Forza Horizon 5: Best Cars To Upgrade
Upgrading vehicles to improve performance is just one exciting feature of Forza Horizon 5, and these are the best cars to upgrade.
However, there will come a time when players need as many credits as possible to afford the many cars, upgrades, cosmetics, and other such tidbits that the game lets players buy. This is where the Auction House comes into the picture, allowing players to sell off their precious vehicles and get a tidy profit in the process. Here are some cars that sell for boatloads in Forza Horizon 5‘s Auction House.
Updated January 25, 2025 by Vlad Mazanko: Forza Horizon 5’s Auction feature is a dynamic marketplace that evolves with the constant addition of new vehicles to the game’s ever-expanding roster. As some cars become more affordable and others grow increasingly valuable, players must stay vigilant to capitalize on these changes and maximize their profits.
While it might be tempting to hold onto rare and expensive hypercars to be able to drive them instead of selling them, some seemingly ordinary vehicles can fetch surprisingly high prices from dedicated collectors eager to complete their collections. The list has been updated to reflect the current state of in-game Auctions as of 2025. Cars that have lost their “very rare” Auction status are highlighted (though they can still be sold for a substantial sum), while new valuable additions from recent content updates have been included, providing fresh opportunities to earn the maximum amount of in-game currency.
1
BMW M4 Competition Coupé
A Newer Iteration Of The Classic, With A Signature Twin-Kidney Grille
- Class: A 778
- Top Speed: 195 mph
The car’s current value has recently dropped slightly below its maximum of 20 million, but it can still be sold for at least 10 million credits at the Auction.
The second generation of the beloved BMW M4 is more charged than ever, serving as a testament to its impressive performance on the open road. One of the newer BMWs in Forza Horizon 5, this vehicle’s appearance turns heads when exploring the world, especially considering how rare it is.
Players who are lucky enough to get one through the Festival Playlist or Forzathon Shop listing should consider selling it right away for a hefty 20 million credits. Apart from the modernized Bavarian looks, it isn’t too extraordinary in its class.
2
Lamborghini Aventador SVJ
An Improvement Over The Aventador SV, With A Much Higher Selling Price
- Class: S1 889
- Top Speed: 223 mph
The car’s current value has recently dropped slightly below its maximum of 20 million, but it can still be sold for at least 16 million credits at the Auction, with some bids reaching as high as 20 million.
The Lamborghini Aventador is one of the coolest cars of all time that players love to check out in any racing game. Forza Horizon 5 is no exception to this golden rule, and trying to get one of these cars in the game can be quite a challenge.
This is especially true for the SVJ variant, which is even pricier and requires a ton of money to procure. If players are lucky enough to get this car, then they can sell it in the Auction House for a cool 20 million credits.
3
Hyundai N Vision 74 2022
A Unique Concept But More Showpiece Than Powerhouse
- Class: A 799
- Top Speed: 155 mph
The car’s current value has recently dropped slightly below its maximum of 20 million, but it can still be sold for at least 16 million credits at the Auction, with some bids reaching as high as 20 million.
One of the standout stars in Forza Horizon 5, introduced during the game’s recent Retrowave update, the Hyundai N Vision 74 is almost too cool and unique for some players to consider selling, especially given that the Auction House prices for the N Vision 74 are highly unpredictable, and not every seller can reliably net the coveted 20 million credits.

The 35 Fastest Cars In Forza Horizon 5 (& How Fast They Can Go)
Playground Games’ Forza Horizon 5 has a huge selection of cars, and these are the fastest in the game.
This hydrogen-fueled electric concept car boasts incredible visual appeal, making it a prized possession for collectors. Despite its striking design, the N Vision 74 has limited upgrade potential due to its unconventional hydrogen-electric configuration. While instant torque makes for a fun driving experience, even with every possible upgrade installed, its performance stats fall short of being groundbreaking. Ultimately, this car feels more like a futuristic showpiece and a proof of concept for hydrogen technology than a practical or dominant choice for competitive racing.
4
Audi RS 4 Avant 2018
- Class: A 751
- Top Speed: 197 mph
Audi is one of the most iconic and beloved car brands, consistently represented in the arcade racing genre. In Forza Horizon 5, the brand boasts a diverse lineup of models with varying performance levels, many of which are notoriously hard to acquire and, as a result, incredibly expensive. The Audi RS 4 Avant ’18 (RS stands for “Racing Sport”) is one such example.
This seemingly ordinary, comfortable Super Saloon, with average driving capabilities, doesn’t stand out on the track but holds significant value in the game’s economy. Consistently selling for 20 million in-game credits, flipping this rare ride is arguably the best use for it once added to a player’s collection.
5
Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R 1998
An Epitome Of Rare Classics Begging To Be Sold
- Class: C 585
- Top Speed: 156 mph
Currently one of the rarest Retro Sports Cars in Forza Horizon 5, the Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R stands out more for its scarcity than for its performance. While it’s nice to see this model finally make its way into Horizon after being a staple in the Forza Motorsport series, it’s not exactly a standout ride.
This version of the FTO includes improvements over the standard model, such as upgraded suspension, a better differential, and thicker anti-roll bars to enhance handling. However, even with these upgrades, the FTO GP Version R delivers below-average stats and a modest appearance. That said, Mitsubishi fans might still appreciate its tuner flexibility, as it offers plenty of body parts for customization.
The real value of the Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R lies in its rarity. The best way to make use of this car after unlocking it is to list it on the Auction House, where it can easily fetch the maximum 20 million credits, making it an instant moneymaker for players.
6
Rivian R1T 2022
Hard To Get Electric Pick-Up That’s Not As Great For Off-Roading
- Class: A 718
- Top Speed: 127 mph
Forza Horizon 5 features two Rivian models, both exceptionally rare and obtainable only as seasonal rewards. The all-wheel-drive electric pickup truck Rivian R1T (alongside the electric SUV Rivian R1S) offers a unique niche in the game. However, despite its distinct appeal, it falls short when compared to other off-road vehicles in terms of performance and racing potential in harsh conditions.

While the Rivian R1T’s rarity and electric drivetrain might tempt some collectors to hold onto it, most players will find it more rewarding to sell either model at the Auction House. The credits earned can be better invested in more competitive and versatile vehicles that excel in various racing disciplines.
7
Volkswagen SP-2 1976
Uniquely Charming For Retro Lovers, And A Real Valuable Gem
- Class: D 252
- Top Speed: 102 mph
The Brazilian-made Volkswagen SP-2 (“São Paulo” or “Sports Prototype”) is a retro masterpiece whose design alone secures its place as an exotic rarity in Forza Horizon 5. With its unmistakable long nose and two-door hatchback coupé silhouette, the SP-2 exudes timeless charm and is even believed to have influenced the iconic Porsche 924. Its real-world scarcity, with only 681 units exported from Brazil, amplifies its allure for collectors.
Sometimes hailed as the most beautiful Volkswagen ever made, the SP-2’s fully steel body showcases an exceptional cosmetic finish that sets it apart from others in its class. Despite its fascinating history and visual appeal, given the car’s amateurish performance, anyone who is not as much into unique retro cars in Forza Horizon 5 might find another purpose when getting the Volkswagen SP-2, exchanging it for a 20 million CR paycheck at the Auction instead.
8
Abarth 695 Biposto
This Charged Hatchback Is A Goldmine
- Class: B 657
- Top Speed: 139 mph
If players manage to get their hands on the Abarth 695 Biposto — obtainable only as a Festival Playlist reward or through the Forzathon Shop — the best way to capitalize on this rarity is by selling it at Auction to collectors eager to hunt down this extremely elusive car. Despite being the fastest production car made by Fiat’s performance division, the Abarth 695 Biposto isn’t a standout on the racetrack in Forza Horizon 5.
This modest-looking hatchback tops out at 139 mph, which isn’t all that impressive by the game’s standards. Though it starts in the middle of the B class with some potential for upgrades, its high trade value far outweighs its performance. Selling this rare gem could easily net players enough to acquire several more powerful vehicles, making it a lucrative option with little downside.
9
Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4
Modernized Legendary Hypercar With Retro Flair
- Class: S1 865
- Top Speed: 227 mph
The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 masterfully blends modern innovation with retro style, embodying the spirit of the original Countach while offering cutting-edge performance. Its sleek body lines and unmistakable rear lights make this hybrid supercar’s silhouette instantly recognizable on any track.

Off-road driving is an inescapable part of Playground Games’ Forza Horizon 4. What are the best cars in the game for off-road racing?
Though keeping this stunning Lambo in one’s collection may be tempting, players looking for quick cash can put it on the Auction House for a guaranteed 20 million credits. With only 112 units ever produced in real life, its rarity in Forza Horizon 5 makes it one of the most desirable vehicles in the game.
10
BMW M635 CSi
Rare Retro Sports Car For True Collectors
- Class: C 589
- Top Speed: 161 mph
The BMW M635 CSi is a classic Retro Saloon that appeals primarily to dedicated collectors and BMW enthusiasts. While its stylish lines and timeless design make it a head-turner, its in-game performance leaves much to be desired compared to other, much more affordable options.
For the average player, the BMW M635 CSi could be a prime candidate to sell for a hefty sum at the Auction House. The proceeds could then be invested in more powerful exotic vehicles, as this retro BMW’s selling price can buy almost every other BMW model in the game, barring a few rare exceptions.
11
Lotus Esprit V8
A Good Candidate To Exchange For Top-Tier Cars
- Class: A 731
- Top Speed: 186 mph
The Lotus Esprit has appeared in many Forza games and has gained many fans over the years. With its distinctive retro appearance, the Lotus Esprit is hard to obtain. Still, once players have it, they might not want to hold onto it too tightly.
In its A class of Forza Horizon 5, the Lotus Esprit V8 remains pretty unremarkable, as it’s an over two-decade-old supercar. Despite its stylish looks, players might prefer something more effective and sell it for a 20 million credit payout at the Auction House.
12
Meyers Manx 2.0 EV
An Electric Version Of The Beloved Classic Buggy
- Class: B 649
- Top Speed: 124 mph
The 2023 Meyers Manx 2.0 EV is an electric-powered reimagining of the classic buggy that was extremely popular in previous Forza games, including Forza Horizon 5. It is based on a completely new architecture and is the first vehicle produced under the ‘Meyers’ name in 50 years.

Despite its obvious uniqueness as a rare electric off-road vehicle in the game, the Meyers Manx 2.0 EV is a bit gimmicky for serious races. It’s best sold at the Auction for a huge 20 million credit payout after players have had some fun with it.
13
Hot Wheels Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Custom
This Sleek Custom Can Make Its Owner Happier — Or Richer
- Class: S1 894
- Top Speed: 175 mph
The 1970 Hot Wheels Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Custom is a looker, with its wide body kit and large flared fenders. It also packs quite a punch on a racing track. This power-hungry muscle produces over 1000 horsepower. It stands as one of the notable examples of the top-tier S1 class, although it may not be the fastest of them.
This is a classic hard-to-get car in Forza Horizon 5, as players can only earn one via the Festival Playlist or Forzathon Shop listing, and can’t obtain it via either a Wheelspin or Super Wheelspin. As of now, selling this Pontiac Custom will earn players a much-desired 20 million credits, but most may not want to part ways with it.
14
Volkswagen Beetle Forza Edition
A Supercharged Version Of The Classic Beetle
- Class: S1 900
- Top Speed: 170 mph
The Volkswagen Beetle is a classic, popular car that is still going strong to this day. Players who want to check out this car in Forza Horizon 5 will be pleased to know that a special edition exists just for the game. It features a unique body kit, black paintwork, and a Speed Skills boost.
That being said, procuring the Beetle FE is an entirely different can of worms. If players get their hands on this car, they’re guaranteed a 20 million payout if they list it on the Auction House. Keep in mind that players are almost guaranteed to acquire one upon completing the game’s ‘Safe Hands’ story mission chain.
15
Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante
A Very Rare, And No Less Impressive Lambo Variation
- Class: A 797
- Top Speed: 196 mph
There are many rare and fast Lamborghini cars in Forza Horizon 5 that sell for a ton of cash, and one such vehicle is the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder. This particular model of the Gallardo is a rare find, making it easy to see why so many people covet this vehicle.

These are some of the best hypercars performance-wise players should prioritize in Forza Horizon 5.
Auctioning this vehicle is bound to net a cool 20 million credits that can be used by the seller to bolster other vehicles or buy more valuable cars in the game. Players can also keep this car for themselves if need be, given how powerful this vehicle is.
16
Hoonigan Gymkhana 10 Ford Hoonicorn Mustang
It Feels Great To Control This Pricey Beast
- Class: S2 952
- Top Speed: 244 mph
The Hoonigan Gymkhana 10 Ford Hoonicorn Mustang — commonly known as the Hoonicorn V2 — is one of the most valuable cars in Forza Horizon 5. This car is extremely rare and always sells for around 20 million credits whenever it’s put on the Auction House.
Not only does this car look great, but it’s well-rounded as well. Players can use this car to win a multitude of races in the game without breaking a sweat. Fortunately, for those who want to earn a buck by selling it and keep this car in the garage, just look for a much cheaper alternative — the Hoonigan Ford Hoonicorn Mustang. It is almost as fast and responsive, and it looks almost identical.
17
Koenigsegg Agera
One Of The Fastest, Rarest Koenigseggs In The Game
- Class: S1 895
- Top Speed: 260 mph
The Koenigsegg Agera is one of the fastest cars in Forza Horizon 5, which is no surprise given the pedigree of this manufacturer. It’s also an extremely expensive car that can take quite some time and money before players manage to obtain this hypercar.
Players who want to sell this car at the Auction House will be happy to know that it sells for an extremely high price, given how rare this car is. That being said, the Agera’s top speed is so incredible that most people might not even want to put it up for Auction in the first place!
18
Porsche 911 GT3
The Seventh Edition Of Porsche’s High-Performance Sports Car
- Class: S1 825
- Top Speed: 202 mph
The Porsche 911 GT3 is one of the most stylish cars in Forza Horizon 5. The car is pretty rare, so it’s easy to see why it would sell for a ton of credits at the Auction House.

Best Retro Sports Cars In Forza Horizon 5, Ranked
Players looking for a car that combines a stylish retro flair with great performance need not look further than these rides in Forza Horizon 5.
It’s a great well-rounded car that players can try in races, although it’s far from the best players can own in the game. For that reason, it’s not a big deal to Auction it off for credits instead. There are several other 911 GT variants available in Forza Horizon 5 for much less money, although the 2021 911 GT3 is probably the newest and most technologically advanced.
19
Mercedes-AMG GT S
Equal Doses Of Speed And Luxury
- Class: A 797
- Top Speed: 193 mph
Mercedes-AMG is a manufacturer with several great cars worth checking out in Forza Horizon 5. One of these vehicles is the GT S, which is a blast to drive since it’s pretty well-rounded across all fronts.
This car is also pretty rare and sells for a ton of money at the Auction House. That being said, players may not want to sell this car, because it’s one of the better A-class vehicles they can use to win races. For those favoring that car and still wanting to make some cash, consider getting the 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT R. This track-focused GT S variant, is much easier to get.
20
Honda NSX-R GT
One Of The Rarest Cars, But Not Impressive Otherwise
- Class: A 725
- Top Speed: 177 mph
The rarest cars are the ones that can’t be found via wheelspins and are pretty hard to acquire otherwise. The Honda NSX-R GT falls in this category, and it takes a great stroke of luck to obtain this car against all odds either in the Forzathon Shop or as a part of a Festival Playlist.
This pre-tuned version of the Honda NSX-R isn’t really all that impressive in terms of performance, so players who want to earn a ton of credits should definitely put this vehicle up for action. 20 million credits are pretty much guaranteed given how rare this car is.
