Forza 2 website re-launches

Car porn alert.

Microsoft's Forza PR machine cranked into overdrive this week, with the launch of a revamped official website.

The site's latest update leads with a gigantic list of the European production cars that will make it into the game, from manufacturers including Audi, Bentley, Aston Martin, McLaren, Koenigsegg, Lotus, and TVR. Go see.

Elsewhere on the site, you'll be able to log in with your Xbox Live Gamertag and "check out a personalized homepage summarizing your online racing statistics, auctions, and tournaments."

Not only that you'll be able to "view and download pictures you've taken within FM2's Photo Mode and share them with friends in our forums or create your own wallpapers", "browse the Forza Motorsport 2 online auction house for an amazing array of customized cars put up for and by the community. Plus, keep tabs on the cars you're currently auctioning and bidding on."

The site also boasts a tournament section, scoreboard, news updates, a blog section from developer Turn 10, and, of course the forums.

We're hoping to get a hands-on with a feature-complete preview build soon. Check back for all the latest on this essential-looking driving title - or you'll have Tom to answer to.
