We're now into the final week of the Forza Horizon 5 Cars & Coffee, with a fresh set of challenges running over the next seven days to round out the themed events.

The Series is marked by the appearance of a new location: the "Horizon Cars & Coffee Shop". This venue is at the bottom of the main highway, within the traffic circle, and serves as a meeting and photography location.

As usual, there's an all-new car available for scoring 20pt in this final season, and the usual additional reward of a previous playlist-exclusive car for 40pt this season. The Series is also marked by a DLC pack that focuses on JDM vehicles, with two of them available to test for free in Monthly Rivals.

Series 36: Horizon Cars & Coffee

The Series has a total of 300pt available from challenges across the four weeks, split evenly to comprise 75pt per season. To reach this mark you will need to own the DLC packs — which make up 56pt — although this isn't necessary for the series to be marked as complete.

Scoring 80pt across the Series will reward you with the new-to-game Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato '18, and there's another chance to pick up the Playlist-exclusive DeBerti Ford Mustang if you hit 160pt in total.

Series 36 Spring/Hot Season Rewards

Scoring 20 points across this season's challenges will see you earn the new Volkswagen Thing '73, and there's another chance to pick up the Lancia 037 Stradale for scoring 40pt.

Spring will run until 1430UTC on Thursday August 15, bringing Series 36 to a close alongside it. We're expecting to hear more about Series 37, "High-Performance Dailies", early next week.

Series 36 Spring Playlist: Forzathon Events

This week's Forzathon Weekly Challenge requires the Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II. Each of the seven Daily Challenges — one new event each day at 1430 UTC — awards its usual point.

The challenges are largely easy to check off, though you will need to visit EventLab Island at one point (which can be combined with the event there this week). Also note that the Lumberjack Skill requires to to smash fallen branches, most readily found between trees in La Selva, at sufficient speed.

Series 36 Spring Playlist: Season Events

Around half of the 40 Season Events points this week come through online multiplayer events, for which you'll need at least Xbox Live Core (unless you play on PC).

Between them, Horizon Tour and The Trial offer up 18 points, both forming online team championship challenges for players against a six-strong field of AI players.

The PR Stunts again all require the same car this week, using the International Scout 800. You'll need to tune it up to C Class (501-600PI) specifications, and it's worth getting it into dirt racing shape as the challenges all require some off-roading — but they're easy enough.

You can pick up the car from one of the two Seasonal Championships this week. Both are Road Racing events, for D Class (≤500PI) Cult Cars in the Going International event — awarding the Scout — and B Class (601-700PI) Modern Sports Cars in Just My Type.

That just leaves two more EventLab challenges this week. These are community-created custom courses that have been selected by Playground Games for unique challenges.
