You don’t need to be a mad scientist, a leading paleontologist or even David Hasselhoff to drive some of the most iconic movie cars from the ‘80s and ‘90s–virtually, of course.

Forza Horizon 5 players now have the opportunity to drive K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider, a &rsq…

So which version of the DeLorean time machine is your favorite?

I'm having a hard time choosing myself.

it'd be funny if the Part II time machine was in hover mode and the driving physics was changed to that of an air hockey puck.

Hmm ... I've been looking at old Firebirds late last night. This might scratch that itch.

How about BJ and the Bear's semi?  Bonus points for Audrey and Judy Landers sitting in the cab.

Warner bros, not universal- sadly. 

 

That being said, I am one of the dummies that bought this pack. It was $9 for 5 cars, 3 of which are skin swapped deloreans that already exist in game. HOWEVER when you get to 88 mph, you see some serious E36 M3. 

 

KITT has a battle mode bodykit that has active DRS, too. No missiles though. The big option for the JP jeep was top, or no top. 

 

As for best bttf delorean? My favorite movie is the second one, because I loved the future. 2015 was wild. The best delorean will always be the original plutonium unit though. Stupid libyans.

For all the fails and flops from Forza in the last bunch of years this game has been great. Tons of unique cars like early Forza Motorsport, just wish it had actual race tracks. Forza Motorsport should have been left a stillborn, it's worse than FM5 and that one atleast had the excuse of being a launch for a new system.

I gotta be honest, I disagree. It's been OK at best. HUGE problems with cheaters that they still refuse to resolve- the leaderboards are pointless. Recycled content and heavily leaning into user generated tracks that they're not doing a very good job vetting before they put them out for the public to play- there was one event in particular a few weeks back that was nearly impossible. Mexico, while physically the largest map they've ever had, is mostly empty. Recycling Hot wheels from FH3 was a joke, it wasn't good then and it's not good now. The selection of cars is FINALLY getting good (I'm a particular fan of the pro-mod camaro) but it's nearly three years on at this point. I've been dealing with the same group of mostly the same cars with the same models since FH3. For a supposedly ground up design, they sure phoned a lot in. Between this game, and the downright BAD FM (XSX generation) I'm about done with Forza. I won't be buying the next one at all. The nesquik donk will have to live on via gamepass.

I think Oscar Meyer had some thing that would be iconic and fun 😂😂

I'm impressed they got the seats right for the Jurassic Park Jeep.  The ones used in the movie had the Sahara trim, and had unique seats.
