Unfortunately it's a big fail on the body mods. The only wing available is that generic erector set wing they have for all the cars. I didn't look at the air dam/side skirts yet but I assume its the same there.
You can put the REW in there as well as the 3 rotor from the Furai. It had the option to add force induction although I didn't look to see if it was a turbo or S/C, I'd assume turbo.

I literally played for 2 minutes before I had to leave for work lol. Can't wait to mess around with it more tonight.

Well at least we got some decent engine swaps! I was afraid they would leave out the 3 rotor. I'll probably buy 10-12 of them and try different setups. I have still been playing with the 787B like crazy. I am addicted to the sound. It grips like crazy too. You hardly ever have to let off the throttle going into to a long straightaway. It's like the thing is on rails.

I am having a hard time finding a wheel that I like on the car. Also, you should try the car out in A class. Very competitive in that class, the Ferrari's do not stand a chance

I'll try to post some videos up later.

The Spirit R is one of their "Unicorn" cars meaning you can only get it through a few pre order specials (which I didn't know about at the time, FML) or through the online auction house when Turn 10 decides to put a few up there. They usually go for millions of credits and they only post them every so often... In other words, you probably won't get one (and neither will I unfortunately) Honestly now that the FB made it into the game, I really don't care about the other stuff lol

Got my FB in Forza now, have to say, I am quite unimpressed with the exhaust sound. Its definitely not nearly as "strong" as it should be IMO, and I play on a full 5.1 surround sound with real speakers (not the cheap crap you buy at walmart lol). Also, the body mods are seriously lacking, as has been mentioned. But the car is fun to drive, thats for sure. I have bought 2 so far, one done up like my old 82 was, similar estimated power, tires, wheels, suspension mods and everything. If Forza is any good with the physics engine, which I think its fairly decent, my 82 would have been a great handling car lol.

The other one I got is remaining completely stock. I plan to buy 1 or 2 more yet, one for a full out 20b beast, and another to fit into the A class cars. I may do one more on top of that to do up a drag racer, as I do like to drag race in the game a bit.

For the record, the car is in the D class as stock, with 201 points I think. My "82 lookalike" is in the C class at 320 points and is very competitive with any car in that class. I can see this thing raping anything in the A class likely, handling is so predictable, I love it.

Yes I am. If you search at Youtube for Forza, the same photographer from Seattle came down to take pix of two RX-3s. He took close to 1,000 pix.

I had to take the autometer monster tach out for him to a video from start up to redline (at standing still). I asked him if you wants to video of revng up to 10K using the autometer but he said no need since there was no hesitation hitting redline

Although I have no time to play any video games, he gave me a new game and should get a free game also when the new forza come out.
