The credit costs in Forza Horizon 6 can get genuinely absurd. The most expensive car in the Autoshow sits at 70 million credits, which is the kind of number that makes you stare at your garage balance and reconsider every race you've ever skipped. These aren't just status symbols either. Some of the priciest vehicles carry real racing history, and a handful of them are worth every credit. Here's a breakdown of all 10 most expensive cars at launch, what you actually get for the money, and where to prioritize your spending.
What are the most expensive cars in Forza Horizon 6?
Here's every car in the top 10 by Autoshow price at launch. Note that future car additions could shift this list.
Every single car here is Legendary rarity, and every one except the Porsche Mission R runs RWD. The Zonda R scores highest at 918, while the Ferrari 250 GTO sits at the bottom with 494.

The top 5 most expensive cars
1967 Ferrari #24 Ferrari Spa 330 P4 (70,000,000 credits)
The most expensive car in the game, period. The Ferrari Spa 330 P4 is an A-class vehicle with a score of 684 and RWD. Only three of these cars exist in real life. In 1967, two of them (plus a Ferrari 412 P) crossed the finish line together at the 24 Hours of Daytona, a direct response to Ford's 1-2-3 sweep at Le Mans the year before. That history alone justifies the price tag.
In-game, it leads the top 5 in acceleration and launch stats by a clear margin, making it the best off-the-line car of the bunch. It's fractionally slower than the GT40 at top speed, but if you need to get off a corner fast, nothing here touches it. The braking around tight corners can be an issue, so budget for a tuning upgrade if you plan to race it seriously.

1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR (60,000,000 credits)
The 300 SLR is B-class with a score of 599, and it holds the record as the most expensive car ever sold at auction in real life, going for approximately $157 million. In 1955, it was the fastest car on the planet, hitting up to 180 mph. Stirling Moss, a 16-time Formula One race winner, called it "the greatest sports racing car ever built."
In Forza Horizon 6, it's the lightest of the top 5 but doesn't top any specific performance stat. It's a prestige buy more than a performance buy, though the real-world story behind it makes it one of the most interesting cars in the garage.
1962 Ferrari 250 GTO (48,000,000 credits)
The Ferrari 250 GTO costs 48 million credits and is, statistically, the weakest car on this list. It's the only C-class car in the top 5, carries a score of just 494, and shares the worst handling and braking figures with the Shelby Cobra. Only 33 were ever built in real life, and it holds the record for the most expensive Ferrari ever sold at auction.
The honest take: you're buying this for the garage, not the race grid. That said, taking it for a cruise around Mt. Haruna is a genuinely different experience than anything else in the game.
Don't drop 48 million credits on the Ferrari 250 GTO expecting competitive race performance. Its 494 score puts it well behind the other top-5 cars. It's a collector's piece first.
1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe (20,000,000 credits)
The Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe is B-class with a score of 515. It has the worst handling and braking stats of the top 5 and the second-lowest rating overall. In real life, it racked up GT class wins from 1964 to 1965, including at Le Mans and Daytona. In-game, it's mainly a vibes car, though tuning can bring it up to speed if you're determined.
1966 Ford #2 GT40 Mk II (13,200,000 credits)
The Ford GT40 Mk II is the cheapest of the top 5 at 13.2 million credits, but it's also the fastest, heaviest, highest-horsepower, and highest-torque car of the five. It's A-class with a score of 666. This is the car that broke Ferrari's six-year winning streak at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and it did it by taking first, second, and third all at once.
For the money, this is the best pure performance pick of the five most expensive cars. If you're not chasing the Ferrari Spa 330 P4 for its launch stats, the GT40 Mk II is the more versatile option.

What about the rest of the top 10?
The cars ranked 6 through 10 are far more attainable price-wise, but some of them outperform the top 5 by a significant margin on paper.
The 2009 Pagani Zonda R scores 918, making it the highest-rated car in the entire top 10, and it costs only 4.75 million credits. The 2022 Porsche Mission R hits 865 and is the only AWD car on the list, which gives it a handling advantage over every RWD car above it. The 1997 McLaren F1 GT scores 769 and costs 5.5 million.
If raw performance is the goal rather than collecting rare machinery, the 4.75 million credit Zonda R beats everything in the top 5 on score alone. That's a useful thing to keep in mind before committing 70 million credits to the Spa 330 P4.
How do you actually afford these cars?
The source materials note two main paths for players who don't want to grind millions of credits. First, Car Vouchers can be redeemed directly for Autoshow cars, bypassing the credit cost entirely. The Ferrari Spa 330 P4 is the obvious target for any voucher you're holding. Second, Treasure Cars and Barn Finds scattered around Tokyo give you access to rare vehicles without touching your credit balance.
For players coming from previous Forza titles, loyalty rewards offer up to 6 free cars just for your play history. See the Forza Horizon 6 loyalty rewards guide for exactly which cars are available and how to claim them.
Is the most expensive car worth buying?
The Ferrari Spa 330 P4 is the best car on this list for off-the-line acceleration and launch, and the real-world history behind it is genuinely compelling. But at 70 million credits, it's a massive investment for a car that gets edged out on top speed by the GT40 Mk II and outscored by the Zonda R by over 200 points.
The honest answer: buy it if you want to own one of the rarest cars in gaming, or use a Car Voucher to skip the grind entirely. For competitive racing, the Pagani Zonda R at 4.75 million credits is the smarter spend.
