FH6 Series 3 Spring Playlist Guide: Get the Huayra R and Huracán EVO Spyder Before They’re Gone

August 6–13, 2026 | ApexSpeedCraft

The Short Version

This is your last week of Italian Exotics. Series 3 ends Thursday, August 13 at 9:30 AM ET — after that, Series 4 Horizon Mascot Party kicks off and these cars rotate out.

This week’s reward cars:

Points	Car	Worth It?
20 pts	2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder	Yes — new to Forza
40 pts	2022 Pagani Huayra R	Absolutely

The Huracán EVO Spyder is brand new to the franchise — you can’t get it any other way right now. The Pagani Huayra R is an R-class Extreme Track Toy sitting at 954 PI with an 838 bhp V12 — the highest-performance reward car in all of Series 3. Both are worth the grind.

Also still earnable this week (if you’re behind):

Points	Car	Window
80 pts total	2024 Lamborghini Temerario	Whole of Series 3
120 pts total	2022 Ferrari 296 GTB	Whole of Series 3
500 pts lifetime	1972 Mazda Cosmo 110S Series II	Series History reward

If you’ve been playing consistently through Italian Exotics, you likely already have the Temerario. If not, you need all 53 Spring points plus enough banked from prior weeks to hit 80 total. Do the math before you start — it tells you exactly how hard you need to push.

How Many Points Do You Need?

Each season has up to 53 points available. Here’s the Spring reward ladder:

20 points → 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder
40 points → 2022 Pagani Huayra R
53 points → Full season completion

You don’t need to do everything to get both cars — you need 40 out of 53, which is very achievable in a focused 2–3 hour session.

Fastest Route to 40 Points

Here’s the optimal order if you’re playing efficiently:

1. Photo Challenge — 2 points (~5 minutes)

Always start here. It’s the fastest points in the playlist. Find the featured car or location, snap the shot in Photo Mode, done. Zero skill requirement.

2. Treasure Hunt — 3 points (~10 minutes)

Read the clue in the Festival Playlist menu, drive to the location, smash the chest. Prior weeks in Series 3 have used the Hokubu region and Hirosaki Castle area. Keep an eye on the clue wording — it usually points you at a landmark you’ve already driven past.

3. The Trial — 10 points (~30–45 minutes)

The single biggest point payout available in a week. Six players vs. six Unbeatable AI Drivatars across a best-of-three championship. Requires your Gold Wristband to access.

This week’s Trial tips:

Bring a stable, clean car — not your most powerful build. Clean finishes help the team more than reckless overtakes.
The Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 (tune code 132 959 932) is the community’s go-to S2 build for Trial events in Series 3.
If your teammates are struggling, focus on consistent top-3 finishes rather than hunting the win — the team score is cumulative.
You can lose individual races and still win the Trial if your team’s combined positions outscore the AI.

4. Seasonal Championships — 5 points each (~15–20 minutes each)

Three championships are available this week, each worth 5 points. Win the championship (not just a race) and you get the points plus a bonus car reward. Check the class restriction before you commit to building a car — prior weeks have leaned on C-class and S1 restricted events.

Quick car tips for championship restrictions:

C-class events: The 1989 Nissan Silvia K’s (your starting car) upgraded to the top of C 500 has been the workhorse across Series 3. Don’t overthink it.
S1 events: Any well-tuned Italian S1 car works — the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and Ferrari Roma both cover this bracket cleanly.
Always tune to the maximum PI allowed in the class. An A 699 car in an A 700 championship is leaving performance on the table.

5. PR Stunts — 2 points each (~5 minutes each)

Speed Zones, Speed Traps, Danger Signs, and Trailblazers. Each one is worth 2 points. Three available this week. You don’t need a special car for most of these — any S1 or S2 build with decent top speed clears them comfortably. Fast-travel to each one, hit the target, collect the points.

6. Weekly Forzathon — 5 points (~20–30 minutes)

A 4-chapter sequential challenge built around a specific featured car — the 2014 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 continues to be prominent in Series 3’s weekly challenges. If you don’t own it, check the Autoshow (around 200,000 credits) or the Auction House before buying at full price. The chapters cover a skill chain, a time attack, and a photo — nothing mechanically demanding.

7. Daily Challenges — 1 point each, 5,000 CR each

Seven available across the week. Each one takes 5 minutes or less. Don’t skip these — 7 extra points adds up and they require almost no effort. Common types: win a road race, complete a drift zone, earn a skill chain in a specific car class.

Running Tally: Getting to 40

Activity	Points
Photo Challenge	2
Treasure Hunt	3
The Trial	10
2 × Seasonal Championships	10
3 × PR Stunts	6
Weekly Forzathon	5
Total	36

You’re 4 short of 40 with that lineup — add 4 daily challenges and you’re done. That’s one day of dailies plus everything above. You don’t need to touch the third championship or grind EventLab unless you’re pushing for the full 53 or a specific Series total.

The Two Reward Cars — Are They Worth It?

2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder — 20 points

New to Forza Horizon 6. The open-top version of the Huracán EVO, which was already available as a coupe in Series 3 Autumn. That Playground included both variants in the same Series is a little odd — but the Spyder is a genuinely separate car in terms of feel, and it’s the only way to get it right now.

In FH6 it sits at S1 class stock. It’s a Modern Supercar — competent across road events, Touge at the S1 level, and street racing. Not a meta-defining car, but a solid addition to any Italian garage and a future Auction House asset once Series 3 ends.

Bottom line: 20 points is nothing. Get it.

2022 Pagani Huayra R — 40 points

This is the headline car of the final week, and it deserves to be. The Huayra R is an R-class Extreme Track Toy — a track-only machine in real life, translated into FH6 as one of the most capable high-PI cars in the game. An 838 bhp 6.0-litre V12 on rear-wheel drive, sitting at 954 PI. It is not forgiving. It is very fast.

The Huayra R appeared previously in FH5 through the Horizon Racing Car Pack — if you missed it there, this is your chance.

Bottom line: The best car available in Series 3’s weekly rewards. 40 points for a 954 PI R-class machine is excellent value. Chase it.

Last Chance: Series Cars Expiring Thursday

When Series 3 ends August 13, the following cars leave the playlist permanently until Playground runs them back in a future series:

2024 Lamborghini Temerario (80 Series points)
2022 Ferrari 296 GTB (120 Series points)
1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5 (20 points, Summer week — already expired)
2004 Maserati MC12 (40 points, Summer week — already expired)
2017 Abarth 124 Spider (20 points, Autumn week — already expired)
2020 Lamborghini Huracán EVO (40 points, Autumn week — already expired)
1982 Lancia 037 Stradale (20 points, Winter week — already expired)
2020 Ferrari Roma (40 points, Winter week — already expired)

If you’ve been saving your Series points, the Temerario at 80 and the 296 GTB at 120 are still earnable this week. Add your Spring points to whatever you’ve banked across Summer, Autumn, and Winter and see where you land.

Miss them this week and you’re looking at the Auction House or waiting for a future rerun — expect 5–20 million credits for the popular Italian cars once they rotate out.

What’s Coming Next: Series 4 Horizon Mascot Party

Series 4 launches Thursday, August 13 and it’s shaping up to be one of the more unique seasonal themes in FH6’s short live-service life. Horizon Mascot Party leans into Japan’s regional mascot culture — the beloved local characters that represent cities, prefectures, and festivals across the country. Expect exploration-focused content alongside the usual championship and PR stunt structure, and what could be the most distinctly Japan-flavoured series yet.

Full guide drops here on ApexSpeedCraft when the Series 4 challenges go live Thursday morning.

FAQ

When does Spring Season end? Thursday, August 13, 2026 at 9:30 AM ET / 6:30 AM PT. That’s when Series 4 goes live and Spring rewards rotate out.

Can I still earn the Temerario this week? Yes — the Temerario requires 80 cumulative Series 3 points, which span all four weeks. If you have 40+ from prior weeks, you can hit 80 by completing Spring fully. Check your current Series total in the Festival Playlist menu.

What if I miss the Huayra R? Your options are the Auction House (expect inflated prices immediately after it rotates out) or waiting for a Series rerun — Playground has been running some Series 2 cars back already in Series 3, so reruns are a confirmed mechanic. It just might be months away.

Do I need to claim the reward manually? Yes. Reward cars don’t auto-add to your garage — you need to open the Festival Playlist menu and claim them once you cross the point threshold. Don’t leave the game without claiming.

Is The Trial required? No, but it’s the fastest 10 points available. If you don’t have your Gold Wristband yet, fill the gap with an extra Championship (5 pts) and more daily challenges.
