I suspect a new JDM update isn't very far off, brands like Nissan or Subaru have been given lots of attention, but Honda and Mitsubishi are lack lusting to say the least, not a single Carisma, Eclipse, FTO, Galant, GTO, Legnum, or Starion to be seen, quite strange really.

So according to Maserati itself, these were coded M138, but it seems the M128 was for US Spec models only, nothing really clear on those.

We don't need to follow 100% what is shown on our sister sites, since some vehicles only change the engine or in small aesthetic details. This one, for example, is just a limited edition with diamond weave carbon fiber finish


That's the trying part of it, many cars have very specific differences so it's all about finding out where to make the cut, in this case, it's quite clear for example.

What was the point of point of updating all this and the F-Type pages?


The point? Well, check the changes. I'm trying to standardize car naming across IGCD and IMCDB, we have a big problem with what's put under extra info and the main name, sometimes something is considered part of the main name for a car, and sometimes it's put under extra info as if was a simple trim level, so some steps should start to happen to make it clear.

With 235 cars, Ford has been finally added, being the maker with most cars on its roster (between Americans, Europeans, Aussies, Concepts, Racecars...it was to be expected) and also means that with 1433 current cars, Top Drives is now the #1 game with most cars at IGCD, which will only grow until the also current 3400 total car list is reached.

Another example of 'So close, yet so far' on having a Ferrari in the game for the time being..

But due to how the game has been growing, and how most (if not all) main competitors to Ferrari are already in-game (Porsche, Lamborghini, Pagani, Koenigsegg...) I wouldn't be surprised if it arrives sooner than later.

Ok, time to recap to avoid answering the same questions over and over.

1-This game will NOT be deleted in the foreseeable future unless any actual issues happen.
2-First thing to be done was a quick discuss among admins, and most at the very least didn't mind the game being re-listed, so again, unless there is a clear demand for the game to be taken down, it will stay.
3-The main reasons for a take down would be copyright issues, but for the 4th time, EVERY picture and EVERY car shown here is properly licensed, the car to the manufacturer and the picture to the right holder of EVO magazine, it wasn't one guy lurking around Google pics looking for the first pic available.
4-I wouldn't be wasting my time uploading 3400 pics if I knew it was going to be gone, again, I can't speak for other games in particular, but as for TD right now, it should be safe for the long run.
5-One of the biggest reasons to re-add the game, legal reasons and admin opinions put first aside, is again, the sheer number of licensed cars. Yes, they are represented by real life pictures, but as it was also said, some will never seen in a game again, and I think it's a shame not having a game like this listed on IGCD, it just makes sense.

Hey, if I recall correctly, there was a game called "Ondarun" or something like that, and in that game that was like a card game of some sorts, had a very similar car line up to ths game, and was never finished here in IGCD. Eventually the game vanished, and I have to ask, does that game that I just mentioned and this one was the same?


If I recall correctly, that was on the thin line way more than this.

First of all, it was a browser game, which is not a problem by itself, just a 'step' lower, so just based on that could be listed, but the big issue was licensing, I'm sure both the cars and the pics weren't actually properly licensed, so I don't think a return can be done unless proof of actual licensing for both things can be provided.

Hey J-2, since I'm kinda new to this site, just to make sure, if someone's already contributing for a game then no one else can right?


Sorry, I missed your previous comment, no problem in being new, normally it's the case yes, one person does a game, and in case help is needed, it's up to the contributor to ask.

In this case, even though is a giant game, I already have a method to go fast, but if at any point I need help to move on, I'll remember your offering, thank you.

Personally, I find it a bit boring that these are "just" real pictures, instead of actual 3D models or something made specifically for the game.

But I suppose there's nothing wrong with it, if these are "licensed" so to speak and not just taken off the net by some rando. And I'm not an admin or anything anyways. :p


I definitely agree on that, everything is quite balanced, the cons are definitely there, including your first point, they are adding more unique 3d models, but it will never be enough to differentiate every and each car.

As for the pros, as you also said, every car here is licensed so the real pic is a 'placeholder' in my mind, most cars seen here will never be featured again in any other game (at least in 3d form) so I guess it's worth it.

It was a bit of a mixed bag of many things, currently most admins have stated they don't mind the game being re-added for the time being, and the pictures are officially licensed to the game by Autovia Limited, who holds the trademark to EVO Magazine, so they are properly sourced.

And yet another name that sounds quite awfully in Spanish.

I'm sure it's named after a bull as always, but revuelto can be translated into feeling stomach churned or as scrambled eggs among other things.

(To be fair, Reventón was even worse, since it literally means blowout, something you don't want to associate with a supercar)

This is not a movie, so the setting doesn't matter as much as the developers want to.

It's 100% an Opel Corsa A, it's identical! The front clip is a bit altered, but the side flares are a perfect match, not to mention the handles, the lights, the windows...

At least is somewhat fitting for the setting, FH5 in terms of car localization is the biggest disappointment so far, at least since FH3, in which great car was taken in order to bring as much local car culture as possible.

And yes, of course is way easier to add aussie or british cars rather than mexican ones, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to add. A Nissan Tsuru or a late VW Vocho (not the recycled one from years ago) would have been quite a nice start...

To be honest, Toyota never had a good off-road lineup in Forza until recently, when the Artic Trucks and the FJ40 Land Cruiser appeared.

Plus, this is the perfect game for those, so as long they don't forget about the other cars, such as the examples you said, I welcome all these models for sure.

Exactly. It doesn't make sense keeping all the previous models, they get remastered overtime but it's not like it's a whole new car or something.

Having the old versions is definitely a big debate, but why in this case the car was reverted discarding the new pics as well? Anyway.
