Thanks!

I believe the Autovista features 26 cars to start and there will probably be more in future DLC. The Autovista is where Clarkson comments on the cars. I think but haven't been able to confirm that we will be able to inspect every car on our own. It really is a great feature especially with the step up in visual quality. It was one of the things missing from Forza 3. Here's an unofficial list of Autovista cars.

2010 Ferrari 458 Italia
2005 Ford Ford GT
2010 Lexus LF-A
2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
2010 Aston Martin One-77

1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa

I'm not sure what the material is called. Looks like highly compressed, fine sawdust if that makes sense. Easy to cut and sand. I made it out of one 3/4 " X 4' X 8 " sheet from Home depot for about $40. The black piece is normally used for finished shelving

Here's a few more pics of the build.




Easy wood to cut and sand so I took the time to bevel the edges.



Put together to see if it works and is in a comfortable position before finishing.



To keep the pedal base from sliding around I made this and even padded it.



I filled the seams in with wood putty and painted.



I got some carbon fiber looking contact paper and covered the sides and used some pin stipe tape to finish it off with
some color to go with the seat cover I bought for my leather recliner and keep with the Forza theme.



On the bottom I put those sliders you put on furniture legs so I could easily move it around on the carpet. I also bought a black, twin size fitted bed sheet which covers it perfectly. Just slide it over in the corner of the game room when its not being used
