Welcome to the ultimate treasure hunt in Forza Horizon 6! Scattered across Mexico’s nine distinct regions, each area hides a unique Treasure Car just waiting to be discovered. The game provides a photographic clue when you first enter a new region, but those snapshots can be frustratingly vague. “Is that rock formation I see? Which cactus patch?” Don’t worry—we’ve done the hard work for you. In this listicle, we break down every single Treasure Car location, complete with detailed hints and navigation tips. Whether you’re a completionist chasing that 100% garage or just love free, rare rides, these nine cars are worth the hunt. Let’s dive into the regions one by one, starting with the sun-scorched lowlands and ending in the misty highlands.
1. The Desert Oasis Stash – Baja California
Your first treasure hunt begins in the Baja California region. The clue shows a lone palm tree next to a small water hole in the middle of the desert. Head to the coordinates (approx. -1245, 785) near the “Oasis” marked on the map. You’ll find a shallow pond surrounded by sand and a single, tall palm. The treasure chest sits right at the base of the tree. This car is a 2019 Porsche 911 Carrera S—perfect for tearing up the coastal highways. Pro tip: Use the drone to spot the palm from above; it’s easier than driving aimlessly.
2. Canyon Cliffside Prize – Copper Canyon
Copper Canyon’s clue pictures a rusty railroad bridge with a waterfall in the background. Drive to the western edge of the canyon, near the “Puente” fast travel point. There’s a narrow dirt path leading down to the river. At the end, you’ll see a wooden platform under the bridge. The treasure sits there, guarded by a few cacti. The reward: a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454. It handles surprisingly well on the canyon twisties. Look for the waterfall spray to pinpoint the exact location—it’s louder than you think.
3. Jungle Ruins Surprise – Yucatán Jungle
The jungles of Yucatán hide a Mayan ruin in the photo clue, with a small temple overgrown by vines. Fast travel to “Tikal Outpost” and follow the river east until you see a stone staircase. Park your car and walk up (or use a buggy). The chest is nestled between two mossy pillars. Inside, you’ll find a 2020 Lamborghini Huracán Evo—ideal for jungle sprints. Watch out for crocodiles (not real, but the water splashes are annoying). Use the treetop canopy as a landmark from above.
4. Mountain Peak Reward – Sierra Madre
This clue shows a snow-capped peak with a radio tower on top. Go to the highest point of Sierra Madre, roughly at (325, -150). There’s a winding gravel road that ends near a cluster of rocks. The treasure is behind the tower’s base, half-buried in snow. The car: a 2016 Ford Raptor F-150, which laughs at the altitude. Drive carefully; the last turn is icy. You can even use the drone to scout the tower from the valley below.
5. Coastal Lighthouse Catch – Gulf Coast
The Gulf Coast clue depicts an old lighthouse with a red-and-white stripe pattern. Head to the “Farallón” lighthouse on the eastern shore. Park at the base, then walk around to the seaward side—you’ll see a small cave entrance. The chest is just inside, safe from the tide. You get a 1957 Ferrari 335 S, a classic that loves the coastal roads. Time your visit for low tide (the game simulates a daily tide cycle, making the cave easier to access).
6. Farmland Folly – Central Valley
Central Valley’s clue shows a red barn with a windmill next to a field of sunflowers. Go to the “Agrícola” farm near the center of the region. The barn is unmistakable—drive around the back, where you’ll find an old tractor wreck. The chest is under the tractor’s shadow. This one contains a 2012 Audi R8 V10 plus. It’s a balanced car for both road and dirt. Look for the sunflower field that matches the photo orientation exactly.
7. Volcano Crater Cache – Volcán
The volcano region’s clue features a steaming crater with a wooden observation deck. Drive to the “Caldera” fast travel point, then hike up the trail to the rim. The deck is on the south side; the treasure is tucked under the bench. Reward: a 1992 Lancia Delta HF Integrale EVO—perfect for those loose gravel roads. Watch your step—the edge is slippery, and you don’t want to tumble in.
8. Desert Village Gem – Sonora Desert
Sonora’s clue shows an abandoned gas station with a rusty sign. Find the “Viejo” town on the map, near the northern border. The gas station is on the main road, with a faded “30” on the price sign. The chest is inside the station’s garage, half-hidden by an old tire. The car: a 2021 Ford Bronco Wildtrak—ready for more desert adventures. Check the mini-map for the gas station icon; it’s marked as a point of interest.
9. Highland Lake Secret – Highlands
Finally, the Highlands clue pictures a serene lake with a lone cabin on the shore. Travel to “Lago Azul” and find the small wooden dock. The cabin is east of the lake; go inside through the broken window. The chest sits on the bed. You earn a 2019 McLaren Speedtail—the fastest Treasure Car. Don’t forget to take a photo for the Horizon Promo while you’re there.
And there you have it—all nine Treasure Cars revealed. Each treasure not only adds a rare vehicle to your garage but also offers a fun detour into Mexico’s beautiful landscapes. Forza Horizon 6 rewards those who take the time to explore beyond the main roads. Whether you’re after the exotic McLaren or the rugged Raptor, these hunts are a fantastic way to see every corner of the map. So grab your camera, fill up the gas tank, and start hunting. Happy driving!
