Summary
As one of the biggest racing games in the world, theForza Horizonseries has always featured a vast number of cars with impressive detail placed upon them. Ranging from more normal, everyday cars to extremely fast supercars and powerful off-roaders,Forza Horizonhas a car for everyone.
However, not every car is as easy to unlock as others. Some cars can require intense grinding or supernatural levels of luck in order to obtain, andForza Horizon 4’s cars are no different. Thehardest to obtain cars inForza Horizon 4aren’t always the best, but unlocking them will at least grant players the right to brag about their achievements.

The normal way to acquire cars inForza Horizon 4is by buying them directly from the Autoshow. Most cars aren’t ridiculously expensive, with the higher echelon of supercars having their price range set from around the 1,000,000 to 3,000,000 credit bracket. There are even some very well-performing cars available for under a million.
However,the highest priced carsavailable on the Autoshow can be bought for10,000,000 credits. Of these, theJaguar D-Typeand theMaserati 8CTFare the rarest by virtue of only being available one other time outside of the Autoshow. The D-Type was available in the spring of Series 27 via the Flying Fifties championship, while the 8CTF was also available in the spring of Series 27 after completion of 80% of the season. The other cars priced at 10,000,000 credits have been obtainable more times than these two cars, making them not only difficult to get due to their price, but also because of their limited availability via other acquisition means. At the same time, driving a D-Type arounda British open-world gamecan add to the thematic experience.

Some cars inForza Horizon 4have special unlock requirements, and theAlfa Romeo P3is one such car. To acquire it,players must purchase Edinburgh Castle, one of the available homes.
However, purchasing Edinburgh Castle requires15,000,000 credits, making it one of the most expensive things to buy in the game. Despite this, if players are willing to grind for a bit, there are some custom races that offer more credits than what players would receive by organically playing the game,making the expense a little easier.

Every Backstage car technically has the same acquisition difficulty, only requiring a Backstage Pass to achieve them. These cars can still be hard to obtain given the limited amount of Backstage Pass players can earn, especially compared to credits.
However, theHSV GTSwould technically be the rarest of the bunch, since it has only been available twice outside the Backstage, being obtainable inSeries 25as part of the Down Under championship during summer andSeries 29with 80% completion during autumn.
4Various Horizon Life Cars
Cars That Require Grinding To Achieve
Some of themore difficult cars to obtain inForza Horizon 4are unlocked after achieving certain milestones via simply playing the game. Like other cars, they can bebought from the Auction House, but it is not the standard way of attaining such cars.
Some of the Horizon Life cars can be acquired after achieving allstars in a Horizon Story, which could take a while depending on how difficult the story is. Some can be obtained via photography of a number of cars, and others can be attained after reaching specific tiers in various Horizon Life challenges, such asStunt Jumps,Horizon Super7, orThe Eliminator. These aren’t necessarily the rarest cars, but getting them can be difficult, especially when trying to obtain all of them.

Not every car inForza Horizon 4is obtainable through grinding. Some cars are acquired based on pure luck via a wheelspin. TheAston Martin Vulcan Forza Editionis one such car that can be achieved from awheelspin, and it gives bonuses to Clean Skills.
These wheelspin cars can get featured occasionally in a series for players to acquire, with the Vulcan only appearing in Series 5, 9, and 23. However, this car can actually be quite good for races and will serve players well if they obtain it,especially when doing jumps.

Wheelspinsare a pretty big part ofForza Horizon 4, granting cars, money, and other extra items, simply by playing the game. Some special cars can be obtained via the system, and theVolkswagen Type 2 De Luxe Forza Editionis one such vehicle, offering a bonus to Speed Skills when being driven.
However,its acquisition is mainly luck-based, with players requiring good fortune for the wheelspin to land on the car to unlock it. It has been available rarely in different series, such as in the autumn forSeries 6for purchase from the Forzathon Shop and in the Festival Playlist during the summer ofSeries 9via the completion of 80% of the season. Some other cars unique to wheelspin have been featured more times as an acquisition in different series than the Type 2 De Luxe, making it hard to obtain due to its main acquisition method of getting lucky in the wheelspin.

TheFord Capri Forza Editionhas a reputation for being a difficult car to obtain inForza Horizon 4. Its acquisition method has been changed during the game’s lifespan, but is still tricky to achieve.
To obtain the Ford Capri Forza Edition,players essentially have to 100% the game. The car is part of theSuperstar Star Card, requiring full completion of many of the game’s challenges, such as completing races, doing PR stunts, and exploring the world. It might not be the best car in the game, but players will definitely take notice of it.
