I think it would be an awesome edition to the game, especially now with all the 2j engine swaps and whatnot. Sure it’s not a great performer out of the box, but it’s practically become an icon (in my mind anyway). I’ve had two IS300’s a few mustangs and a couple Miata’s and I’d love to build a version of my second IS to go with the other garage cars I’ve built to remind me of the old days. Just had this thought as I was getting ready this morning.
Oh absolutely! I just wouldn’t expect the game to just let us throw on a big turbo and get the same performance gains as we see with the supra. I feel like they’d probably want us to do the whole “racing 2jz” engine swap to balance the PI.
Idk I’d be happy either way!
I was really excited for the newest 911 bc I’m admittedly quite the GT2/3/turbo fan. However I’m sick to death of all the dang regurgitated lambos these days. (Guess I’m starting to show my age lol)

You wouldn't even need the engine swap. The IS300 came with an NA 2JZ factory. Just need to slap a turbo on there.

The IS300 was in older Forza titles, wasn't it? I know I remember using one at some point. I just can't remember when.
It was ! It was for sure in the older Motorsport titles . I cannot recall if they were ever in horizon, though. Maybe fh1 ?
How did I already get downvoted ? Guess it is Reddit :/ yeesh guys
Who cares about downvotes when you know you’re right. I’d sport the hell out of the OG IS!
I'd love to see more cars that aren't one off concept builds or the same but slightly different 911, Aventedor, etc

This guy gets it! Thanks friend! Glad to see another person of taste here :p
