If EA does a good Season Pass like DriveClub then I am sure we will get plenty of great cars.

That's not the final list as there hasn't been an official announcement from Ghost EA yet. That being said, it will likely be the final list. Missing some big names there, (350Z, Audi, Aston Martin, etc) but they will likely be a part of the expected expansions.
Given how you an only own 5 cars at a time and you'll basically be upgrading them from scratch each, 51-60 possible cars is enough for now.
BMW M3 (E46), Subaru BRZ, Skyline R34, Honda NSX and Lamborghini Murcielago are enough for me to toy around with.
Best wishes.

Pretty nice car list. One notable omission is the 350z, which they could've fit in rather than the various skylines, given that it was a noughties staple of drift culture and fronted the last driving focused F&F film.

The list might not be final. A couple weeks ago it had zero Toyotas, now there's three.
I'm sorry, but I thought I made it clear that I don't have anything against Japanese and European cars, I like all types of cars, so the sarcasm is unnecessary.
I don't believe that many muscle cars were exported in the late 60s and early 70s either, so it's understandable they aren't as popular in other markets. But in the last few years I've known of quite a few people personally who have sold muscle cars and even American cars from the 50s that have been shipped to Europe.
Also the game takes place in a fictional southern California, it would be a little different if the game were set in Japan. (Which would be awesome by the way)
True but still.. Anyway those BMW's got me hyped really quick.

The car list is passable if this plays like an arcade style game but with all of the sliders for control it makes me think this will be more sim-like than I care for. For those that were in the beta, how did this game handle? Was it more like Underground, or did it handle like Shift? I really only want to get this if it handles at least like FH2 did which is about as sim-like as I go. I prefer arcade style racing overall.

It feels like the right amount of cars, given the car detail and number of body kits that will be in the game. It also seems like there is a car for everyone, old, new, japanese, euro, american muscle, hatchbacks, saloons, supercars etc.
but it's a little too much "the usual suspects". I mean going for that car count in the game will inevitably lead to people saying "why is there no Audi?", "Why no Lexus?" etc. but what's really missing are the unusual suspects: The super cars that aren't in other games or the cars that are boring and common but some professional tuners made great. I'd count like 3-4 cars into that category and the rest is "I've driven that car in GT, FM, DC, PGR and multiple previous installments of NFS, I'm kinda over it, do you not have anything else for me in that car list that feels fresh?"

interested in a lot of those cars. but what really bugs me is how car games opt to use the older style (but same model generation) of some cars. why not use the 98 civic type r? or 05 integra and 02 nsx? its the same way in forza 6 too. also wtf at no 350/370z. awesome they included the r32 but why not the r33? and they picked the worst version of the sti =(

It was arcade-y to me though you couldn't speed turn corners at max speed. People had issues with the fundamentals of the handling but I'm not versed in racing so I can't really say.

Only 4 GTRs? disappointed.gif
Nice that they have both Initial D and Wangan Midnight covered with the AE86 and Fairlady Z.

Aside from a severe lack of 350/370Z, that is pretty damn solid list. Just the tuning aspect of the game is enough to make me consider picking up the game at PC launch, though lots depends on how busy I'm personally then. I had a brief play session at GDC and I felt the core game was solid enough for me to not care that much about the always-online aspect (even though I still think it sucks for this particular game especially).
It's an Supra SZ-R though. I wonder who the hell decided they wanted the non-turbo mk IV Supra in the game. I guess since it's a game about tuning, it's not a huge deal, but what a baffling fucking decision lmao.

Got an NSX-R so I'm happy
It's the 6th gen hatchback (EK9). I like the EP3 design more but this is great too.
Good list, lots of rare cars not seen in other games which is nice. The fact that you can extensively modify them visually, something I wish Forza would do-those wide body kits look incredible, greatly helps because there aren't hundreds of different cars. I'm actually pretty hyped for this.

I might have to get it for the Volvo 242 alone, lol.

Sweet. Would've preferred the coupe over the hatchback though, God damn that coupe was beautiful
