Forza Horizon 6 Forza Edition Cars: Full List and Unlock Methods

Forza Edition cars in Forza Horizon 6 are rebuilt versions of stock vehicles, each carrying a passive multiplier that speeds up progression. They can transform a road car into a dirt rally machine, push a hatchback into a higher class, or hand you a permanent Credits or XP bonus during events. There are 18 FE cars in the launch roster, and none of them sit in the Autoshow.

Quick answer: FE cars unlock through four channels — Aftermarket spawns at fixed locations, Journal rewards at Tier 5 of specific campaign paths, VIP Membership or the Time Attack Car Pack, and Wheelspin/Auction House drops.

What a Forza Edition car actually does

Every FE car comes with a built-in skill multiplier that applies while you drive it. The bonus category determines where the car earns its keep, whether that's farming Credits, banking event XP, or chaining drift points on a mountain pass. The mechanical builds also differ from the base vehicle — the Subaru BRZ FE, for example, is converted into a dirt-spec rally car rather than the road-tuned coupe it starts as.

The seven bonus types you'll see across the 18 cars:

Full list of all 18 Forza Edition cars

Aftermarket spawns: three FE cars on the map

The Aftermarket system replaces the old "buy from a menu" path for a handful of cars. Green CR icons appear at fixed locations on the Japan map, and three of the spawn slots host Forza Edition variants. You still pay credits to take them home — the spawn just makes them available to purchase.

Higher Horizon player levels increase the chance these FE variants appear at their slots, so the cars become easier to lock in once you've put hours into the festival.

The BRZ FE is the most dramatic build of the three — it ships as a dirt-spec rally car rather than the street coupe the base model represents.

Journal rewards: four guaranteed FE cars from campaign tiers

Journal rewards are tied to Tier 5 of specific campaign paths.

Four FE cars are guaranteed unlocks through the Racing Journal. Each one is tied to reaching Tier 5 on a specific campaign path, so progress is deterministic — no luck involved.

The car drops directly into your garage when the tier completes — no purchase required.

VIP and Time Attack DLC: three premium FE cars

Three FE cars sit behind paid content. They come bundled with VIP Membership (included in the Premium Edition and the Premium Upgrade) or through the Time Attack Car Pack Store. Driving the Japan map looking for the Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro FE is a dead end — it never spawns in the world.

Edition contents and add-on bundles are documented on the official Forza Horizon 6 editions page.

Wheelspin and Auction House drops: eight RNG-based FE cars

Eight FE cars are gated behind Wheelspin RNG or Auction House listings.

The remaining eight FE cars are pure drop-rate territory. They can roll out of standard Wheelspins or Super Wheelspins, and once a player owns one, it can be listed on the Auction House. Super Wheelspins are rarer in FH6 than in past entries but carry better odds, so banking them for targeted spending is the most efficient route.

The Nissan GT-R Black Edition (R35) FE is the headline target in this group — it's built as a 2,700+ hp drag monster with wheelie bars and a parachute, capable of pushing past 300 mph once fully tuned.

Picking the right FE car for what you're farming

The Lexus LFA FE pairs an Event XP Boost with the touge route soundtrack.

FE cars are tools, not trophies. Match the bonus to the activity:

• Credits farming: Nissan S-Cargo FE, Wuling Sunshine S FE, or Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro FE. Use these on any high-payout event you'd normally grind for cash.
• XP and tier leveling: Lexus LFA FE and Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex FE. Both stack the Event XP Boost onto whatever races you're running.
• Drift skill chains: Ford Mustang GT 2+2 Fastback FE and Lotus Evija FE for the boost, or the Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex for the touge-friendly handling.
• Off-road and destruction grinding: Subaru BRZ FE for its dirt-spec build, or the Ford Super Duty F-450 DRW Platinum FE for sheer mass.
• Drag and speed events: Nissan GT-R Black Edition (R35) FE for straight-line work, Porsche #3 917 LH FE for circuit pulls.

The Lotus Evija FE is a Drift Skills-tuned EV available through VIP or the Time Attack Car Pack.

📝

Note: FE cars cannot be purchased from the Autoshow at any point. If a car's row says Aftermarket, Journal, VIP/DLC, or Wheelspins, that's the only way in.

The fastest practical route to a complete FE collection is to clear the four Journal tiers first (guaranteed), stop at every Aftermarket spawn during normal exploration, decide whether the VIP/Time Attack bundle is worth the three cars it grants, and stockpile Super Wheelspins for the eight RNG cars. Auction House sniping is a backup for the rarest rolls once other players start listing them.
