Highly likely to return based on appearances in Forza Horizon 4 and 5; not yet officially announced for FH6 at the time of writing.
About the 1998 Nissan R390 GT1 in Forza Horizon
Track toys remove the compromises that make road cars liveable. 1998 Nissan R390 GT1 is one of those single-purpose machines: stripped interiors, fixed-back seats, and aero developed for downforce rather than fuel economy. Forza Horizon places these in the S2 and X brackets where their downforce character pays off on circuit-style events.
The 1990s were a creative high point for Nissan performance machinery — tighter regulations had not yet limited engine breathing, and tuner-shop culture was at its peak. Horizon's roster leans heavily into this decade.
In-Game Classification
1998 Nissan R390 GT1 sits in the Track Toys bracket of the Forza Horizon car list. S2 territory means power-to-grip ratio becomes the real engineering problem — R390 GT1 responds well to aero and tire upgrades disproportionate to the engine work.
The RWD drivetrain shapes how R390 GT1 responds to power and tire upgrades — every Forza Horizon entry rewards drivers who understand what their drivetrain layout means for weight transfer in corners.

Where Nissan Sits in Forza Horizon 6
Nissan contributes a substantial slice of the Forza Horizon 6 vehicle catalog. The R390 GT1 fits into that broader Nissan lineage — every entry on the wiki cross-references its in-game class, drivetrain, and country of origin to help players plan their Festival Playlist garage. For a Japan-built Track Toys machine in the S2 class, this is one of the more interesting picks in the full 896-vehicle catalog.
