I find them ugly and meh. On the motorcycle side, I like them tho.

Audi is amazing. my top overall.

Alot of Japanese cars do have some pretty ugly styling imo (the Nissan Juke is one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen), but that's not the case with Mazda, at least imo. The Kodo design they're using on most of their vehicles right now is pretty great.

It's hard to like something you can't find on your country, Mazda just importing over here.

But it's a good design indeed.

Pretty sure I played a lot with Porsches on Forza 3. :(


You sure? I haven't seen Porches in Forza 3. Sure it wasn't the RUF cars? They look almost identical to Porche.

You're talking about RUF.


Forza 3 had 35 Porsche cars! 

Forza 4 had none.

Guess I didn't pay attention then

EA got the Porsche licence I think short before Forza 4 released, that's why there are no Porsches since Forza 4. There was a Porsche DLC for Forza 4 but no idea if MS had to pay EA a lot for that or how they managed it. I guess EA got a part of every sold DLC.

It's pretty annoying that you don't get cars of some manufacturers because they sell the exclusive rights to certain publishers. It's ok for sports games but for racing games I would wish that as example Porsche doesn't do that.

Ford and Land Rover are my favorite car companies. Not sure I could choose only one though.

Favorite High end car is the Nissan GTR though.

It's not ok for sports though

I guess I'm just used to it there so that I don't find it that bad but yeah, in the end it's the same. Selling the rights for the NFL or something else to different publishers would be also possible if the NFL would want that.

I believe that if sports federation granted rights to publishers without exclusivity, we would've have more sports games, with perhaps better quality than what's offered today. If Fifa did that soccer games could've been #morethanrosterupdates.
