    Wondered why the Viper DLC was so big? There's a Forza Horizon promo car hidden in there! It's a 2012 Challenger 392 with a special unique livery. I don't know if it's planned as a preorder bonus or what, but it isn't unlocked by any existing DLC license.

    (I don't normally post here, and especially not videos, but I thought this was worth showing! Sorry if I've ruined a surprise.)

    Though I don't really care for the car since it's so similar to the Challenger we already have, do you think it will only be unlocked if we have FH on our HD or will it be free? (I know BADNED's list had the latter)

    Nice find.

    I have no idea how it'll be unlocked, all I know is that it's not part of the Season Pass and not unlocked by owning any other DLC. I would assume that it will be unlocked before Horizon comes out, and I can't see Turn10 charging for basically a rolling advertisement.

    I have a question for you, the way to unlock it was like unlocking Unicorns or they way you would unlock a pre-order car with a DLC key?

    I'd have to say it'd be a pre-order bonus unicorn.

    Well before you guys speculate more, I will clear it up. I thought T10 would make announcement in this weeks WIR so I waited.

    Anyway the Forza Horizon PreOrder Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 will be available for free in FM4 to those who preordered Forza Horizon. Since the action is planned to start sometime in July the announcement will be made soon including all the info you need to know on how to qualify for one. Stay tuned!

    Spoilers! Jeesh, now why even bother to see the movie!

    Oh wait, it's just a car in a videogame. Ok, carry on.

    In all seriousnessly, that's a pretty cool bonus tie-in. I know a lot of people on this board will pre-order FH anyway, but what a cool little incentive. I like the crazy livery, I was wondering if FH sponsored cars would make an appearance in 4 sometime.

    If they are giving cars for pre-orders, I'd like to know what versions of the game will be available as well as what additional pre-order bonus incentives are for each retailer.

    However, if they have decided to only have one version of the game and no pre-order incentives, that will be a welcome relief from all the Forza 4 pre-order nonsense.

    I imagine the fans who got stiffed by Best Buy will be particularly relieved.

    Oh yeah, I completely forgot about all the pre-order nonsense from fm4. I was one of those that ordered from Best Buy (Gots to get that BMW), and I think I still paid for some of the other pre-order cars with extra points.

    I really hope there's only one or two versions of FH, a regular and the crazy one with the lunch bag or whatever it was. I hate this "every shop has different cars as bonuses" crap.
    Great for retailers, horrible for gamers since people (suckers like me) will shell out more money for some of the other exclusives.

    And how are cars supposed to turn into game lovers if gamers offer different lovers?


    edit- faultier, it sure does.

    It's not a unicorn. I'm not going to say any more on unlocking it though since BADNED has confirmed it will be able to be legitimately unlocked.

    I got 3 of the 5 pre-order cars when I ordered from a Swedish retailer. The CR-Z, BMW 1M and Mini Clubman. Traded the CR-Z for an Impreza and the Clubman turned into an Alfa. So in the end I got what I wanted without having to pay anything extra. It was weird, but I was into it.

    well and I got the Honda from my dealer and paid about 5 EUR for each other car by getting codes over Ebay. Its crazy but hey its my hobby and I don´t regret anything :)

    But for Horizon I hope they:

    - don´t put as much unicorns in it as Fm4 had
    - don´t have such a strange pre-order philosophy

    In germany most shops got nothing of these cars and some gamestops even gave all 5 to their customers. :confused:

    I must say, if we're going to get the 392, I'm glad it's a bonus like that, and not as paid DLC.
