This October, the universally recognized “cavallino rampante” of Ferrari’s prancing stallion badge makes its return in Forza Motorsport 3, the highly anticipated racing experience from Turn 10 exclusively for Xbox 360. As the perfect complement to Forza Motorsport 3’s sizable Ferrari roster, Turn 10 is also lifting the curtain on an originally designed track, the Amalfi Coast, where fans will enjoy both point-to-point and circuit racing as they speed through the scenic landscape of Italy’s rustic coastline.
As Ferrari takes center stage at the Frankfurt Auto Show in Germany, Microsoft and Turn 10 are excited to announce that Forza Motorsport 3 will include 29 models from the legendary manufacturer, including iconic cars such as the Ferrari 250 GTO, Ferrari 512 TR, Ferrari F40, Ferrari Enzo, and Ferrari 430 Scuderia at the title’s release.
To properly showcase all of the amazing Ferrari models that players will find in Forza Motorsport 3, Turn 10 will be showcasing all 29 models on Forzamotorsport.net, starting today and running for the remainder of the week. These reveals will include exclusive screenshots and information on each model, as well as a few surprises, so be sure to tune in daily.
Additionally, to help complete the Italian racing experience, Forza Motorsport 3 takes racers on a tour through one of the most beautiful destinations in the world – the luxurious Amalfi Coast of Italy. Inspired by the picturesque environments of the coastline, the originally designed Amalfi Coast track is sure to be a fan-favorite for showing off breathtaking videos and screenshots captured in Forza Motorsport 3’s video export and photo modes. As a circuit, the Amalfi coast is 3 kilometers of challenging narrow cobblestone roads, beautiful beachside vistas, and tight tunnels. In its “Rally di Positano” configuration, the Amalfi Coast is over 19 kilometers of white-knuckled tarmac rally heaven. Fans of point-to-point racing will love getting from point A to point B on the many stages of the Amalfi Coast.
Forza Motorsport 3 will be available in Canada on Oct. 27, 2009. For a deeper dive on the cars in today’s reveal and upcoming announcements in the coming days, visit http://forza.xbox.com.
