Maybe fake, I don't know.

Microsoft offered good news for those who lost themselves to Forza 3. The publisher said that gift cars will be doled out based on player level and garaged cars in Forza 3, and players will also be able to import liveries from that game into Forza 4.

Wonder what they will say about an 80Mil bank balance and no game progress.

I don't care about the money or the cars, but I'm super stoked about importing liveries! So sad to leave them behind as I had to do for FM2!

Stoked to hear about the import liveries feature. I don't have to do them all again, What a relief

I don't think they'll be allowing anyone to transfer their swiss bank account Dazza.

But someone will probably find a glitch in the first 24hrs and make a million billion creds driving a yaris backward around the benchmark track or something.

I'm not sure about livery transfers. The announcement says import livery editor "layers", I wonder if it will actually allow transfer of full liveries?

I think there are lots of guys who would like build and tune settings to transfer as well. But I doubt that'll happen.
I'm expecting improved performance modelling and physics engine and that would probably result in data compatibility problems between FM3 and FM4.

The way that I see it - if they've fixed some of the glitches with layer placement on cars then they probably can't import full liveries.

But that's just a theory...

oh man mean az much!!!!!!!

couldnt u save each side of the car as a vynil group and then transfer it that way so its not actually a livery.. similar how people put multipule sponcers on one vynil group ??

thats what were hoping i think don!!!
gonna be good either way, new wheel, new start new lb's

would be good if they do.. fingers X 'st

SC400 = Toyota JZZ31 Soarer .......... Awesome!

I should clarify - I'm more interested in importing vinyls - not liveries.

Livery or vinyl, either way i'm happy . A great idea, looking forward to some more details during E3.

I just want BATHURST!!!!!

Please TURN 10!!!!!

Nah but as a side note; this is good news for everyone.

Is it just me or do all the Forza 4 cars look a little too shiny...
