This season will then end on Thursday 10 August 3:30pm BST / 10:30am ET. That gives you seven days to complete the playlist challenges and collect as many Forza Points as you can.

These points can be used to unlock the Series Progress rewards, which are the Ford Mustang DD (80 points) and Dodge Super Bee (160 points).

Six new cars make their Forza debut in the Summer Party season. These are the 2022 Toyota GR86, 2018 DeBerti Ford Mustang GT, 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT, 1970 Hot Wheels Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Custom, and 1973 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am SD-455.

You can also win the extreme 2019 Hennessey Camaro Exorcist by completing the new Icons of Speed Horizon Story.
