Default C5Z video game model

Damn it!!! A few months back I sold my X Box 360 cause I wasn't playing it that much and there were not that many games for it that interested me. My friend was telling me that he purchased Forza motorsports 2 for the 360 and be bought my car, a C5 Electron blue Z06 After seeing the game and some screen shots of all the cars (especially the C5Z) they have in it I think this week I might be buying an X box again It's so fun and you can do engine mods to the cars like heads and cam or even put on a TT kit or superchargers on Check out this screenshot of the C5 and don't feel bad about the speed and acceleration numbers. Apparently only the very high modded cars like 1,000hp are high up there in numbers. Even the Porsche Carrera GT was like a 6.5 in acceleration



Here is the rest of the cars in the game if anyone is intersted.

Thanks I will. Can't you just mod the C5Z to be better than the C6 or the c5 does not have great mod capability in the game LOL Damn I'm turing this into a video game thread. Sorry mods

You can mod the **** out of almost anything in the game. I have my car (an EB C5Z) in the game with a C5R motor swap. I also have a C6Z with twin turbos and 987hp. It's an awesome game.

Fantastic simulator. Unfortunately Microsoft's steering wheels sucks. I much more prefer B class cars. Races are much better. Plus most of the guys racing that class are better sportsmen. Gamertag is Pawn5tar

I've never played Forza, but I'm 99.4% done with GT4. (that's a lot of driving) The graphics are much better on Forza, but is the gameplay as good as GT4? I mean the realism of the driving dynamics. I find GT4 to be much better than any other driving sim I have played. When GT5 comes out, I will be forced to shell out the big $$$ for a PS3.

GT4 was a great sim/game. Forza is far better in every way. I still like my old sims but have not touched them since Forza. Also, the tuning is far more involved.

I love this game - I bought the 360 pretty much just for this game... hehe

I like trying my hand at tracks with stock cars and comparing them to real life times.

With a BONE STOCK C5 Z06 I put a 2:15.421 around the Suzuka Circuit.

Anyone else beat that time.

The Physics and Telemetry in Forza 2 is leagues beyond any current Simulation game on the market. If you do a little reading about it, you'll find they use NASA caliber telemetry for this game.... GM is even using Forza 2's Telemetry on tire wear for the C6R Le Mans team!!

Who owns the rights to GT? Is is a Sony company?

Most other gaming companies are selling their rights to MS.
