March DLC Clue Thread

This is not a wish list. This is not a discussion thread. This is the March DLC Clue Thread!

By now you probably know the rules. But in case you are new to the DLC Clue Thread, here are a few pointers. Don’t post wish lists, keep banter to a minimum. Limit your posts to one for guessing, you may edit your post.

The cars will be announced on Monday and the car pack will be released on Tuesday.

Be sure to watch Johniwanna on the Tuesday Beam and Twitch broadcast to see the cars in action. The show starts as soon as the pack is out. If the clues get the better of you, and I hope they do, I will reveal the logic behind each of the clues in Monday’s Rear View Mirror story.

Now have fun! I will check in a couple times over the weekend to make sure you are not on your way to building a list of cars and deliver praise where it may be due.

March DLC Clue Thread

Clue 1: 69 dudes! - YouTube

Clue 2: You could get it with a diesel, but that would be way too practical.

Clue 2: John F. Kennedy said “Celebrate the past to awaken the future.” How you celebrate it is up to you.

Clue 3: No one really knows what happened to them, and that was not only a problem but a darn shame.

Clue 5: You might say finally, but you should just be thankful.

Clue 6: You know they had to be cool since they were being sold for a loss.

Clue 7: Crank it up dude!

Placeholder: guesses coming after some research :stuck_out_tongue:
1)

  1. Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio or Volvo 242 Turbo

  2. McLaren 675LT (i hope)

  3. BMW 507 - Nearly brought BMW to bankruptcy, each car sold at a huge loss

  4. Ford Deluxe Three Window or AMC Pacer (going out on a limb)

#5 DeLorean

Might be more guesses coming soon:

Clue #1- some car from 1969. Might be wishful thinking but how about a 1969 MGB GT

Clue #2- How about a Jaguar XE-S or whatever was in the leaks. That car has a diesel option.

  1. I don’t really have a clue so ima just guess the
    1969 ChevyVan

  2. Because a big V8 and a price of over 100000$ isn’t as practical i think it’s the
    Audi RS6 (first or second gen)

3.Might refer to the trackrecord breaking
2017 Lotus 3-Eleven

  1. This could be jensen who went bancrupt during the 70’s oil crysis so i’ll guess
    Jensen Interceptor

  2. There’s no real clue besides the car being wanted by the community and given we don’t have a hypercar in this pack yet it might be the
    Bugatti Chiron, the Zenvo ST1 or the Pagani Zonda R

  3. during four years only 252 instead of the projected 20000 cars were built resulting in 19 million $ (inflation adjusted) of loss in 1959 only. Still elvis presley actually owned two of those
    BMW 507’s

7.Pioneering on casted steel crank shafts this might refer to this hotrody car
1932 Ford De Luxe Coupe

P.s. There’s two clue 2’s :slight_smile:
Edit +1 for this idea on page 3:

#2: E61 M5? :smiley:

But E6x M5 is V10 petrol only lol.

sorry there are no M5s that take Diesel

a) It was a comically far fetch on purpose.

b) 535d and M5 still hold the same body number (E6x)

tough clues this month i hope a 32 ford coupe is one of the new cars…

#5 might be the Chiron.

1969 Chevrolet Impala?

Not sure here either.

Lincoln Continental.

Again, no idea right now.

Vector W8?

Bricklin SV-1?

I see a theme emerging here for now haha.

I would’ve said the Veyron, but that’s already in the game. I suspect it’s something older than that though, I’ll rack my brains and see if I can come up with something.

Didn’t Tucker lose money on every 48 they sold? That would be a nice car to see added.

I’ll add the Bricklin to this clue as well.

AMC Pacer! If this is the case, I suspect the barn find that comes in the Forzathon will be the Gremlin.

Another one that came to mind, was the car from the film Crank, a Buick Riviera.

Rest will follow soon after some thought.

For 5 I’m gonna guess the Terminator 2004 Mustang Cobra

#2 volvo 240?
