Fast forward to 5:35 of this. Then prepare to have your mind blown. Or do it the other way around, either way.

Even the engine sound is perfect. :shock:



Thanks to Martin for getting this to me via the MVS Facebook page.

It even kicks the tail out and spins the front tires in corners just like the real thing :D

I've read about the work they put in to making the cars realistic. It was a considerable amount.

I played Forza 1 a bunch at my past employer, an ad agency in Seattle. It was really fun. Foosball too.

Looks like you have to buy it :evil: as part of the Alpine Allstars DLC pack:
The following sets of wheels, showcased below, will set you back 560 Microsoft Points:
2011 Mercedes-Benz #35 Black Falcon SLS AMG GT3
2011 Aston Martin #009 Aston Martin Racing AMR One
2012 Jaguar XKR-S
1995 BMW M5
2011 Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S
1985 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE
1972 Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3
1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible
1997 Volvo 850 R
2012 Scion tC

However, from Googling a bit it looks like the game comes "stock" with two S60 R's, a C30 R Design and... wait for it... a 242 Turbo. Nice.
