MY FH5 Log: Apex Legends

Motorsports hit Horizon with the Apex All-Stars update of Forza Horizon 5, where players are introduced to the greatest race cars ever assembled.

There are two groups of race cars assembled in the FH5 Apex All-Stars update. The first group is the paid DLC Car Pack called the Apex All-Stars Car Pack consisting of seven race cars. The second group is the prize cars scattered throughout the Apex All-Stars playlists. Let's begin with the paid DLC Car Pack.

The Apex All-Stars DLC Car Pack consists of seven of the world's greatest race cars assembled such as this:

1) 2018 BMW #1 BMW M Motorsport M8 GTE - It's a racing version of the revived 8-Series made to compete in the LMGTE class.

2) 2015 Cadillac #3 Cadillac Racing ATS-V.R - It's a race-prepped version of the ATS-V Coupe made to compete in the SCCA Pro Racing's GT Class. It reminded me of the one used in the Superrace Championship before it got replaced by the Toyota GR Supra-based Super 6000-class machine.

3) 2020 Chevrolet #3 Corvette Racing C8.R - Based on the C8 Corvette, it was coveted as the last LMGTE AM-class winner before the WEC transitioned to the GT3 class.

4) 2019 Ferrari #62 Risi Competizione 488 GTE - This 488-based race car from Risi Competizione made headlines when it won the GTE class at the 2019 Rolex 24 Hour of Daytona.

5) 2020 Lexus #14 Vasser Sullivan RC F GT3 - This Lexus RC F GT3 race car used by the Vasser Sullivan racing team emerged as the dominant force in the IMSA's GTD class.

6) 2018 Mercedes-AMG GT3 - A GT3-class car based on the Mercedes-AMG GT sports car improved to comply with 2018 GT3-class regulations. From DTM to Super GT, this is something.

7) 2018 Porsche 911 GT3 R - A 991.2-spec 911-based race car made to comply with GT3-class regulations.

Now that we got the pecking order with the Apex All-Stars Car Pack...

It's time to give this group a quick race across the circuit venues around Horizon Mexico, showing them what these Apex Legends are made of. Roll the tapes.

These Apex Legends proved their worth although the use of Horizon Mexico is somewhat out of context. Still, it's hard to decide which one in the Apex All-Stars Car Pack is the favorite.

Next time, let's drive the Apex All-Stars prize cars. Until then, enjoy your new rides!
