The "WE NEED MORE JDM LOVE" Thread

So, am I the only one that’s noticed that since Forza 2, we’ve seen a slowly but steadily decreasing amount of Japanese sports cars?
Of course not.
It seems as though Forza has become a little more centered around the latest supercar/hypercar, or whatever new ultimate road-going monster has been mumbled about as of late.
Which is fine. I like the roar of a V8 as much as the next guy, but…
I can’t help but feel some of my favorite vehicles from the franchise have been taken out.

-The RX-7 Spirit R.
-MINE’S BNR34.
-Top Secret S15.

  • RX-7 RE Amemiya (FD)
  • HKS CT230R.
    -NSX-R GT.
    -Mazda INGS RX-7.
    -Mine’s CP9A Lancer Evolution VI.
    -Tommy Kaira Skyline GT-R R34.
    etc, etc.
    You get the general idea.

Then there are some that were never even in the game, that I think should make an appearance:

  • RX-7 RE Amemiya (FC).
    -Inspira Jebat.
    -Mine’s Concept Scion FR-S GT.
    -Nissan R35 GT-R .
    -2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X HKS Concept Final.
    -2016 Acura NSX.
    -BRZ STi Concept.
    -Nismo 350Z S-tune.
    -Amuse Carbon R.
    -Amuse 350z Superleggera.

Fujimi Kaido was also taken out. I understand why it and many things weren’t in Forza Motorsport 5, but I’m sure we’d all love to see it make a return.
So much time in A/B class Time Attack/Track Days on that track…
It’d also be pretty awesome if the Tsukuba Circuit made a return, too. I’m certain it will, but I thought I’d give it a shout anyhow.
There’s also a few iconic tracks like the Aida Grand Prix Circuit that never got into a Forza game.

I’m not saying I don’t love the franchise or whatever Turn10 plans to do with the next installment, just thought it could use a few more vehicles to appeal to a demographic that is quite large these days.
What kind of stuff do you guys think is missing?
Most of this stuff was off the top of my head. Can you guys throw some input in, too?

I think JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) is well represented already. Many of the cars you list are only variants of cars already featured and most of the models are available outside of Japan. As for concepts I’d rather they didn’t appear in the game as they often either don’t make it into production or the final car is radically different. It’s always fun to be able to drive cars that are not available at home (wherever home is) but these days there aren’t too many Japanese cars that don’t get marketed elsewhere. It all depends on where you live. In the UK we get very few American cars due to them having the steering on the wrong side but we do get most of what Asia has to offer unless it’s a Nano car.
