GT6 separate PSN IDs, saving and redeeming

I've only ever had one PSN ID on my playstation (and have PS+ on it) but I thought of creating an additional primary ID to use for GT online as GTP_xxxx, I think this is a fairly common situation here and I was wondering how this impacts:

- PS+ (I think there is no way to get automatic save backups of the other ID?)
- anniversary cars (are they going to be only on the account I redeem them from, say the main one, or are they going to be in both?

if anybody has any info it'd be great, I think I can work around the lack of PS+ backup saves by manually saving to a USB key (although that's more annoying than it being automatic of course) but if the anniversary cars can be used only in one PSN ID it would not be very good :(

The saves are tied to your original account reportedly. From what I've heard, if you try to load a save under a different PS3 Profile, it automatically overwrites the save with a new, blank one.

I have no idea about the DLC. Since it has to be redeemed in-game I would assume you wouldn't get it, but that could be something someone could test.
 
I can confirm DLC Anni cars are available on other accounts after installed on the one you bought them with. 👍
 
i bought a million in the store but it can only be used with that account, its not downloaded, its activated through a validation in-game so i managed to mod it with BFSD, changing the account ID and PSID but now when trying to go online or even the news feed i get an error saying "cant go further until you log in to PSN" and its kinda weird because i AM signed in... changed everything EXACTLY to my main account's Id's and stuff but dont know why this happened. there's no trace of the other user and account anywhere...

I wouldn't mess with it too much. GT6 barely came out, the modding community hasn't even broke open the save, messing about with it is quite a risk, nobody knows what safety or security features GT6 has for its saves. Layers of encoding or protection, idk im not a modder, but I would rather wait until someone professional has modded it and validated that it is safe to do so before proceeding it any further.
