Why are traders so intent on Getting cars with 0 Miles? the whole point of this game is to drive the Cars, Not stare at them in the virtual garage..it's beyond me.
 
Why are you so mad with how other people choose to play their game?
 
I agree. That's why I make it a point that mileage doesn't matter to me when I post a wanted ad. This way someone looking to tip the scales on a trade because their end has zero miles will be warded off. I'm pretty sure every car in my garage has mileage on it.
 
...for the same reason that a new car is more desirable than a used car.
 
Im assuming here, that 0 Miles = No chassis repair costs. For example, I took delivery of a brand new X2010 with no miles, did one lap, crashed, put on like 5 miles, went to get it repaired, 500000 credit cost.
 
Its traders actually having some value left in something in the game. Duping/birthday glitching etc means that there really is nothing valuable anymore... however standard cars that have 0 miles on them can't just be picked up easily in game.
 
There are threads detailing how useless chassis restore and engine restore are and how they have no impact on performance, therefore mileage really has no impact on performance.
 
But if the sole reason they use this game is to trade they might aswell brought a pack of cards?
 
So they can do an oil change and get more hp?
 
Most cars actually gain horsepower for the first 200 miles or so. Has anyone else noticed this?

As soon as you drive any 0 mile car it gives you the option to repair the chassis. When I first got the Buick Special I went 2 laps around High Speed Ring, no crashes and that option was there. It is for any car as soon as you hit the track.
 
@OP: Yeah, I'm such an idiot for wanting 0 mileage cars, how could I ever be so DUMB?! I can't believe how stupid I am.

Seriously though, just let us play the game how we want to play it, and don't complain about it. Please.

I know its stupid. I don't really care about mileage. The cars in this game are made to be driven and not just looked at. Once i get both Ferrari F1s i'm gonna rack up the mileage on them. :)

That's Engine break-in. It helps the parts in the engine 'settle', which therefore slightly improves engine power.

I didn't say the people were stupid did I? Merely the principle.
 
It is quite silly but let the fellas enjoy their game, that is just another aspect and may bring a little enjoyment. Personally I don't care if a car has 450,000 miles on it.
 
I bought two FGT's one in the used car lot at 1500ish miles, the maximum I got out of it was 891bhp. The second one I bought in the online dealership with 500miles on it. It is putting out 920ish bhp.

I never said you said I was stupid.

Why does it matter to you how I play (or don't play) a game that I own?

No, I was voicing my opinion on what seems a stupid activity..
 
Avoiding the question I see... :rolleyes:
I'm not avoiding the question, it doesn't matter to me, I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

Why does it matter to you about what I post on this forum?
 
Because I don't like other people calling the activities I do on my own game 'stupidity' when it doesn't even affect said people.

Well sorry if my thread has offended you, I didn't go out with the intention to offend anyone.

But a question to you...Why do you do it?
 
Why do I do what?

So you can see how far you've driven them (on premiums at least).

You Can't drive the Ferrari F1s in A-Spec, B-Spec or Online

Save your cash
