I apologize if discussing this breaks the AUP, but I've seen people trying to gameshare in the marketplace, so I guess it's cool.

1) If I want to share my stealth car with my friend, can I create an alternate account with a fake email address, can they access the billing info on my main account?
2) And afterwards, if I stop using that alternate account after I've shared it with four people, can I delete the profile on my PS3 and still be able to use my main account on other PS3s if I have to?
3) If I set up another master account with fake information, is there any way for Sony to track that back to my main PSN?
4) If I do set up another master account with fake info, will it be able to access my downloads from my normal master account?
 
Gamesharing breaks the rules of the PSN and is technically illegal so I think that you shouldn't do it.

Gamesharing works by you giving your account details to a friend, letting them login as you and download all the DLC content that you have. If you don't trust this friend with your billing information, then I would suggest you to change or remove your billing information just to be safe.
 
Well, it's just the stealth car, isn't it?
I don't have anything else downloaded other than a free NFS Shift DLC and the Special Edition Camaro.
Would that be very bad?
 
You could also be banned from the PSN for doing this. This could be either an account ban or a system ban, both are possible. Using any sort of fake info could also lead to a ban.
 
For number 1, you are saying that you want to make a fake account and then give the fake account to your friend?

If so, then you can do that but he won't be able to get the stealth cars as they are not tied to the fake account.

2. Yes you can also deactivate it from your system first to ensure it gets deleted.

3. Can't comment, I don't know what Sony are like.

4. No.
 
If you have already used the codes on your main account you'll have to give out those details I think, though having never done this I could be wrong.
 
OK, I might give it a shot once, put the stealth car up on the marketplace for trade. Give back to the community.
Or maybe I could do an online competition and give it out to the winner. 💡
 
If you give out the password to the secondary account then the guy won't be able to see anything from your main account. And after he uses the cars and gets them on his main, you could enter back into your accounts and change the passwords so only you know it again.
Works with call of duty map packs also.

I will be a guinea pig? I've been on this site since gt4 and have all other cars :)

Why can't you just put the car in share mode...does that not work with the stealths? I've never tried it.

I don't think that you can borrow stealth cars. It comes up with some message or something.
