Which Should You Buy in FH6?
The answer depends on what you're building your garage for. If you're building for Horizon Open competitiveness, check the current meta rankings before spending credits — the meta shifts with each seasonal update and a car that was S-tier last month might be B-tier now. If you're building for driving enjoyment, go with the car that has the more engaging driving character. Check the auction house before buying from the autoshow — many of these cars appear as seasonal rewards and can be 30-50% cheaper on the secondary market. For both cars, budget at least 80,000-120,000 CR for a full upgrade path to their competitive class. A half-built car is worse than a well-tuned car one class lower. The most important factor is how the car fits your driving style — some cars reward aggressive driving, others need smooth inputs. Test drive both in a Rivals event before committing to a build. Five laps in each car will tell you more than any spec sheet can.
