Two cars are worth chasing before Series 6 closes on Thursday, November 5: the 2015 Koenigsegg One:1 (160 points per the Festival Playlist hub, S2 890, the highest PI of any Series 6 reward) and the 2025 BMW M4 CS (80 points, S1 733, new to Horizon). Both are series-wide rewards, so they stay open until the last day. The One:1 is the best car on the list; the M4 CS is the one you are most likely to reach, so lock it in first. Everything else is a collector’s call, and six of the eleven reward cars have already left the playlist.
One thing the title glosses over: forza.net’s Series 6 post words its rewards as “Earn X PTS,” so points are thresholds you reach, not currency you spend. The real cost of each car is your play time, and that is what the verdicts below price.
All 11 Series 6 reward cars, ranked
Open cars come first. Only the One:1 and M4 CS earn a clear “worth it.”
| Car | Class / PI | How it unlocks | Status on Nov 1 | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015 Koenigsegg One:1 | S2 890 | 160 pts, series-wide (also in the Wheelspin pool) | Open to Nov 5 | Worth it. Best pick. Highest PI of the set |
| 2025 BMW M4 CS | S1 733 AWD | 80 pts, series-wide | Open to Nov 5 | Worth it. Lock first. New to Horizon, Playlist-only route |
| 1991 Honda CR-X SiR | C 465 | 40 pts, Spring | Open to Nov 5 | Take it if you collect retro hatches. Playlist-only route |
| 1968 Holden Monaro GTS 327 | D 366 RWD | 20 pts, Spring | Open to Nov 5 | Skip unless collecting. 249 hp, joint-lowest 20-point threshold |
| 1973 Lamborghini Espada 400 GT | C 477 | 1,100 pts across multiple series (Series History Reward) | Open | Skip unless you finish every playlist you start |
| 2004 Saleen S7 | S1 773 RWD | 20 pts, Winter | Closed Oct 29 | Would have been worth it. Returning car |
| 2018 DeBerti Ford Mustang GT | S1 733 RWD | 20 pts, Autumn | Closed Oct 22 | Would have been worth it. 750 hp, returning car |
| 1986 Audi Sport quattro S1 | S1 726 | 40 pts, Winter | Closed Oct 29 | Skip. The car list also shows an Autoshow route |
| 2010 Nissan 370Z | B 568 | 40 pts, Autumn | Closed Oct 22 | Skip. Already a Series 1 reward |
| 2000 Honda Prelude Type SH | C 455 FWD | 20 pts, Summer | Closed Oct 15 | Nice-to-have. Needed for the “Please Visit Again!” badge |
| Toyota Corolla SR5 (1973 on the Playlist hub, 1974 on the car list) | D 197 | 40 pts, Summer | Closed Oct 15 | Skip. Lowest PI of the set |
Where forza.net disagrees with itself
The Series 6 news post lists five Playlist cars. The Festival Playlist hub adds the One:1 as Series Reward 2 and four 40-point season cars. I followed the hub, since it is the live table, but check the 160-point bar in your in-game Playlist before you plan around it. The car list files the One:1 under “Seasonal”, its label for every Playlist car (the M4 CS included), and also under Wheelspin, so a spin can still land it. That is luck, not a plan.
Why 160 is a big ask: the top season reward each week sits at 40 points. That suggests roughly 40 points a week is on offer, which makes 160 about a full clear of all four weeks if you collect the maximum every week. That is my inference, not a forza.net figure, and the hub lists the challenges without publishing their point values.
Reset timing: when Series 6 actually closes
The series opened Thursday, October 8 at 2:30 PM UTC, and the weekly windows in the news post run Thursday to Thursday: Oct 8–15, 15–22, 22–29 and 29–Nov 5. Neither page states the closing hour of the last week. By the opening clock it would be 2:30 PM UTC on November 5, which is 9:30 AM Eastern, 6:30 AM Pacific and 3:30 PM in Central Europe (US clocks went back on Nov 1, European clocks on Oct 25). Treat that as an inference and finish the night before.
The finish order for the last days
The right plan depends on the number in your series bar, so check it first. Spring is the live week: seven dailies, the weekly “A Retro Adventure” (a 1980 Renault 5 Turbo set: dirt race, wreckage skills, Trailblazers), a photo challenge and a Hokubu treasure hunt. Do the dailies every day you have left, and read the bar after each one rather than trusting a per-challenge guide.
| Where your series bar is | What to do |
|---|---|
| 160 or more | Nothing for the One:1 is left. Clear Spring for the CR-X SiR (40) and Monaro (20), then stop unless you are tracking the Espada. |
| 80 to 159 | The M4 CS is banked. Put every remaining daily and the weekly into the One:1, and skip side content. |
| Under 80 | As a guideline, treat the One:1 as a stretch. Aim at the M4 CS first, then the CR-X SiR. |
| Collector or completionist | Take the Monaro and CR-X SiR for the garage. Chase the Espada only if you will keep playing into the City Life series. |
Series 5 had the same shape: ten cars, a few worth the effort. Our Series 5 reward-car breakdown and the Horizon Decades list show how earlier series priced their cars.
The 7-Eleven content, and what is already gone
Series 6 is built around a 7-Eleven collaboration. A limited-time Evolving World Car Meet sits in the Nangan region near the Nangan Day Trip, and the konbini itself stays available as an EventLab prop. Behind the store, the Aftermarket stocks the 2008 Mazda Furai and 1989 Toyota MR2 SC, plus the Wheelspin-exclusive 1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR. The Konbini Prop Pack adds 17 props, and an Egg Salad Sandwich collectible joins the list (our collectibles guide covers the rest).
Two badges come with it: “Welcome!” for playing during the series, and “Please Visit Again!” for parking the Prelude Type SH at the meet. The Clerk Uniform needed a snapshot of the meet during week one, so it is closed. A 1970 Citroën 2CV Treasure Car is also hidden in Japan, found through an in-game photo clue.
Car Pass context
Car Pass is separate from the Playlist and costs no points. It delivers one car each Thursday: the 1972 Datsun 240Z #5 Rallye (B 538, Oct 8), 2024 Ferrari Purosangue (S1 713, Oct 15), 1990 Eunos Cosmo (C 487, Oct 22) and 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4Matic+ (S1 742, Oct 29). It comes with the Deluxe and Premium Editions and the Premium Upgrade, and is sold separately to Standard and Game Pass players; our Premium Edition breakdown has the math. The next update, City Life, adds three more new-to-Horizon Playlist cars.
