Mazda 3 / Axela 2004-2009

For me, I don’t think it looks retro…
Therefore, Retro cars are from 1980s-2002.
2003 onward are Modern.

2005 Mazda Axela Sport 23S

I always thought this was a fun car to drive too. It’s the normal, run-of-the-mill version of the Axela/3. Something you can see outside in traffic. Would be cool to add it back as a playable car, preferably together with the Mazdaspeed 3.

At least it better return to the new Forza MOTORSPORT coming soon!!! Some FM4 cars are reappearing there.

We already have this as a traffic model, it shouldn’t be that hard to get it as a drivable car

Look at what we got here, we will never get those OG daily JDM in FH5, but now we got TXR, only 30 bucks and this is the best racing game I ever play since 2024

When is this car coming back? It should be easy to do!

Both this and the 2010 version would be great to have back

I would like to see this car be added in horizon immediately when it comes out.

This would be a nice addition to Horizon. It would give a bit more variety to the Mazda’s in the game. Now we only have a bunch of Miata’s, RX-7’s and an RX-8. I know the facelift 3 MPS is coming but more Mazda’s is more than welcome!

It was available in FM4 along with another more normal Sport variant with 2.3 NA engine.

I am am extreme advocate for this car making a return.

I own one as a reason why. Love it so much.

One car that I didn’t see that I wish would make a return is the 1st generation Mazdaspeed3. I know that the 2nd generation Mazdaspeed3 is confirmed to be in FH6, but I want to be able to drive my real life car in Forza Horizon 6. I really hope that it gets added post-launch or something even before. I just wish for this 1 car by itself to make a return.

If the devs need the car to do some scanning or something to make it more accurate, send me a PM and we can go from there.

Peace

(I didn’t see the section that said so I chose the best option I could find, if misplaced, sorry for misplacing)
