It may be that it won't be up on the Store until the typical DLC time of 10am Pacific (1pm Eastern), so try looking again in a couple hours. EDIT: per Mechberg in this thread, look for this car on Tuesday (may not be available until after the game content releases, ETA after 10am Pacific) Edited by user Monday, March 6, 2017 10:40:51 AM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified ManteoMax.com spreadsheets \| Forza Calendars \| @ManteoMax

I can't find it in the store using your instructions. I live in scandinavia. Cheers :) "Let's see how you do in a crowd!" ஜ۩۞-{Forza Lifetime Member}-۞۩ஜ

Rank: C-Class Racing License		#9 Posted : Monday, March 6, 2017 9:11:59 AM(UTC) Yeah no GTA Spano anywhere. Must need the content update. Then again the free car that they gave away to FM6 gamers recently has still not appeared in my garage.

The last time they tried to slap a livery on a former DLC car then give it to everyone, things didn't go so well...... Here's hoping they learned from their Lamborghini #63 / #2 squadra whatever that thing was called fiasco..... "I really regret opening my mouth and talking to you." - Ricky Bobby

Rank: S-Class Racing License		#11 Posted : Monday, March 6, 2017 9:25:15 AM(UTC) Might be a nice addition for those, that don't have that one carpack. I have it, don't like it...don't need that livery. But it's nice for those that like it!

Rank: X-Class Racing License		#12 Posted : Monday, March 6, 2017 10:05:24 AM(UTC) I find it interesting they mentioned you don't need the Duracell car pack, but failed to mention the Spano is still a DLC car. I wonder if this car will be available for everyone, as it states, or only to those with the October car pack, which defeats the purpose of giving a free car. Things look fishy... Rules of troubleshooting: 1) Have you tried turning it off and on again? 2) Is your Internet working? 3) https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status < Check here for service issues. 4) If all else fails open a service ticket and/or forum post.

Rank: Moderator		#13 Posted : Monday, March 6, 2017 10:09:40 AM(UTC) I don't expect issues like the Hurcan - this is like previous separate livery versions (Pizza Hut Mustang, Mountain Dew Camaro, and the Rockstar Edition RZR in the game.) It will no doubt be treated as a separate car by the game. Whether it's a one time gift (like the Warthog DLC codes shortly after launch) or a full addition to the Autoshow, not sure yet.

Well apparently the GTA spano is going to be an actual download from the store which suggests everyone will get it. The 63 Lambo was not an actual download just a gift that appeared in your inbox thus the people did not already have the all stars car pack did not get the gift as the car was not physically in their game.

True, I suppose they could have modeled an entirely new car for this free car. Perhaps they learned from the Lambo debacle.

I'd hope that since it's a separate downloadable item, it doesn't fall victim to the same issue the Lamborghini had.

I agree, but some how people on here find anything and everything to complain about. "Some people" (who shall not be named) are actually complaining about it in the DLC thread, believe it or not. Because apparently paying for a normal, non-Duracell version of the vehicle and getting this version as an extra somehow means that you are entitled to a different, free car.
