I've searched! Nothing came up.

I have about 190 cars at the moment and still loads I want, like all the premiums and all the race cars etc, and rare cars.

I have no interest at all in clogging up my garage with a load of slow cars I will never use just so I can say I've got all the cars.

And all this 'cars with 0 mileage' is totally lost on me I'm affraid.


I mean if they were real cars I'd understand.
 
I am not up for collecting them all either. I have no use for the standard cars as I like driving with the cockpit view. So my 69 GT40 will stay 0/0. Other than that I have plans of driving all of my premiums at least once (which I still need to get around to). The game has so many aspects to it though, it really caters to many gamers. So to each their own as long as they enjoy their time with it.
 
I only like having a lot of race cars so i get some variety while racing, every mX-5, Skyline and every color of the X2010 is just unnecessary

I think people only care about 0 miles and changes is because they get the car from like 100% stock (So they get to break the engine in, no mods or they just want it as a collectors item).
 
Well, people are different. Having every car's something extra to do in the game, and can put the credits earned from online racing and seasonal events to good use. I personally plan to do it for the collectors aspect, and I figure that they're in the game, why not get and drive them? I plan on doing a list of laptimes around the Nurburgring with every car once I've done it (I'll get back to you in 2015 :p)

If you want all cars with 0 miles however, you're wrong in the head.
 
I'm not going for every car

I only have 1 Skyline (because I won it, and it's the Carbon R), 1 NSX, etc, no double ups for me, no no noo, unless your talking about cars from Mopar
 
I have four classes of cars.

1. Cars I have won.
2. Racing cars.
3. Cars I want.
4. Stupid cars.

Some cars fit into more than 1 section.
I personally think everyone needs a Life van '72 to have some playtime.

I don't have this-
Mazda Miata R
Mazda Miata S
Mazda Miata RS
Mazda Miata 1.8
Mazda Miata 1.5
Mazda Miata X1
Mazda Miata RX4
Mazda Miata 1997
Mazda Miata 2000
Mazda Miata V6 Integralle
Mazda Miata Gallardo
Mazda Miata Pick Up
Mazda Miata Billy Kart
Mazda Miata Stretched Limo
 
10
I only have about 6 models to get to complete my collection, I'm not bothered about 0 miles though.

What models? Maybe i have them? And im not interested either.. i just have what strikes my fancy and nothing else.. but mind you my garage is pretty decently stacked with lots of great machinery

I would KILL for that lol.
Kind of on the same subject does anyone have an 03 odyssey or a 90something Accord (both honda)
Sorry I know this isn't a trade thread but I want the cars my family has in real life so i can give them 400 hp :dopey:

On subject: I only want the random cars, like the Rmed cappucino (0-60 in 3 years lol) Or say the furai

yeah i got them both.. i could trade you the Ody ASAP, but the Accord ill have to see if i can track down another one because my dad had one of those too and used to flash the lights at me every morning when he left for work.. so yeah that car has memories for me too and i dont quite want to give up the one i have haha
 
O holy crap a person with one wow i thought i would never get 1. weeeeeeeeeeeeell what with the psn problems and all can't really trade........................................ see when it comes back up?
 
I'm trying to collect all the cars... pretty boring. Up to 415 I think?

It's the collector in me, I cant fight it!
 
Thank heavens for the check tick so you know whats cars you've got!

Its little features like this that make GT5 the best game in the world....👍
 
Sort of. I own maybe 48 cars, and while I haven't sold a car, and I've only bought 4 cars myself. I won't go for every GT-R. I might have an R32, R33, and R34, and maybe a special model of each.
 
I started off thinking this, but last couple of days I've gone a bit mad and worked my collection up to 700ish. All the 'standard' cars are different (inasmuch as I don't buy anything that's already ticked) but there are a few duplicated Premiums, where there are options for tuning and race modification to consider.

Maybe I'll go off the idea once PSN comes back online and I can get back to seasonals/online racing.
 
As far as I'm concerned I have all the premium cars, if I want to drive one I'll just pick one up from the other side of the menu screen, money won't be a problem once I get the Red Bull car.
 
I think it's retarded to want to buy all of the cars in gt5. Just my opinion, but if you're not going to use the car what is the point in buying it? To burn credits? Okay, then why have ALL of the cars? It is evident that it would turn into a fruitless grind, especially without cheating, and in no scenario does the reward make the time invested to 'earn' (or cheat) your way to owning all the cars worthwhile. It's time spent not learning how to race well, or time spent not racing - either way, wasted time in my opinion.

But hey, I bought this game to race online. I buy cars for three reasons: 1.) To take on the task of tuning it to do well; 2.) To fit a race requirement; 3.) Because I like the car or the paint.
 
I will not be going after all the cars. I cannot grind anymore and I also cannot remote race that much so aside from running the dcc once or twice a week, I am earning no credits. 98% of my time in gt5 now is spent practicing and then racing in leagues.
 
Of course very few are going to buy all 1031 cars. I mean we got like 10 Skylines, 15 RX-7s and 150 Mazda Roadsters
 
I wasn't a collector either, but I kept getting to 20 million credits using only a few cars. Then I bought the 20 million dollar cars that I couldn't win. By then I had all the cars I would ever need to use in a race. But, because of the credit limit, I continued to do a few races and then buy cars. I'd buy all the European models, then American models and finally, the Hondas, Nissans and Toyotas. When the payouts for seasonals went up, I'd do a series and buy the entire UCD. Eventually, when I went to the UCD, there were mostly check marks. Ironically, that just made me want to cycle through the license tests to get a new list. Now I've got 1012 cars, with one stealth and no chromelines. I haven't bought all the NASCAR models, just one; and I've only got one of the Citroen batmobiles. Maybe I'll buy them just to complete the collection of premiums. Otherwise, collecting to me is simply a way of spending my GT5 monopoly money, and I hate to see that "You cannot have more than 20 million credits" message.
