I will rewrite my review based on the update 7.

Visual and Performance Issues:

Reflections and Ray Tracing Concerns:

Reflections are restricted to non-ultrawide screens in the "hood camera view."
Roof graphics turn mostly black when Ray Tracing (RT) is enabled, indicating a malfunction in the RT implementation.
Significant visual noise in dark areas with RT enabled, degrading the visual quality.
Ray Tracing does not accurately render shiny materials, causing them to appear blurred and low-resolution, akin to foggy 240p plastic.

Display and Frame Rate Problems:

Lack of ultrawide support in menus or replay, limiting the immersive experience for ultrawide monitor users.
Locking the frames per second (fps) to 60 (vsync) fails to function properly.
Incorrect contrast and colors when playing in HDR1000 mode, affecting the game's visual fidelity.

Overall Graphics Quality:

The game suffers from a general lack of detail in car models and textures.
There’s a need for a complete visual overhaul to meet current gaming standards.



Vehicle Customization Shortcomings:

Inability to customize car interiors.
Absence of options to add spacers to wheels.
No feature to rev engines to hear the difference in sounds after upgrades, reducing the depth of the customization experience.
Extremely limited visual upgrades available for vehicles.

Interaction and Viewing Options:

Restricted camera mobility when viewing cars in the menu, including a lack of backview/backseat view, limiting player engagement.
Conclusion:

These identified issues severely impact the overall gaming experience, necessitating urgent attention for improvements. The current state of the game does not meet the expectations set by its predecessors, and as a long-time fan of the Forza series, I find this release disappointing. Addressing these areas is crucial for earning a recommendation. The game's potential is undermined by its visual, performance, and customization limitations. A dedicated effort to resolve these problems could restore the faith of the community and uphold the series' esteemed reputation.
