Forza 3 Update 23rd September #8

Forza 3′s First DLC Announced & The Ferrari Italia 458

When I say not a lot for you today, I don’t mean that in a negative way, but more in the size of the update.

As many of you have become accustomed, OXCGN’s Forza 3 Updates have become a large affair over the last month or so, with more regular updates happening almost daily.

This update is the last of the Ferrari Madness Updates for September. Soon Turn 10 will start on one of the one main stables of cars in the game, my money is on either Porsche or BMW, as both of those have extensive liveries and models to include in this iteration of Forza 3.

• Ferrari’s Italia 458

Something to note though is that the Ferrari Stable, the full stable, will be available for download via DLC Pack come this holiday season, basically December 09. As the game is released in October 23rd (PAL territories 27th in NTSC Territories).

WHat we have for you today though is Ferraris 2010 Italia 458 which has just been released and willno doubt become a popular model for Ferrai world wide. To give you an idea of what to expect, check out the video of the Ferrari Italia 458 that will appear in Forza 3, remembering this is taken from a composite of actual gameplay, not cgi created video.

The New Ferrari 458 Italia available for download holiday 2009.

“With much fanfare from the mainstream media Ferrari’s 458 Italia was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show and as the flashbulbs lit up Ferrari’s latest and greatest automotive journalists started reaching for adjectives.

Stunning, awesome, a truly hardcore Italian Stallion and the most technically advanced non-racing Ferrari yet, were some of the headliners. Maranello has really struck a chord with the 458 Italia.

Its all-new aluminum chassis structure has been draped with a sleek, sultry and highly functional body. The 458 Italia is a combination of banned F1 active-aero technology and the voluptuous vision of the Pininfarina design house.

The Ferrari features ‘aerolastic’ spoilers in front that shape shift as the car accelerates altering the flow of air into the radiator and decreasing drag. Pininfarina provided the classic Ferrari elements; five-spoke star wheels, Prancing Horse fender badges and V8-under-glass engine presentation.

But Pininfarina’s sculpted character lines, flowing fender treatment, high-tech LED headlamps and scowling front fascia take the Italia to the next level.

Lucky owners of Ferrari’s gorgeous 458 Italia will get to know their chiropractors much more intimately. The successor to the F430, the 458 Italia plays the Ferrari numbers game with its 4.5-liter V8 that rings up 570 horsepower and 398 lbs-ft of torque.

At 127 hp-per-liter, the direct-injected V8 pumps out the highest specific output in Ferrari history. Looking at low-end grunt the engine produces about 310 lbs-ft from a low and usable 3,250 rpm. Power flows through Ferrari’s impressive seven-speed F1-bred dual clutch gearbox as the sleek supercar fires off 3.3-second 0-60s en route to its 202 mph terminal velocity.

With a wide powerband and finely honed suspension the 458 Italia is a mean g-force generator and one of the wildest rides on Forza Motorsport 3.”
