Turn 10 is upping Forza Motorsport 4's car count with a ton of new rides designed to excite gearheads of all generations. Entitled the Top Gear Car Pack, the DLC will pull up for download on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace this May, and include 10 need vehicles for the Xbox 360 racer.
Highlights of the vehicle DLC include the 1977 AMC Pacer X, as featured in Wayne's World's classic “Bohemian Rhapsody” scene; the super-powered 1992 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4; a 2012 Hennessey Venom GT, capable of going 0-200 mph in the blink of an eye (well, a few blinks); and the 2012 SmartForTwo, the first micro car to be introduced in the US.
Other wheels in the Top Gear Car Pack include the 2011 Ford Transite SuperSportVan, 2012 Jeep Wrangle Rubicon, 1966 Lotus Cortina, 1990 Subaru Legacy RS, 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8, and the 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 MkIII.
