Drive Decades of Iconic Cars in Forza Horizon 6

It's time to rewind the clock and celebrate some of the most iconic cars of the years that have passed us. This is Horizon Decades, the second Festival Playlist series starting on Thursday, June 18 at 2:30PM UTC.

Over the next four weeks, you can look forward to experiencing 3 new-to-Horizon cars and a temporary Car Meet at the Hokubu Time Attack Circuit. There are also four new arrivals to the Car Pass garage, the return of The Trial on the Festival Playlist, and new Badges to unlock and show off on your profile.

Let's take a closer look at everything that Horizon Decades introduces as you continue to cruise and discover the world of Forza Horizon 6's Japan.

Evolving World Car Meet

Explore the new Car Meet at the Hokubu Time Attack Circuit! Take out your favorite cars and display them at Hokubu, complete with its own parking area and Horizon Decades Festival branding.

Remember, Car Meets are part of Forza Horizon 6's Shared World, which means that you can simply drive up to them and participate. In addition to showing the community your best customized cars and liveries, Car Meets are also a great way to meet new players and start a Convoy before heading out into the open world together.

Festival Playlist

Featuring 10 Series Reward cars to obtain and three Badges to add to your collection, the Festival Playlist has rewards for every driver at the Horizon Festival.

With Series 2, The Trial has returned to the Festival Playlist. You'll need to work closely with your teammates and drive steadfast to overtake a team of skilled opponents in this 6v6, best of three racing showdown. Access to The Trial is exclusive to Horizon Legends who have obtained their Gold Wristband.

Here's a look at the Badges you can obtain during the Horizon Decades series of the Festival Playlist:

• Festival Enjoyer: Complete each type of Festival Playlist Activity.
• Time Traveler: Play Forza Horizon 6 during the Horizon Decades series of the Festival Playlist.
• Egg-cellent!: Park at the Evolving World Car Meet in the 2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10.

Now, let's check out the Reward Cars that await your garage over the coming weeks!

1993 Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau

One of the most exclusive Porsches ever built was a performance-focused version of the 964, named the 1993 Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau. The core idea behind this car was to optimize weight to excel at the track. The Porsche Exclusive team took out every unnecessary luxury fitted in the regular 964 Turbo, and improved its tremendous 3.3-liter engine to increase its horsepower to 381 with 347 lb-ft of torque. Just 86 pieces of theLeichtbau were ever made, making it a prized possession on many collectors’ garages.

2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430

Earn 160 PTS during the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from June 18 – July 16.

The ultimate Lotus experience materializes in the 2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430. As extreme as they come, this Exige can produce 430 horsepower and 220 kg of downforce, all while weighing as little as 1,059 kgs. Thanks to that amazing power-to-weight ratio, this track toy has a 0-60 mph time of just above 3 seconds. Experience extreme grip and handling with the 2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430!

1989 Volkswagen Rallye Golf

Birthed for the sake of homologation, the 1989 Volkswagen Rallye Golf carried the legacy of the German hatchback and took it off-road. Take a look at this special car and you’ll find a new, wider body and rectangular headlights. The differences continue inside, where you’ll find VW’s Syncro AWD system, a 1.7-liter engine, and a G-lader supercharger. This is your chance to get a unique piece of VW history!

1988 Lamborghini Countach LP5000 QV

Earn 40 PTS during the Summer Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from June 18 – June 25.

Created by the same designer that brought the Miura and the Espada, the 1988 Lamborghini Countach LP5000 QV is one of the first cars to embody the “supercar” title to the fullest. The bold lines on the Countach’s body are recognizable by every car fan around the world, as is the sound of the iconic naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V12 engine found in the middle of its body. Take over Japan with the power and style of the Countach’s third-generation model!

1998 TVR Cerbera Speed 12

Earn 20 PTS during the Autumn Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from June 25 – July 2.

The impossible car that was too crazy to function, the 1998 TVR Cerbera Speed 12 arrives at Japan to accomplish everything it couldn’t in real life. The Cerbera started out as a project to create the most powerful road car ever. Two of TVR’s Speed Six inline-6 engines were fused in a V-shape to create the monstrous V12, 7.73-liter engine powering the Speed 12. The car’s body carries TVR’s racing legacy using the same chassis as some of its GT racers and the same Kevlar body from one of the Speed 12’s previous iterations. Are you ready to tame a car deemed too wild to be out on the roads?

1993 Schuppan 962CR

Earn 40 PTS during the Autumn Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from June 25 – July 2.

The 1993 Schuppan 962CR is the road-legal version of the 962 Porsche endurance racer. Made by former champion Vern Schuppan, the 962CR was built to pay tribute to the driver's win at the 1983 24 Hours of Le Mans. Featuring a twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter flat-six engine, the car can amass 600 bhp and reach a top speed of 230 mph. With an ultra-light all-carbon fiber body, this car can reach 0-60 mph in a mere 3.5 seconds. With only 4 units surviving today, this car is as rare as it is fast.

2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10

Drive a massive truck with the bite of a snake with the 2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10. Featuring the massive 8.3-liter V10 engine seen on the third generation of the Dodge Viper, the SRT-10 can produce 500 bhp and 525 lb-ft of torque: the power needed to tow and drive on rough surfaces. When you put your foot down, this performance truck does not disappoint, reaching 60 mph from a standstill in less than five seconds. On the front, you'll find a huge hood scoop, and a wing on the truck's bed. The interior of the car matches the exterior's vibe with racing-style seats and a Viper logo on the stick. Press the "Start" button on this truck to experience its venom firsthand!

2003 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning

Earn 40 PTS during the Winter Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from July 2 – July 9.

American car culture makes its way to Japan with the 2003 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning, a pickup you can see at a Drag Meet any day of the week. Fitted with a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine that puts out 380 bhp, this vehicle can flash from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds, making a very strong case for the Special Vehicle Team's ability to turn anything into a performance ride. The Lightning's performance package also includes Bilstein shocks, which help the car corner and make it a real threat at the track.

2017 Mercedes-AMG GT R

Earn 20 PTS during the Spring Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from July 9 – July 16.

When the 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT R was first built and tested, it became the fastest rear-wheel-drive, road-legal car to complete the Nürburgring Nordschleife, setting a lap time of just 7:10.92 thanks to several dramatic improvements over the regular AMG GT. To start, the handmade 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 produces 577 bhp and 516 lb-ft of torque. Along with more muscle, the AMG GT R has some of the best technology in its era, including AMG Ride Control suspension, a larger adjustable rear wing, rear-wheel steering, and other innovations. Driving this technological wonder will put a smile (as wide as its grille!) on your face.

2017 Saleen S7 LM

Earn 40 PTS during the Spring Season on the "Horizon Decades" Festival Playlist Series. Available from July 9 – July 16.

One of the most potent American supercars ever made, the 2017 Saleen S7 LM makes its way to Japan. With 1,300 bhp at your disposal, the S7 LM can reach 60 mph from a standstill in about two seconds. The LM resembles a race car even more than other versions of the S7, because it was built to commemorate the American brand’s triumphs in motorsport. Take the S7 LM beyond its limits in Forza Horizon 6.

Here are the cars you can look forward to driving in Horizon Japan over the next four weeks:

2023 Audi R8 Coupé V10 GT RWD

A more aggressive style, a powerful version of Audi’s V10 engine, and a new 7-speed gearbox make this special edition of the R8 a must-have experience. Only 333 units of the 2023 Audi R8 Coupé V10 GT RWD will be made, each equipped with a 5.2-liter V10 engine that can put out 611 bhp and 417 lb-ft of torque. As the name implies, all that power is delivered straight to the rear wheels so you can have the time of your life sliding a V10 through tight corners. The menacing front splitter, rear wing, scoops, and R8 GT badge are the perfect suit to wave hello to Audi’s amazing V10 engine.

1974 Mazda #123 Mad Mike 808 Wagon 'FURSTY'

A car built for family rides on Sundays met a mad genius looking for something new to turn sideways, and thus the 1974 Mazda #123 Mad Mike 808 Wagon 'FURSTY' was born, a wagon made to leave the smell of burnt rubber behind as it drifts. This build comes with a 26 B four-rotor engine and a Bulldog quick-change differential to give this machine power and precise control on the track. On the outside, a widebody kit gives the car a head-turning look that matches its personality and performance.

1998 Nissan Skyline GT-R 40th Anniversary

What better way to celebrate the legacy of one of Nissan’s biggest icons than with a limited-edition version of the Skyline? Only 416 units of the 1998 Nissan Skyline GT-R 40th Anniversary were ever made, making it an even more coveted model among collectors and car fans everywhere. Along with its trademark RB26DETT engine, this edition came with special details like bucket seats in the front and rear, a short front spoiler, and newly designed rear doors and fender.

2023 Toyota GR Corolla

Gazoo Racing does it again! The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla is the latest addition to Toyota’s performance line, and you are going to want to drive it. Fitted with the same 1.6-liter turbocharged engine found in the GR Yaris, the Corolla can produce a shocking 300 bhp. To help put that power down, Toyota equipped it with an all-wheel drive for quicker launches and added grip through the tight corners you’ll be tackling while drifting. The GR Corolla comes with a lot of raw power that opponents don’t want to mess with, and you do not want to miss!
