Fiat Spider on Xbox Forza

My son found this on his video game. Every detail on this car is correct. Amazing.

The cars in Forza are all based (graphically) on photographs of actual cars. The Fiat Spider photographed for the game is owned by a couple (Dan and Sooz) who are long time members of Fiat Enthusiasts Northwest and has over 300k miles on it!
The photographer (Fred) is also a member of FEN, and was instrumental in getting many of the exotic (and not so exotic) Italian cars into Forza. He traveled the world for a number of years, photographing cars for the game; what a gig, eh? What could be better than that? Well, Fred recently left Microsoft to become the curator for Jon Shirley's car collection, which seems to answer the question. Now he has to keep all of Jon's cars ready for Jon to drive without worry, which means driving them regularly. Another tough gig, right?

I haven't run across it and it is not listed to drive. I got the game last winter, is there a newer version of it?

Thanks, I have forza 6. I was disappointed not to see the spider listed for fiat. Gaming is strictly a winter hobby for me. But, I do have a great imaginary collection of Italian beauties in my "garage".

Good videos on YouTube depicting the driving experience.
