I remembered this thread ( http://zr1.net/forum/showthread.php?t=26116 ) that Billy Mild posted about the 1995 ZR-1 in Forza 6 and thought I'd post some pics of the Forza Horizon 3 version.

Stunning graphics and detail in this game. In the close up pictures, you can see they put in the 'orange peel' effect in the paint that these cars had from the factory. I was surprised to find they even put a VIN label on the door! Apparently, the Z in this game is #0000, so it's very rare, LOL. The only bad thing is they did not render the LT5, the hood doesn't open (there are other cars in this game where the hood does open to see the engine). :(

I put 17" Fikse FM5's on it and have gotten the power up to 632HP and weight to around 3350lbs. In the game I can get it to a little over 200MPH. It looks like the odometer is even functional, as it seems to be keeping track of how many miles I've driven this Z.

Anyway, here's the pics:

Yes, Horizon 3 is only available on the Xbox One and PC. Forza Horizon 2 though is available on the 360 now, though I don't know if the C4 ZR-1 is in that game, as I've never played that one. Horizon 2 is set in Italy/France, while Horizon 3 is set in Australia.

I also have that Corvette game and an original Xbox. That game though I think was made on a cheap budget, it doesn't seem very well made, even for the time period.

Horizon 3 has a pretty good selection of Corvettes. In addition to the C4 ZR-1, it also has the C3 ZR1, C5 Z06, C6 ZR1 & C7 Z06.

It's been out for a while now. I've already beaten the main game

I guess it's the Xbox 1 horizon bundle that's not come out yet.

That car looks great. I just tried to replicate my car in the game, except I would like to get more power.

I have never played a Forza Horizon game. I have heard mixed reviews. What do you think of the game?

I really like it. And the main thing I like about it is that it is an 'open world' game. That's one thing about racing games that always frustrated me a little bit in the past (before 'open world' was a thing), that you would see a city around you, or landscape, etc but you couldn't actually go there. You were forced to stay on pre-determined routes. There are still areas in the distance that you can't go, I found a few areas that when I tried to go there, the game would reset me back to the main area. Or there is a long wall you can't get over, or a long cliff. But inside the main area, you can basically go anywhere.

There is an old game called "Rush 2: Extreme Racing USA" for the N64 that was one of my favorite racing games (actually, liked the whole 'Rush' series). But not being open world, I would always try to find ways of getting outside the boundaries through glitches to drive where you 'weren't supposed to'.

And there are things to do besides just simply racing around a route/track trying to win a race or get the best time. Which for me, gets a bit boring after awhile, I like to explore and just cruise around sometimes.

The weather effects are cool too. For example, you might start out driving around on a beautiful sunny day and suddenly it starts clouding up and raining. And you see actual drops of water on your windshield and the wipers turn on automatically. Same thing happens if you drive through a river or something.

This is a good video a guy did comparing Forza Motorsport 6 to Forza Horizon 3. If you are similar to me with what I mentioned above, Horizon 3 is the one to get. But if you are more hard core racer, sounds like the driving is a bit more realistic in Forza 6.

I still think motorcity online was the best!

You need Win 10 to download and run it . Not sure that I want 10 on my gaming computer . But at the same time , I am severely ZR-1 deprived and having a sim version for the winter time would be oh so awesome . Will give it some thought ...

My laptop has 10 on it and once u shut all the spyware down , it seems pretty fast . Most of the guys I sim race with in rFactor2 are using 10 and they like it . I may have to grab a new SSD and put 10 on my pc with a dual boot into 7 and 10...

That's a shame the clam shell hood does not open . Maybe there will be an update . If enough people ask for it they might add that feature to the car .
