The Autumn season of the Forza Horizon 6 Series 2 Playlist ("Horizon Decades") features two legends that highlight the absolute pinnacle of 1990s extreme engineering. The 1998 TVR Cerbera Speed 12 and the 1993 Schuppan 962CR offer two entirely different approaches to raw, unadulterated speed.

If you are looking to add these to your garage, the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 unlocks at 20 PTS, while the rarer Schuppan 962CR requires hitting 40 PTS on the weekly Festival Playlist.

1998 TVR Cerbera Speed 12: The Front-Engine Monster

Originally designed to dominate FIA GT1 racing and dethrone the almighty McLaren F1, the Speed 12 is a mythical, terrifying beast. Its colossal 7.7-liter V12 was created by essentially mating two inline-six engines together. The real-world car was famously deemed "too dangerous for the road" by TVR's own boss, Peter Wheeler, who canceled the entire production run after taking a prototype home for a single test drive.

In-Game Behavior

Expect a massive handful in standard rear-wheel-drive form. It is exceptionally fast in a straight line but lacks any semblance of modern driver aids. It excels as an S1 or S2-class speed machine once upgraded with wider rear tires, or when given an AWD swap to finally tame its relentless wheelspin.

1993 Schuppan 962CR: The Street-Legal Le Mans Racer

The brainchild of Australian Le Mans winner Vern Schuppan, the 962CR is a Group C Porsche 962 prototype chassis wrapped in a road-going carbon-fiber body. Only six examples were ever built. It utilizes a genuine race-bred IMSA GT twin-turbo flat-six engine and pairs it with a stark mid-engine profile built for high-downforce cornering.

In-Game Behavior

The Schuppan provides elite handling stability and massive downforce right out of the gate. While its stock 5-speed transmission has long gears that cause initial turbo lag, its lightweight chassis gives it incredible cornering potential on technical tracks. Interestingly, the Forza community has flagged the Schuppan 962CR as an insanely overpowered choice for Off-Road PR stunts when paired with rally tires and suspension, making it a surprisingly versatile weapon.

The Verdict: Which to Drive?

  • Go with the TVR Speed 12 if you want raw, unmatched straight-line speed, dramatic engine noise, and a high-risk, high-reward driving experience for highway pulls.

  • Go with the Schuppan 962CR if you prefer surgical track handling on twisty circuits, or if you want to build a bizarrely dominant dirt-jumping hybrid for open-world PR stunts.
