In no particular order, and I’m sure to be missing some…

Nice List!! I do want to point out though that we do have the Dodge Coronet Super Bee in Forza Horizon 5. That being said it was only introduced once and is a hard to find car.

think they are quite often in the auction house, they don’t seem to get too much love.

Nice list! And most of those vehicles and especially the Fords are already designed in previous MotorSport and Horizon games, so it shouldn’t take much to retouch them for current games!

All of these images are from Forza, so yes every car here has been in a previous version.

You know what else I’m pouring one for?
- The beautiful Mercedes luxury barge, the 2012 S 65 AMG.
- The cool-looking 2012 MINI John Cooper Works Coupe, which was only in FH1 and worse, it was a UNICORN car!
- The 2012 Jeep GC SRT8 (not to be confused with the 2014 SRT)
- '73 Ford Pinto from FM4 DLC
- Spyker C8 Alieron
- 2013 Audi S4 (Man, I really miss this beauty)
- 2014 Land-Rover Range Rover Supercharged (L405)
- 2017 Volvo XC90 R-Design
- 1968 Holden Monaro GTS 327 (HK)
- Citroen DS4
- 2011 MINI Cooper S
- 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser
- 1957 Ford Thunderbird (though it’s in the FH5 files)
- All Teslas that were in Forza
- Nissan Safari '85
Any one of these ring a bell?
Oh yes, I’ve been playing FM4 and FH1 as of late. I have seen pretty much every one of those cars. Though some of them I do not miss so much (Spyker or the Teslas). Was never a fan of Spyker, and with Tesla…meh more EVs…

Doubt we’ll see them again, as Spyker isn’t around much, and Tesla… let’s just say the CEO is a joke. No licensing division pretty much hurt it. I’m not exactly a fan of the Teslas apart from the Model 3.
Regarding Gumpert: The brand is pretty much dissolved, much like Joss. Though there is an Apollo N (spiritual successor of the Gumpert Apollo).
The rest, I suppose they could be brought back, but how they plan to return is sort of dictated by licensing. And it’s either fickle, or the owners simply have zero interest. The Pontiac Fiero is also an addition I want back too.
Did you know there were vehicles that were meant for FM4, like a Skoda Fabia vRS and the Fisker Karma? I poked around some forums and they mention this.
There was a ton of random stuff for FM4. I’m playing on an emulator (pulled the games off of disks I had purchased). I was surprised how easy it was to peel the game files apart and force the game to list the unicorn cars. Many were 3rd party modified cars (Mine’s GTRs, Top Secret Silvia and Supra). Out of all of the cars to never return, personally I feel that the '69 Z/28 and the two Shelbys hurt the most. Forza never got the Trans Am series cars in 1 game, ever. FM4 had the Z/28, but was missing the Boss 302 (the 429 was in it’s place). Now that we have the Boss 302, the Z is no where to be found (The SS isn’t close enough, way too nose heavy with the 396). As for the Shelby Mustangs, we haven’t seen them since FM4, since they never showed up in any FH.
Edit: Almost forgot, even the Subaru S204 is a rehash from FM4.
Cupra 280 - in 2014 the only Hot Hatch quicker than that was the Golf R, yet we still got the lesser Ford Sti and others. The old Cupra was in earlier games ( can’t recall which as I haven’t rebooted them for a while ) so why not bring them back along with the updated models.
I was with you mostly till I read that. That is one licensing problem I hope never gets resolved.
