A bunch of Disc 1 Ferraris, Shelby Daytona Coupe and the rest of the Exclusive Taste lineup.
 
I went a bit overboard with purchasing cars (offline) but here's what I ended up with... lol

'96 Ferrari F50 GT (This car is a beast!)
'57 Ferrari 250 California
'07 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione
'99 Shelby Series 1 (A600 upgrades complete)
'02 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (S700 upgrades complete)
'09 Lotus 2-Eleven (R3/800 upgrades complete)
'06 Lotus Exige Cup 240
'11 RUF Rt 12 R
 
I bought the 1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio Verde
and the Fiero

I saw a couple of Sgts in Germany with the Quadrifoglio when I was in Germany. Really slick looking cars. Was seriously considering getting one myself at the time. But I knew when I got out when I came back to the Bronx ... well check the Avatar :(

You had a very good day!
 
I got a DLC code, so...:p

Ford F150 Raptor (I see myself having lots of fun with this beast, looks great in white/black with the "street" aero)
Pontiac Fiero (The Fiero has always been a guilty pleaure of mine, looks great with the Street aero as well.)
Alfa Romeo Spider (Not my favorite Alfa by a long shot, but it's an Alfa that only cost 5,000 so there is no reason to not buy it :lol:)
Ford Escort RS1800 (Only drove it for a few minutes and already love it.)

Will try to get some pics tomorrow, I need some of that sleep stuff.
 
All the new Dec. DLC cars!(black Jettas for now) About 2.5 mil in total.
 
Just trying to learn to completely control oversteer with mu wheel since the patch so been using an MX-5 Superlight which I bought today. Progressing to an M3 of some sort which ill buy later, any suggestions which one?

lol... Most of these cars have been long overdue for me. I've had the in-game credits to purchase these cars for quite some time now and planned on trying to catch some good deals in the auction house but I still have no access. I've been wrongfully banned for almost a month now (link to explanation below) and got tired of waiting on T10 to remove the ban, so I decided to have a little shopping spree. There are a few more cars that I want to purchase but they'll have to wait a bit.

2nd post in link below...

Cerbera Speed 12, Lambo Diablo GTR, Gallardo (#2), 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO (#2). :) Waiting for the DLC now.

Just picked up an '03 Dodge Viper Competition Coupe for a R2[875] Dodge Viper race. I chose this car because it was the cheapest and had the lowest P.I. amongst the other cars within that race. This car from the dealership starts off as a R3[724] car and I intended on modifying it to the limit of the R2 class. Initially I wasn't able to to get close to 875 then I decided to add a twin turbo kit to the car. That helped out as well but I still wasn't close enough. So then I decided to do something I've never done before (even in previous Forza series) and that was an awd conversion to a Viper. After the awd conversion, twin turbos, and a few other supporting modifications I ended up at 979 HP/951 LB-FT, while tipping the scale at 3,222 LBS. This made the car a full blown R2[875] and surprisingly the car actually handles pretty well without any tuning.
 
I just bought the December dlc pack. So far from the pack i have bought the Rx8 R3 and the Escort. Those two cars are amazing. The rx8 is in B class while the escort is in c, both of them feel perfect for those classes.

I have a race with a friend coming up. Its C class on Kaido. My escort vs his miata.. I just did a practice run on kaido with my escort and man that thing haaaauls. 1800lbs, 150hp.. That miata is not going to stand a chance.
 
I've been gunning for that Ferrari Collector achievement, so off to the Auction House I went: -

[A600] F430 - 20000
[C425] 365GTB/4 - 96000
[S700] 599GTB - 165500
[S700] F50 - 253000
[R3800] #89 F430GT - ~596000

I haven't purchased any cars from the auction house in awhile but man you got some pretty good deals. 👍
 
Thanks. That's what I get for being forced to watch my brother endlessly scour the market on FIFA 12 UT. The 599GTO/F430GT weren't buyouts either.

And as of this post, I can add a [B500] Dino for ~13000. Unfortunately, the only cars left are 1000000+, whose auctions are either already over the list price, or start stupidly low and end up over the list price anyway.
 
I bought a Dino and upgraded it to the top of S-class. It's strangely useless, posting inferior acceleration, top speed, and lateral grip levels to other similar S-class cars (and yes, I kept it RWD)
 
Delighted that the AMC Javelin made it in - I wasted no time in buying and enjoying one! 👍

You should try getting together with some extremely trustworthy friends to attain the Ferrari collector achievement. A few buddies of mine and I got together and split the collection of cars evenly. This saved us a lot of time and in-game credits. I'm pretty sure the auction house market is different now but everyone was able to sell the cars they didn't want to keep, for profit in the auction house.
 
Camaro Iroc-Z. LS9, Twin-Turbo, Fully Tuned, 976 bhp. Won an oval race against Veyrons and SSc Aeros.

Thanks for the tip, but you've made the assumption that I have [trustworthy] friends!

I got the final couple of cars on quick buyouts, like the 599XX for 1.485m. However, I don't need the credits (Rivals mode really does print money) so I'll let them gather dust and increase my garage size.

Although that does not mean the auction house is devoid of bargains, like the fully upgraded LFA I picked up last night for under 70000!
