Are you a dedicated car collector in Forza Horizon 5 trying to complete your garage? You might be wondering which cars are no longer obtainable through regular gameplay in 2024. It’s a common question among players, especially those who started playing later. While Forza Horizon 5 keeps the vast majority of its cars accessible, a select few have become elusive. This guide clarifies which cars you might be missing and why they’re so hard to find in 2024.
For players who began their Forza Horizon 5 journey around or after December 15th, 2022, some cars have already become unavailable through standard methods. These methods include autoshow purchases, Backstage Passes, in-game progression like stories or Star Cards, Wheelspins, Skill Trees, Forzathon Shop appearances, or Playlist rewards within the regular series cycles.
Research indicates that a small number of cars are indeed no longer directly obtainable. While most cars in Forza Horizon 5 remain accessible, this list highlights the exceptions, saving you time from fruitless searches in the Auction House for these specific models.
Here are the cars considered unobtainable through normal gameplay for players starting around December 2022 or later:
- Aston Martin DB11 Preorder
- ATS GT
- Cadillac Escalade ESV
- Chevy Camaro ZL1 Preorder
- FIAT Dino 2.4 Coupe
- Ford Focus RS Preorder
- Formula Drift #777 Chevrolet Corvette
- HSV GTSR
- Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE (’85)
- McLaren 720S Coupe Preorder
- Napier-Railton
- Porsche 356 RSR from Emory Motorsport
- Quartz Regalia
- Quartz Regalia Type-D
- Renault Clio RS 197
- Renault Sport Clio V6 (’03)
- Rossion Q1
- Toyota Corolla SR5
It’s important to note that the four preorder cars (Aston Martin DB11, Chevy Camaro ZL1, Ford Focus RS, McLaren 720S Coupe) are particularly difficult to acquire. After Series 20, they were blacklisted from the Auction House, making them completely unobtainable through that route. The remaining cars on the list might still appear in the Auction House, depending on player availability and generosity, but their scarcity is significantly higher.
Keep in mind that the landscape of car availability in Forza Horizon 5 can change. Announcements regarding car delistings or re-introductions can impact this list. However, as of 2024, these are the cars that stand out as exceptionally challenging to add to your collection through typical gameplay methods. For collectors aiming for a complete garage, focusing on acquiring these cars through the Auction House, while understanding their rarity, is the current approach.
