these are the week four cars of the Forza Showroom. This week, we welcome some old friends, acknowledge some leaderboard stars, and say hello to a new member of the Forza Motorsport series. Only 37 days remain until you can race these automotive icons on the amazing tracks of Forza Motorsport 5 powered by the Xbox One.
2012 Nissan GT-R Black Edition
This Japanese supercar delivers straight-line performance that can’t be beat by cars five times its price. In cornering, traction from its high tech all-wheel drive system delivers astounding grip and predictability. The GT-R’s looks make it a standout in any field and true import lovers will bow in its presence. There are only a handful of cars that will do anything but linger in the wake of its exhaust should they try to step to it on the track.

1967 Lamborghini Miura P400
Without the Lamborghini Miura, the term supercar may never have come to be. In an age when the only race-derived designs came from Ferrari, the Miura showed a new direction. The Miura was conceived and designed three of Lamborghini’s top engineers of the time. The result was a car whose form was revolutionary, and whose performance still thrills car lovers today. Forget the Sistine Chapel, this might be the highest form of Italian art.

2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series
When the top-of-the-line Mercedes coupe is lacking performance, you get the AMG. If the AMG is not enough then you have the Black Series. All the AMG, plus the 6.2-liter V-8 with 510 horsepower motor from the SLS AMG supercar, as well as handling and aerodynamics to make it pliable. Providing outstanding stability for all that power is a wider track in both the front and rear. For Merc lovers, it simply does not get any better than this.

2007 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione
From every possible angle, the 8C Competizione is a steel-and-carbon-fiber supermodel of the highest order. You might be surprised that it wasn’t designed by one of the famous Italian coachbuilders — it was designed in-house at Alfa Romeo’s own design center. As with anything, pure looks alone only prevail in pictures and magazines, so the Competizione remains true to its heritage in performance as well. Under the shapely hood, you will find a 450 horsepower V8 designed in cooperation with Maserati. This supermodel is ready to run with the best of them.
