I want a McLaren F1 real bad, plus I need to start getting some 2Mil race cars to be competitive in the later championships.

My SV can't pwn JGTC Supras around Le Mans.

You guys need to quit playing ARCADE mode and get into GT mode. That's where you make money, the physics are more realistic, etc.

As far as money goes, I haven't found the one race that earns a big payday every time. In GT4, one of the easier races gave you a Toyota Rally Truck that you could sell for 250,000 credits. I'd do that race 10-20 times over and over, then cash in the millions of credits. I haven't found it in GT5 (nor have I found a way to clear the trophies so you can win bonus cars again). The most valuable car I've won was the FT-86 Concept, but I sold it to get the RUF BTR.

I'm just trying to clear all the levels - almost done with all beginner races except for the pre-'79 Japanese race. About halfway done with amateur races and I've knocked out 2-3 of the next tier (Professional?). The key is to also earn experience (through races and license tests) or you can't participate or buy higher-level cars.

A lot of cars show up randomly in the Used Car section. If it's not at the dealership, you'll have to keep checking the used cars...
