June Meguiar's Pack: First Reaction

2011 Chevrolet #4 Corvette Racing ZR1 
Well this is a car I thought would be in the game October 13, 2011 rather than June 5, 2012. I mean it had only won the Petit Le Mans and that other race in France... what was it? Oh yeah. THE 24 HOURS OF LE MANS!

Along with the Subaru BRZ, ZL1 Camaro, and the Boss Mustang, this was probably one of the most requested cars for Forza DLC.

It is a fantastic addition and being a race car lover I can't wait to finally have a full GT2 grid of cars, even if it is a year late.

 1959 BMW 507
Here is some trivia for you. Elvis owned this car.

Honestly I didn't know or care that this car existed until yesterday but I am a sucker for early Euro roadsters and this should be a fun car to drive!

 1940 Ford De Luxe Coupe
So much win.

First of all this '40 Ford is the first pre-WWII car in Forza. That is awesome.

Secondly it looks fantastic!

Thirdly, and most importantly, with Turn 10's great history of bodykits and engine swaps I can't wait to hotrod this thing!

Certainly one of the highlights of the pack!

2011 Aston Martin Cygnet

Lolwut. This has 'free car' written all over it.

The only way this rebadged Toyota Iq will be cool is if you can swap in the V12 from the Lola.

 1958 MG MGA Twin-Cam
British sports car. New manufacturer.

This car is cool and looks like it will be a good rival for the Austin Healey.

Yes please.

 1997 Maserati Ghibli Cup
Not going to lie, this was another car I had never heard of until yesterday.

It looks like a 90's touring car though, and that is a good thing!


 2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series
A great brand new car!

The Black Series is a car designed to be a track day monster, so hopefully it will handle great.

With all the classics in the pack its good to see that there is still room for brand new cars in the car packs!

1987 RUF CTR Yellowbird
Finally! We get a classic RUF.

Not only a classic RUF, but we get the famous 'Yellow Bird'. This was another of the most asked for cars and I am so glad it is finally here.

Now I am off to the GTPlanet forums to troll that Forza not only has premium Porsches but also premium RUFs.

1992 Toyota Celica GT-Four RC ST185
Great looking car, great history, should be fun.

I love 1990's Toyotas, they had so much more flair and character than the eco boxes they produce now.

I am really hoping this car has the full WRC body kit, complete with rally lights, mudflaps, and an overhead storage container.

1963 Volkswagen Beetle
Yay! Herbie is in Forza!

But seriously this was another begged-for car and I am glad to see it. This one should be fun.

                                                                                                                                                                    

Overall the June Meguiar's Car Pack may be one of the best yet.

Remember, it will be available June 5th for 560 MS points.
