Even better, a teaser has been released for the series' next installment, and it's safe to say that the German manufacturer is back for good.

Forza Horizon is not Forza 5, it's a spin off more akin to Test Drive Unlimited.

Good to see Porsche finally making it into Forza 4. Will put off playing it until then... :D

There is a Porsche pack coming to FM4 I wonder if this means all the RUF stuff will be re branded or we'll have both sets of cars.

Why would they rebrand them? They're RUF tuned Porsches under license from RUF. Much as AMG cars are tuned Mercedes cars but are listed as AMG.
Not the same cars so there's no issue.

Some stuff on VG247 about it: http://www.vg247.com/2012/03/05/forza-h ... rns-to-f4/
It might not end up just like TDU, but it's not going to be Forza 5 either.
