The designs are not native to the car, so if you remove the livery by attempting to paint the car, you won't be able to recover it. The cars may not show the liveries in the preview window in your garage. They can be identified by the "NEW" icon on the preview box. Buying and installing an upgrade part such as wider tires can make the livery show up in preview.

Thanks

I don't know the answer to that; maybe we'll get an answer in the Week in Review later today.

Forza Racing Championship Week 3

Edited by user Saturday, November 5, 2016 11:43:45 PM(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

So a xbox live gold account is required to get those cars ?

I think if you play on PC it is not needed, but it is needed on console.

You always need Xbox Live Gold for online play when it comes to Xbox consoles,

Rival events don't need a gold account. And in fm6 I won several cars in similar contests without gold. So I'm a bit disappointed by this change

That's strange coz when I was trying to do that I'm FM6 when my gold had ran out it said that I needed a active gold subscription

Indeed it's strange, I got several race lamborghini during rival events for example, and I never have a gold account :/

Still no info on when we'll be getting the rewards from the Rivals events?

Are the cars being shipped?
I ran in 3 weeks and received no cars!

Any info on that Amazon monthly rivals thingy?
