Four more Forza 5 cars roll up - unbelievably shiny screenshots"Polishing". It's a dangerously ambiguous catch-all term for that point in game development when most of the actual content has been created, and all that's left to do is quash bugs and fiddle with the balancing (I say "all that's left to do" like any of this is easy - it isn't). In Forza 5's case, "polishing" is more appropriate than usual. With every week that passes Turn 10 reveals another set of offensively high-end cars, and those cars are getting shinier and shinier.I find I can't look at the latest specimens for longer than 10 seconds without wanting to throw up - they've been molded from the stuff of Colgate advertisements and sprayed with powdered silver, then parked under a billion exploding suns. Scroll down, if you can bear it, for new garage screenshots and marketing blurbs.
2012 Nissan GT-R Black EditionThis Japanese supercar delivers straight-line performance that can't be beat by cars five times its price. In cornering, traction from its high tech all-wheel drive system delivers astounding grip and predictability. The GT-R's looks make it a standout in any field and true import lovers will bow in its presence. There are only a handful of cars that will do anything but linger in the wake of its exhaust should they try to step to it on the track.
1967 Lamborghini Miura P400Without the Lamborghini Miura, the term supercar may never have come to be. In an age when the only race-derived designs came from Ferrari, the Miura showed a new direction. The Miura was conceived and designed three of Lamborghini's top engineers of the time. The result was a car whose form was revolutionary, and whose performance still thrills car lovers today. Forget the Sistine Chapel, this might be the highest form of Italian art.
2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black SeriesWhen the top-of-the-line Mercedes coupe is lacking performance, you get the AMG. If the AMG is not enough then you have the Black Series. All the AMG, plus the 6.2-liter V-8 with 510 horsepower motor from the SLS AMG supercar, as well as handling and aerodynamics to make it pliable. Providing outstanding stability for all that power is a wider track in both the front and rear. For Merc lovers, it simply does not get any better than this.
2007 Alfa Romeo 8C CompetizioneFrom every possible angle, the 8C Competizione is a steel-and-carbon-fiber supermodel of the highest order. You might be surprised that it wasn't designed by one of the famous Italian coachbuilders - it was designed in-house at Alfa Romeo's own design center. As with anything, pure looks alone only prevail in pictures and magazines, so the Competizione remains true to its heritage in performance as well. Under the shapely hood, you will find a 450 horsepower V8 designed in cooperation with Maserati. This supermodel is ready to run with the best of them.
