Last week in The Crew Motorfest, we got a super expensive bundle featuring the 1,500-hp 2019 Bugatti Divo, although there is still no sign of the 1,775-hp (1,800 ps) Bugatti Tourbillion with its astounding V16. The bundle included two more rides: the 2024 Ford Mustang GT Convertible roaring its 5.0-liter 4th-gen Coyote powerplant and a rally-modified 2010 Camaro SS.
This week, we have two astounding supercars on offer. First on our list is the Ferrari SF90 Stradale, starting at a 641/920 Performance Level. It's equipped with an incredible 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 engine and a triple electric motor setup, which, in tandem, produce 986 hp or 1000 ps. In a straight line, that translates into 0 to 62 mph in just 2.5 seconds, and if you keep going, it'll reach 211 mph or 340 kph. It can also run in eDrive mode up to 15.5 miles or 25 km with a maximum speed of 84 mph (135 kph).

Such a fantastic piece of machinery starts at roughly $530,000 in the US. It doesn't stop there, with the XX Spider version reaching almost a million bucks ($995,000) for 30 more ponies, adding up to 1,016 hp. The other half of the bundle is a little car called the 2017 Ford GT with a 599/920 Performance Level. It first appeared in The Crew 2, listed as a hypercar. It also came as an Interceptor Unit, which looks kind of amazing.

Lugging around its mid-mounted 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 EcoBoost engine, it can deliver 647 hp and 550 lb-ft or 746 Nm of twist. It weighs 3,053 lbs. or 1,384 kg, has a top speed of 216 mph or 347 kilometers per hour, and can hit 60 mph from a standstill in just 2.9 seconds, finishing the quarter mile in 10.6 clicks. The original price for this bad boy was around $454,000, but thanks to inflation, today, it would be worth 581,383 hard-earned (or otherwise) US dollars.

The "SCHMEE150 EXPERIENCE BUNDLE" costs 720,719 in-game Bucks or 102,959 Crew Credits, down from 900,900 Bucks and 128,700 CC.

Lastly, the Custom Bundle features the 2020 KTM X-Bow GTX (Hypercar), complete with Neon Orange Tire, Tangerine Speed Vortex Smoke, and Orange Underglow. Under the hood, this blazing fast crossbow hides a 2.5-liter engine borrowed from the Audi RS3 which can develop 530 horsepower and reach a max speed of 172 mph or 276 kmh.

The vanity items for this car look... not good. The Orange Underglow is the only thing that actually complements the deep black paint job, whereas the tire and smoke effects look like they're from the PlayStation 1 era. The bundle costs 164,360 Crew Credits, meaning real-life money is involved.

As a bonus for those with an extra 70,000 CC to spend and nothing to lose, the Epic "Prismatic Blue Underglow" is for sale. It's quite steep just for a visual effect, no matter how good it might look under your car.

Judging by the low player count on Steam, The Crew Motorfest has seen better days. In the past 24 hours, only 251 people decided to start up the racing game. That's about as low as it gets, unfortunately. It's currently sitting at a 59% Mixed review score from 993 players.

The game isn't bad by any stretch of the imagination, quite the opposite. It's as fun as arcade racing games come. There's a free 5-hour demo on Steam to try it out, and if you decide to buy it, it's part of the Steam Summer Sale that runs through July 11.

The Standard Edition is 28 bucks down from $70, the Deluxe Edition costs 32 US dollars from $80, the Gold Edition is $40 discounted from $100, and the Ultimate Edition is 48 dollars, down from a whopping 112 bucks. The Crew Franchise Bundle, including The Crew 2, is 72% off at $34.18, down from $120.

The latter offer isn't all that enticing, given that Motorfest will outlive it. Ubisoft could shut down the servers from TC2 whenever they wish, like they did with the first 2014 iteration, so it's a risk.
