Best GT Cars In Forza Horizon 5 – Game Rant

Grand Touring racing (from the Italian Gran Turismo), or simply GT Racing, is the most common form of sports car racing, often involving long-distance endurance motorsport events. Historically, Grand Touring cars had to be in series production, and Forza Horizon 5 features plenty of GT cars for players to get, upgrade, and take to the racing track. While not exactly racing-ready, many of the world’s best GT cars blend luxury, comfort, and performance, standing on the verge of the most exclusive supercars available.

In Forza Horizon 5, there are two separate categories for GT cars. The Super GT type, which lists the most exclusive, fastest, and most powerful GT cars, feels almost shackled alongside the traditional GT models. Below, we’ll highlight the best cars from both worlds, to provide the players with the ultimate selection of the must-have GT cars with the best stats in the game.

Forza Horizon 5: 10 Sports Cars That Are Easy To Unlock

These incredible sports cars in Forza Horizon 5 are pretty easy to add to your roster.

1

Aston Martin Vantage 2019

Car Type: GT Cars

• Default Rating: S1 801
• Price: 430,000 CR
• Top Speed: 192 mph

The Aston Martin Vantage is easily among the best GT cars in Forza Horizon 5. It’s available straight from the Autoshow, and boasts the best default stats that players can buy in the GT cars category. Built around the same aluminum architecture of the DB11, it is shorter and significantly lighter, resulting in better driving dynamics and acceleration.

With its impeccable performance, it should be noted that the Vantage isn’t the fastest of the GT class, if players are specifically looking for a top-speed contender. It’s also a bit pricey, especially when compared to the faster Bentley Continental Supersport, which is twice as cheap.

2

Ferrari F12TDF 2015

Car Type: Super GT

• Default Rating: S1 884
• Price: 500,000 CR
• Top Speed: 241 mph

The real superstar of the Super GT class in Forza Horizon 5, the Ferrari F12TDF is actually a blazing-fast high-performance variant of the standard F12 supercar, created to leave any competitor in the dust. The Ferrari F12TDF offers easily the best default stats among GT cars, standing at the top of the S1 performance class, with its top speed of over 240 mph outclassing any other Gran Turismo vehicle.

3

Bentley Continental Supersport 2017

Car Type: GT Cars

• Default Rating: A 769
• Price: 200,000 CR
• Top Speed: 210 mph

The respectable and luxurious Bentley Continental Supersport may not appear graceful enough, but don’t make this mistake. The fastest among the GT cars in Forza Horizon 5 (outside of Super GT), the Continental Supersport is one of the fastest and most powerful Bentley road cars ever made, powered by a roaring twin-turbocharged W12 engine.

The car’s relatively high weight of 2,280 kg, coupled with the AWD transmission, allows the Bentley Continental Supersport to always stay grounded on track, swiftly conquering sharp corners. And if that’s not enough, the car can quickly outrun other competitors in a straight line, and does it with style.

4

McLaren GT 2020

Car Type: Super GT

• Default Rating: S1 823
• Price: 210,000 CR
• Top Speed: 206 mph

The name says it all. McLaren GT stands right at the top of the Super GT class in Forza Horizon 5, purposely built as the company’s first grand tourer, with predictably astounding results. Lightweight, fast, and surprisingly affordable, the McLaren GT could serve as the amazing entry point into the GT category, consistently delivering top performance.

Jaguar F-Type R Coupé 2015

Car Type: GT Cars

• Default Rating: A 777
• Price: N/A
• Top Speed: 168 mph

The Jaguar F-Type R Coupé may not be the pinnacle among the GT class category in Forza Horizon 5, but it’s a real thing of beauty — almost like any other Jaguar supercar. With the car’s elegant, top-of-the-line sports coupé with an unmistakable allure, the F-Type R’s performance won’t disappoint either, packing the most powerful supercharged V8 engine that Jaguar has ever built.

Unlike other Forza Horizon 5 cars on the list, the Jaguar F-Type R Coupé has one notable caveat, as the car can not be bought directly from the Autoshow. Players may win the Jaguar F-Type R via the Wheelspin, or look for one in the Auction, as the car isn’t all that rare in the game.

6

Mercedes-AMG GT-R 2017

Car Type: Super GT

• Default Rating: S1 837
• Price: 295,000 CR
• Top Speed: 201 mph

From its wide body and distinctive aesthetics, right down to its upgraded twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Mercedes-AMG GT-R truly captivates. A high-performance variant of the Mercedes-AMG GT S fastback coupé (another great car), the GT-R’s active aerodynamics and lighter weight provide an exhilarating driving experience, wrapped in a striking package similar to that of the GT3 race car.

Based on the third-generation BMW 6 Series, this high-performance grand tourer is powered by a twin-turbo V8 engine that puts it in the upper spectrum of A class in most Forza games. But it’s not all about the performance, as, given its high weight, the M6 Coupé offers very accessible handling for most newcomers, rendering the car as a must-have pick.
