Forza Horizon 5 News

[p]An all-American battle is cooking at the Horizon Backstage this week! Vote for your favorite muscle car tag-team and unlock the winners at the Backstage next week. [/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Up first, a car that seemed impossible to make and that marked the end of the muscle car era, the 1973 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am SD-455. Joining the Trans Am this week is AMC’s take on a performance muscle car, the rare 1971 AMC Javelin AMX. [/p][p]  [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Their first opponent is as groovy as the decade it released, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge (and its iconic sticker). Teaming up with the Judge comes the car that would start a performance legacy, the 1970 Corvette ZR-1. [/p][p] [/p][p]Don’t forget to cast your vote before the season ends! [/p]

[p]Coming in as Cars & Coffee’s second Reward Car, the 1976 Volkswagen SP-2 comes into the Horizon Festival to shoot its shot to be named your garage’s prettiest car for 20 PTS until July 7.

This car was once called the most beautiful VW ever made, the signature front and sporty curves in the back make a fair case about it. [/p][p]
[/p][p]Made using the Brazilian VW Type 3 Variant’s chassis and adding a stylistic change in its body, yielded a unique car made to satisfy a country’s need for sports cars amid a time of heavy restrictions.
