Forza Horizon 6: Best Cars With Upgrade and Bodykit Presets

Looking for the best cars with upgrade and bodykit presets in Forza Horizon 6? Here are the top picks for visual and performance customization in FH6.

TL;DR

  • FH6 has around 100 widebody kits across roughly 600 cars at launch.
  • Upgrade Presets let you apply a bodykit, rims, and performance parts in one click.
  • Some cars with bodykits don’t appear in the “Bodykit & Presets Available” Autoshow filter — always check manually.
  • JDM brands — Honda, Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, and Mitsubishi — offer the most visual options.
  • The best cars for presets are mostly affordable 1990s–2000s everyday cars that transform into race builds.
  • Widebody kits unlock wider tires and front aero, but add weight and PI cost — plan accordingly.

One of the best parts of Forza Horizon 6 is not just driving fast — it is building your car from the ground up. The game sets you loose in Japan with close to 600 cars and over 100 widebody kits to play with. But the system is not immediately obvious. Not every car with a bodykit shows up in the Autoshow filter. Not every preset gives you the same value. And some of the cheapest cars in the game deliver the most dramatic transformations.

This guide covers the best cars to target if you want the biggest visual and performance gains through Upgrade Presets and bodykit options.

How Upgrade Presets and Bodykits Work in FH6

Upgrade Presets are a one-click system that bundles a widebody kit with matching rims, aero parts, and performance upgrades. You pick a preset, pay the credits, and your car transforms instantly — looks and performance together.

The key thing to know is this: some presets push a car two full performance classes above its stock rating. A basic A-Class car can land in S2 after a preset is applied. That is a massive jump and makes presets worth planning around, not just using for looks.

There are around 100 widebody kits confirmed in FH6 at launch. Brands involved include Liberty Walk, Origin Lab, Do-Luck, Rocket Bunny, Varis, Chargespeed, and Forza-designed kits made exclusively for the game. Some cars even have multiple kits to choose from, which gives you real options for style direction.

One important thing to note: the Autoshow’s “Bodykit & Presets Available” filter does not show every eligible car. Vehicles like the 2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF, the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray, and the iconic 1992 Mazda RX-7 Type R all have bodykit options — but they do not appear in that filtered view. Always check a car’s upgrade menu manually before assuming it has nothing.

Also worth knowing: widebody kits unlock wider tires and front aero options, but they do come at a cost. They add weight, increase drag, and eat into your Performance Index budget. If you do not need the extra tire width for grip, it is sometimes better to skip the kit and spend that PI elsewhere.

Best Cars With Upgrade and Bodykit Presets in Forza Horizon 6

The best candidates for presets are generally affordable JDM cars from the 1990s and early 2000s. They start in lower performance classes, which means the preset-driven class jump is more dramatic. They also tend to have multiple kit options and strong aftermarket brand tie-ins that reflect real Japanese car culture.

2002 Nissan Silvia Spec-R

The Silvia is one of the most customized cars in FH6. It has two brand-new bodykit options added specifically for this game: a Liberty Walk kit and an Origin Lab kit. Both are aggressive widebody setups that completely change the car’s silhouette. The Liberty Walk version leans into the aggressive fender flare style, while Origin Lab goes for a smoother, more street-oriented look. Either way, this is one of the best visual transformations in the entire game.

Performance-wise, the Silvia is a capable base for a solid drift or touge build. Check out our guide to the best cars for touge battles to see where the Silvia fits in.

2000 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec II (R34)

The R34 now has a brand-new Do-Luck widebody kit in FH6 — something fans have wanted for a long time. The Do-Luck kit is clean and purposeful, with wider flares and a more aggressive stance without going overboard. Combined with the R34’s strong all-wheel-drive platform, this makes for a powerful build in multiple classes.

This is a car that works well for both touge events and road racing. See how it fits into the full Hakone Nanamagari touge guide for event-specific tips.

2023 Honda Civic Type R

Honda’s latest Civic Type R gets a Forza-designed exclusive bodykit that was built specifically for this game. It is a sharper, more aggressive take on the already distinctive FK8-successor body. This is one of 14 brand-new bodykit additions in FH6 and fits perfectly with Japan’s car culture theme.

The Civic Type R is also one of the most balanced everyday-performance cars in the game. It is a great starting point for players building their first competitive road car. Take a look at our best starter cars guide to see where it ranks.

2020 Toyota GR Supra A90

The GR Supra A90 comes with an HKS widebody kit in FH6. HKS is a real-world Japanese tuning brand, and seeing their kit on the Supra fits the game’s authentic JDM theme perfectly. The kit adds wide fenders, a more aggressive front fascia, and a look that matches the Supra’s already sporty lines well.

The Supra is also one of the better road racing choices in the A and S1 classes. Check our best roads and mountain passes guide to find where the Supra performs best.

2022 Acura NSX Type S

The NSX Type S gets a Liberty Walk kit in FH6, and it is one of the most visually stunning transformations in the game. Liberty Walk’s approach to the NSX is extreme — wide fenders, overfenders, and a look that sits somewhere between a track car and a show car. The Liberty Walk NSX also gets a matching Upgrade Preset, making the full transformation quick and easy.

This is a high-cost car to buy and upgrade, but the results justify it if you want something that turns heads in photo mode. Speaking of which, see our photo mode guide for the best locations to show it off.

2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR TM Edition

The Evo VI gets a brand-new Varis widebody kit in FH6 — another real-world Japanese tuning brand making its debut in the game. Varis is known for their aggressive aerodynamic packages, and the Evo VI kit delivers that. Wide flares and sharp aero lines make this one of the cleanest-looking preset builds in the game.

The Evo VI is naturally a strong performer in dirt and tarmac events alike. Pair it with the right tune and it becomes very competitive. See our best off-road and dirt car picks for context on where it fits.

1997 Toyota Chaser 2.5 Tourer V

The Toyota Chaser is a sleeper favourite in FH6. It gets a brand-new Origin Lab kit, making it one of the more unique-looking builds in the game. The Chaser does not look like a typical sports car — which makes the Origin Lab widebody even more surprising and effective. It is a car that goes from understated to aggressive with one preset.

The Chaser also fits well in the touge scene given its rear-wheel-drive setup and responsive chassis. Our Mt. Haruna touge guide shows how rear-wheel-drive cars handle that specific route.

1992 Mazda RX-7 Type R

The RX-7 is one of the most iconic JDM cars in the game, and it gets a brand-new Liberty Walk kit in FH6. However, this is one of those cars that does NOT appear in the Autoshow filter under “Bodykit & Presets Available” — so you need to find it manually in your garage or the Autoshow search. The Liberty Walk RX-7 kit is aggressive, wide, and perfectly suited to the FH6 Japan setting.

The RX-7 is also one of the game’s treasure cars. If you haven’t found yours yet, check our Mazda RX-7 treasure car location guide.

2024 Nissan GT-R NISMO (R35)

The latest GT-R NISMO gets a Liberty Walk kit in FH6 — one of the most dramatic transformations available on a modern Nissan. The Liberty Walk R35 kit is a full wide-body conversion with massive fender flares, making the GT-R look far more extreme than the already aggressive NISMO trim suggests.

The GT-R is one of the strongest performers in S1 and S2 class. For more on how to get the most out of the GT-R family in FH6, see our Japan map guide to plan your runs.

2023 Acura Integra A-Spec

The modern Integra gets a Tony Star Performance bodykit — a brand new addition to FH6 and one of the more unique kits in the game. Tony Star Performance is a Japanese tuning house, and their Integra kit has that authentic JDM flavour that matches FH6’s setting well. The Integra is also a more affordable car than the NSX, which makes it a good entry point if you want a premium-looking preset build without spending all your credits.

1985 Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT Apex (Forza Edition)

This is a special one. The iconic AE86 — as a Forza Edition — gets not one but two brand-new Forza-designed bodykits in FH6. The AE86 is already a beloved car in Japanese car culture, and the Forza Edition status means it carries unique performance perks on top of the visual options. It is a Wheelspin-only car, so getting it takes patience, but the visual and gameplay results are worth chasing.

How to Find Cars With Bodykit Presets in FH6

The easiest method is to go to the Autoshow and use the filter for “Bodykit & Presets Available.” This narrows things down quickly. But as mentioned earlier, this filter misses some cars — including the RX-7 Type R, the MX-5 Miata RF, and the Corvette E-Ray. For those, you need to open the Upgrade menu directly and look under the Bodykit or Upgrade Preset tabs.

If you already own a car, you can check it from your garage. Go into the Upgrade shop, select your car, and look for the Upgrade Presets tab. If it has presets available, they show up there with a price and a preview of the performance class change.

It is also worth knowing that the Autoshow filter is not perfect. Some cars shown in the filter may only have minor kit options (like a spoiler or bumper), while cars outside the filter have full widebody conversions. The only reliable way to know is to check each car individually.

Tips for Getting the Most From Upgrade Presets

Before applying a preset, check what class the car lands in after the upgrade. If it jumps two classes, it may become too powerful for the events you are currently doing — or it may open up new, higher-level events you couldn’t enter before. Either way, plan around it.

Widebody kits add weight and drag. If you are building a car purely for performance, think twice before applying a kit just for looks. The PI cost is real, and the extra weight shows up in tight corners and on narrow touge routes. On open circuits or sprint events, a widebody build tends to work better.

For drift builds, widebodies are almost always worth it. The wider tires improve grip during transitions, and the visual style fits the drift scene perfectly. See our best drift cars and tuning setup guide for specific build recommendations.

For touge-specific events, lighter builds often beat fully kitted-out widebody cars. The narrow mountain roads punish extra weight and drag. Our Bandai Azuma touge guide and the complete Touge Battle Mode guide go deeper on this.

Finally, keep an eye on seasonal events and the Festival Playlist — some bodykit-related challenges or bonus cars appear there. See our seasonal events and Festival Playlist guide to stay up to date.

Note

Upgrade Presets and bodykits are one of the most satisfying parts of Forza Horizon 6. The Japan setting gives this system real meaning — you are not just slapping a kit on for looks, you are building cars that feel right at home on the touge roads and city circuits of the game’s map.

The best approach is to pick a car you love the look of, check what kits are available, and then decide whether you want a show car, a drift machine, or a fully competitive race build. The preset system makes all three possible — often with the same car.

If you are just getting started, our beginner’s guide from Tourist to Legend is a great place to start before diving deep into the customization side of the game.
