They usually keep some of the best, exciting reveals for later.
Does anyone realize that they took many cars from one brand? I think they just reveal brands and ALL of their cars (could be areason why Audi, BMW, Chevy, Ford, Dodge, VW, Mercedes etc are missing). This one clearly revealed sport cars and track toys, I guess Muscle, JDM, Saloons etc are coming in another week.

I noticed this and I think you’re mostly right, except I think they’re holding back 90% of the new to Forza cars to announce late on. I’d be very surprised of we had none out of Chiron/Vanquish Zagato/Vantage GT8/Vantage AMR Pro/675LT/720S/812Superfast/LaFerrari Aperta/GT3 RS/911R/650S GT3/488 GTE/911 RSR/Vantage GTE/etc in the game at release.
I’d expect them to be DLC to be honest. Expect to see them as the hero cars for the monthly car packs.
The return of the DB4GT and the 911 GT1 Stassenversion is nice to see. The real gem of all this though, would be the 928 making an appearance!
Such a kick in the junk if that’s correct. What a joke.
T10 are good businessmen. I’ll give 'em that.
I hope I’m not right, but I think these are all the cars from these manufacturers. There are 46 Ferraris and 29 Porsches right now, I don’t think there will be more at release.
I doubt it. It’s supposed to have the largest list of Porsches ever and the expansion for FM3 had more than 29 Porsches.
They aren’t going to reveal everything at once, I’d be willing to be we will see more from both, or the very least Porsche.

This is definitely wrong, they said FM7 has more Ferraris than any other game ever, and Test Drive Ferrari Racing Legends had more than 50 if my memory serves me correctly. To beat that, they’d need to announce more Ferraris before release.
I remember them saying something like that about Porsches, not Ferraris.
Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed had 56 Porsches, and that came out 20 years ago. Even ignoring Ferrari, Turn10 does not have the most Porsches of any game unless they nearly double the amount they’ve announced.
That’s why T10 saying “most Porsches ever in any game” or “Most Porsches in any game” makes all the difference in the world. If they are saying “most Porsches ever” then yeah, they’ve got quite a lot of work to do on that front. If all they’re saying is “of all the new games being released, we have the most Porsches”, well, I guess that’s good but as I’ve said before: pretty sure that’s been the case for every F/FH that’s ever been released aside from FM5. Come to think of it, the more I consider that quote, the more I see a hint of desperation there as T10 tries to deflect away from the fact that not that many new cars are coming to the game and while other games may have less cars, they may actually have the more popular/frequently asked for ones; you’ve seen the big deal PCARS2 made about the McLaren 720S, although you could counter that with the big deal T10 made about the GT2 RS at E3.

T10 won’t be [Mod Edit - Abbreviated profanity, profanity and profanity that is disguised but still alludes to the words are not permitted - D] us around, by ‘any game’ they mean ‘any game in existence’. If they meant ‘any current game’, they’d have said so.
Yes, but many of those were slight variations of the same car. There were like 20 different versions of Porsche 356. If FM7 has many customizable body parts like they claim it will have, it will feel like a huge roster of Porsches.

Well I guess I’ll have to take your word for the time being. Can’t find that quote anywhere.
Dan Greenawalt said it in the E3 announcement, and it was pretty well documented in the launch coverage from various sites.

While I am glad to see the car list begin, from experience with previous Forza launches, aren’t each of these reveals supposed to pique our interest with amazing new vehicles? This seems more like “hey here’s some cars from previous Forza games, another porsche, oh and Ferrari nobody will drive.”
I would expect each week there would at least be one great vehicle to get the hype going, like the Lexus LC500 or Jaguar Project 8.
That being said, really excited for whatever new content is actually coming.

Oh we know, nobody’s going to drive the cars just because you don’t like them.

Setting aside your amazing sense of sarcasm and your inability to look at a information objectively, yes, I highly doubt that the Ferrari 612, a Ferrari even Ferrari enthusiasts tend to forget exists, is going to be a high point for much of anyone.
If you actually read what I was saying, my entire post is about Turn 10 not using the car reveals as a springboard for good advertising.
I’m guessing you missed my sarcasm as well smart guy
