I need all returning cars to be put in the Autoshow. This is genuinely the only solution.

If I had to guess from their FH4 service schedule, were probably gonna have this event go on for maybe 9 months as the last community-support campaign, then FH5 is gonna be removed from stores at the end of 2025 and thats when they do the backstage thing.

But in the mean time, this is a small chance to make it not random/useless so I wanna try what we can

But the backstage passes are already in the game and we don’t know when the licenses run out so it’s not clear when FH5 gets removed from the store, but definitely not before FH6 releases and it’s not clear if that game comes out this year or 2026.

Idk if I really care enough to think about it that deeply, this is just to have some fun and get people involved. I’ll provide info in helpful formats if I can though

I think they will bring the game to Playstation during the summer and enable crossplay potentially as a hipe up for FH6.

They shall put all cars in the autoshow as far as I’m concerned the dripfeeding was horrendous throughout the games lifecycle with almost 0 exciting additions to gameplay not to mention the cheating situation on leaderboards etc…

7

hasn’t it been crossplay the whole time? or did that just mean Xbox and PC lol

yea, I think the top 3 Rivals time for the Goliath is still like 1 minute something :frowning:

Update Jan 30th: Looks like a good amount of folks in this poll and the one in FH5 Discussion are heavy missing the Italian Automotive cars, as of today.

So if you can spare it, please vote Italian Automotive for the Playlist return, for the greater good :slight_smile:

Car lists for March’s vote, to be the series for the month of April. Horizon Wilds vs. Horizon BMWs I mean Creatives

Cars are designated by way of obtaining them, so no marks means, besides finding it for auction in the Auction House, winning the Playlist reward during the week the Playlist is active is the ONLY way to obtain that car.

Naturally, that’s why it’s so difficult to find certain cars in the Auction House.

Car lists for April’s vote, to be the series for the month of May. Cinco de Ferrari vs. Upgrade Heroes

Cars are designated by way of obtaining them, so no marks means, besides finding it for auction in the Auction House, winning the Playlist reward during the week the Playlist is active is the ONLY way to obtain that car.

Naturally, that’s why it’s so difficult to find certain cars in the Auction House.

EDIT: Adding 3 indicators for new players/auction hunters-

  • “$” for hard to find cars worth 10-20 million;
  • “=” for extremely hard to find cars;
  • “%” for face-value^ cars;

^face-value meaning its max buyout price in AH is really low, 1-2 million at the most. So “%” means you just really like the car.
