If you're diving into the sprawling landscapes of Forza Horizon 6, you’ll quickly discover that Japan is not just visually stunning—it’s loaded with hidden gems. Among them are 9 Treasure Cars scattered across the map. Unlike Barn Finds from previous Horizon titles, these beauties are available right from the start. No campaign milestones, no restoration delays. Just explore, find, and claim them.

How Treasure Cars Work

Treasure Cars are simple to collect once you know the system:

1. Clue Activation: Drive near a hidden car and Mei, your in-game guide, will trigger a radio alert. A postcard clue then appears in your pause menu under Cars > Treasure Cars.
2. Collection: Approach the vehicle and trigger the Collect prompt. A brief cutscene plays, sending the car straight to your garage.
3. Rewards: Collecting all 9 Treasure Cars unlocks the Treasure Hunter achievement and the Lost and Found profile badge. Even better, investing a skill point into any Treasure Car’s mastery tree grants an instant 10,000 XP boost.

Treasure Car Locations

Here’s a quick breakdown of all 9 Treasure Cars and where to find them:

1. 1991 Nissan Figaro – Tokyo City’s southern district. Look for a parking lot near the coastline and Rainbow Bridge.
2. 1969 Dodge Charger R/T – Southwestern region. Parked at a scenic cliffside viewpoint, accessible via off-road.
3. 1985 Nissan Safari Turbo – Far eastern Ito Region. Check under a windmill at the coastal wind farm.
4. 1974 Lancia Stratos HF Stradale – Northern alpine mountains. Behind an isolated estate in the snow.
5. 1995 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution III GSR – Takashiro region. At a waterfall parking lot past a torii gate.
6. 1981 BMW M1 – Northwestern farmlands. Near a red tower homestead.
7. 1987 Porsche 959 – Central map zone. Behind a building with golf carts.
8. 1985 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE – Ohtani western hills. Among buildings near radio towers.
9. 2005 Ford GT – Northwestern urban grid. Hidden in narrow back alleys between buildings.

Each car is strategically placed to encourage exploration and reward players for scouting every corner of Japan’s map.

Tips for Hunting Treasure Cars

• Use the Postcard Clues: They point to the exact region, not just a general area.
• Drive Slowly: Many Treasure Cars are tucked in hard-to-see corners.
• Off-Road Vehicles Help: Some cars are off the beaten path, so having a capable off-road vehicle saves time.
• Check Free Roam Regularly: Even after collecting one Treasure Car, keep an eye out—others may appear nearby.

Treasure Cars in Forza Horizon 6 are a joy for explorers. They encourage roaming, reward keen eyes, and offer instant garage additions. Whether you’re chasing the Treasure Hunter achievement or just want to own every unique ride, this guide gives you everything you need to claim all 9 cars efficiently.
