M4 in Forza 6

I'm a nerdy vide game guy with an M4. Just downloaded Forza 6 on Xbox one last night and the M4 is a car in the game. Looks inside and out is spot on. I through on a virtual JB4 and tinted windows and darkened rims and it looks like my car.

I've arrived! Lol

Forza is for kids. If you want a real SIM play Assetto-corsa

Curious, how do they have it equipped? Carbon fiber roof? 19 inch wheels? Black/silver? Same exterior paint colors?

It comes as AY with silver 19s and CF roof. But you can change the colors.
Could not get IND bits on or spoiler. But it's still cool.

It comes with the 19s and Carbon roof. However, with this game you can select any Manufacturer color for any car. Or make your own custom colors if you like.

LOL I am a big kid and love Forza. I have been reading about Assetto-Corsa and it looks amazing. I am going to wait for it to be available on a console though since I do not game on a PC. I am thinking about getting a wheel and some sort of seating rig for my Xbox1 to play Forza on. Just not sure if I can fit it in my theater room and not sit too close to the screen.....

^That's absolutely ridiculous

I built a Fire Orange M4 myself. The car is ridiculously good in the game. Here's a crap cellphone pic of it at Laguna Seca:

I'm a big kid also and I have forza on my xbox but Assetto corsa ruined it for me. It is just on another level. Racing games you have to play with a playseat en wheel imho.

I know I know, I do need a playseat. I just have to justify it somehow, make sure it fits and then also be able to take the verbal abuse from my girlfriend making fun of me hahaha

As an alternative to a playseat, check out the WheelStand Pro. It folds up fairly compactly so you can put it away out of sight. It's what I use and it annoys my wife much less than a playseat would.

It does sound quite bad and wrong, though, doesn't it? And they've become lazy with the customization since FM3 days. No new stuff.

Thanks for the link! That may be the ticket instead of having a huge stand/seat combo. I think I can make that work. Now I just need to find a wheel. I wish Fanatec made an XB1 wheel, I believe the TX is my only option at the moment.

Docter J is my name on Xbox live.

Fair warning I'm a terrible driver and will wreck into you out of lack of talent and not malice.

I'm really annoyed at the whole wheel situation with consoles right now. The lack of G27 support for the PS4 or XB1 is just infuriating. Every new generation they find a new way to force you to buy a new wheel. It's the biggest reason I've been sticking with PC racers recently.

Yea I was just doing some reading on wheels. After talking about it today I ordered the Thrustmaster TX458 wheel with the Stand in your link. Thanks for making me spend $$$ haha!

You do know that you can take a screenshot on the Xbone by double pushing the xbox icon on the controller?

Those of us that are playing bought the "Ultimate Version" for $100. Has a bunch of extra stuff and allowed early access to the game. People who preordered the other versions have to wait until Tues.

Hmmm..... you should have it available then. It automatically should have downloaded to your system. It would be there then on the available day for U.S. it was Thursday, you just select it and still play it.

Some people had issues accessing it because they did not update their Systems with the newest system update. If you delete and re-download the game you should have it as long as the release date is the same as we had.

I am not sure when the release date is for you guys. But it says it in the description what the early access day is.
