Which is why it's really lame that in this game you don't get penalized for cutting corners.

lol, I've stopped deleting the cars as I have so many. Gonna check my garage later on

Btw, bought the Lambo Nomad Diablo. It seems pretty cool, but haven't driven it yet. Anyone tried it out? It just looked so awesome I had to buy it. Still waiting for that Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak car to appear in the Used Car section. God, I love that car from the earlier games!

Someone had said they bought the Diablo as well, cant remember who though. I just keep doing practices and backing out to update my used lot to find something rare.

EDIT: Nismo Fairlady Z Z-tune, 270R, and R34 R-tune now im my possesion =)
Now I jus need the R32 s-tune and the Nismo 400R

I got an r-34 (maybe 33) with the nurburggring package and I tuned it to 800 bhp It really destroys the competition on japanese challenges. Love that car!

Yeh, that R92CP is pretty illusive. One of three cars (other is the racing Merc and Pikes Peak rally car) in the whole game that I am after. Note: I dont collect crappy cars for the sake of a large garage - only good ones.

I'm nearly up to level 40 now so soon will be spending my 20M cr of some nice coloured X2010's...

Once you hit level 35 it opens up the X2010 to buy in the new car dealership. There are like about 10 different colours to choose from. Each car costs 20m credits but you have to be level 40 before you can actually buy one.
