Chevrolet Corvette Z06 '02 - Inaccurate car model (1728072)

This issue has persisted since the original Forza Motorsport game released on the original Xbox console.

The GIF comparisons below are taken in Forza Horizon 5, however the car model is the same as in the current Forza Motorsport release.

Hey Zo6, why so droopy? It’ll get better.

Here is the same car as it appears in the first Forza Motorsport. To my knowledge, it is also one of the oldest 3D models in the series, dating back to some of the first FM1 builds that were created around 2002 or 2003

The in-game model didn’t have the air dam underneath the front bumper. How depressing.

Right? Not to mention the black horizontal grills on the tail lights which were never on factory C5s

Gran Turismo had an accurate model of the C5 Z06 in GT5 and GT6. If it’ll come back to GT7, its model will be remade for sure.

From somebody who owns a C5 Z06 in real life!

before you start trying to find every single inaccurate car in forza, i’ll just spill the beans right away; a lot of original models from the first few games are just ported onto newer installements and are subdivided/polished. so long story short, anything that hasn’t been remodeled from FM1/FM2/FM3 (since they started using laser scanning only with FM4) is or HAS to be inaccurate to a certain extent. perfect example of that being the new 2.5 Soarer in FH5 versus the old SC300. they’re nearly identical but once you overlay the models there are slight differences that make the Soarer look truer to life. Hope this helps and have fun browing the dealership !

(edit: i just randomly stumbled across this thread as I was joking about the S15 with a friend and thought it could be valuable information in case you didn’t know!)

Exactly! Maybe T10 should ask them if they’d want their car laser-scanned! WIN-WIN!
