As John and WD have stated, the Clue Thread is strickly for guessing the answers for each of the clues that were provided.

I've made this thread as a safe haven for discussion of the clues.

Here are the clues if you don't remember:

Clue 1 Car 1

Race bred for your safety!

Clue 1 Car 2

This ain't your mama's Explorer but it does have an Ecoboost motor.

Clue 1 Car 3

Public safety be damned, they should have built it.

Clue 1 Car 4

I ate too much over the holidays. Did you?

Clue 1 Car 5

SpiralCell Technology makes Optima batteries some of the best you can buy.

Clue 1 Car 6

Paid for and fueled by caffeine.

Clue 1 Car 7

Should you reach this peak, the ride will be well worth the price.

Also, John recently posted this:

"That said. I only see a couple correct answers so far. One being the obvious giveaway.

Oh, and here's another clue or two. With the I8 being a hero car don't expect it to share a pack with anything like the Chiron. And we are NOT adding any Kias this month nor are we bringing in any new brands like Optima into FH3, go deeper people. Come on drifters you can figure this one out, who knows you might even be happy with it."

Please keep the discussion profanity free and please don't get into aguements, it's not worth it.

As I just realized on the clue thread, Clue 7 may refer to the Renault Alpine A310 that was leaked (Alpine "peak").

Where was this leaked?

It was discovered immediately pre-launch in some gameplay footage, essentially a bunch of cars that eventually became DLC showed up in the autoshow for the review copies, some with names, others with only PI levels. I can't find the specific video, but here's where they begin to be discussed on the car list thread:

https://forums.forzamoto...rs-added--finally.aspx?=

It's been very accurate so far. There aren't many cars off of the list that have not yet appeared. The Alpine is one of them.

OK thanks! Imma go check it out!

I wonder if any of the other "leaked" vehicles fit any of the other clues?

Although ben, the Alpine does make sense for clue 7.

I am sticking with my Hoonicorn Mustang guess

Yes it could be this one, but they also refer to the price of the car which should be expensive. But the A310 isn't so expensive

I dont really see how any of those clues pertain to drifting other than #6 could be any one of the Drift cars sponsored by a energy drink company or the Hoonicorn

For the first car I would have gone with the Caparo T1, but since they are not adding new brands, I remain clueless...

Car 2 is probably the Ford Explorer Police Interceptor.

Car 3 could be a new TVR, such as the Speed 12 that was a real monster and banned for public safety reasons.

Car 4 could be a Mercedes G65 6x6? Oversized... On the other hand, if we fall for the cheap joke, "I ate..." sounds pretty much like i8...

Car 5 is the BMW i8. Or not if car 4 is the i8. Then I would go for the Tesla Model X.

Car 6 could be the 1965 Ford Mustang Coupe that would be tuned into the mighty Hoonicorn.

For Car 7, I am sure they are referring to Pikes Peak, so I place my bet on Peugeot with their 208 T16 or maybe the 205 T16 PP or the 405 T16 PP. Audi maybe, with the Quattro Pikes Peak, but that would be a lot variants for the Quattro. And Toyota with their Tacoma Pikes Peak.

And about leaked cars, I remember seeing a tiny bit of the frond end of a Porsche 911 in the car-meet announcement. Maybe is Porsche coming with a future DLC, or with the next Expansion?
