For those that know me well enough, I’m the racing guy around here. I’ve been patiently waiting for this game to come out since I started hearing details about it 2 years ago.

Microsoft has just released some more information on the game (Unfortunately this relates to the US but I’m hopefully the packages and release date will be similar).

Release Date: October 27

Collectors Edition is going to be exclusive to GameStop (obviously US) and contains the game, VIP status in the Forza community, a keychain, 2GB flash drive and ten exclusive cars!
Five of the cars are exclusive to VIP members, while the remaining five were “personally hand-picked, tuned and painted by the team at Turn 10.

The pre-order benefits will be a car designed by Justin Van Dusen II of Midland, Michigan. His Audi R8 V10 was the winning entry in the Forza community competition.

Full car list after the break.
