I dont think it does anything but for when you get the nice cars like the Arta and Denso dirty they gotta be washed. Those are like the only cars I wash. It just shines them up real nice.......

Maybe you win 3 or 4 hp with a clean car, but i don't think that will make a difference.
It improve the car, period.
Heck, its like real life. You take a bath/ shower, yes?
You wash your own car dont you?
How more realistic can you get when you add an oil change and car wash to the fold.
I wash any car I race with and change the oil every time I get done with a particular car. Im just a clean fanatic and do the same on my own cars, just not so zealously.
I always wash cars and change oil after I do a series, but I tend to forget if I've just been mucking about in 'Run & Settings' or just done a one-off race.
I'll always change the oil just before a series with a car as well - I'm probably doing a lot of unnecessary oil changes, but hey, there's over 4 million credits in there...
Ya I noticed that too but I am going to try not washing my rally cars (they would be best for this experiment I think) and I will tell ya guys if it does get dirty or not.
Hmm, when I was playing my old files, I had a Red Chameloen(spelling?) paint Tuscan. I drove around in the dirt a bit much, and the car turned black! Until I washed it...

I haven't noticed any cars getting really dirty, but it does make them a bit more shiny. It can certainly make a difference to the colours on some TVR's.
No kidding. 50 Cr is chump change after you get a couple decent cars and start winning races. And besides, everyone knows that a clean car is luckier than a dirty car.
about the oil change:
change the oil when you first buy the car, and let it go till the light comes on, then change it again and you get more power than before. the light usually goes on at about 188 miles...
I always see the oil change light when I'm in the middle of a long series such as Gran Turismo All Stars (pro)
by the way chris...mad props on adding Half Baked to your sig...that movie has it all
A fellow smoker i see or at least i'm guessing... its not word for word... i copyed this from my icq info and the real lines were too long so i cut out some about the popcorn he wanted and stuff like that
Former fellow smoker, I used to have it word for word in my AIM info... I hate it when Comedy Central ruins that movie...they always bleep out the good stuff, and change ***** to pudding!!!!!
