I've just kind of realised this, but if you don't duplicate, then the 20 million cars really are the "special" cars of the game.

330 P4 Race Car '67
Mark IV Race Car '67
XJ13 Race Car '66
Miura P400 Bertone Prototype CN.0706 '67
GIULIA TZ2 carrozzata da ZAGATO CN.AR750106 '65

They all look amazing and when you buy them, you really have to choose carefully, you can't just buy buy buy, you have to wait, save up, and buying one of those really means something in the game.

I think that's why it's important to have the 20 million credit limit.
 
Will you please come up with a better reason then "Because if you don't dupe, they're special."? It doesn't change the fact that it's incredibly aggravating and completely unnecessary, the only good thing from it is that it guarantee the Penniless trophy, which even then, only happens once.
 
I have all of them. I guess the people I got them from were dupes, but I traded fair and square.

Then you can't even change the oil on the car once you buy it, because you're broke. Yeah, that really means something.
 
2 of them are prize cars and if you are saying everyone should grind to $20mm 3 times than you are in for a long and painful experience but if that is the way you want to play the game whatever. It's not the way most are going to play it.

Just wondering have you actually played any of the other GT games to realize there is a serious issue with the credit system?
 
It's become apparent that Kaz and Co. don't support capitalism in GT5.

It shouldn't be like that. GT4 didn't have a limit (or at least if there was a limit, was extremely high. My GT4 save is currently sitting on 32 million cr. unspent). So why is GT5 going backwards? Shouldn't this be a next-gen game, loaded with many great features? I like the enjoyment of owning all those cars, but when you impose a limit where you can only can come up with enough for one those, and then end broke from purchasing one because you can only make that much money, really turns it into nothing more long, drawn-out, affair that does nothing but make me want to play the game less because I feel like I'm never going to get that car at the rate I'm going. I can't even afford new tires for it, what the hell?

Assuming, of course, if there was no credit limit, I'd be sitting on a boat load of cr., and duping wouldn't be that much of incentive, because I'd have an option to buy a couple of those cars, with extra left over for more.
 
Miura is 15 million, Alfa is 10 million.

Alfa and Jaguar are won in A-Spec and B-Spec races.

Ferrari can be won with Level 21 ticket.

The Lambo and Ford, unless bought, can only be won with a 1000 ticket, so they would be the hardest to obtain.
 
This thread is a pile of wood, paper, and dynamite soaked in gasoline and waiting for a match.

Anyway, though, a credit limit is a bad, bad, bad idea. I want to be able to keep everything I earn.
 
I have to disagree as well. I have all of them, didnt pay for a single one, and they all just plain suck and are on my "never drive" list because they are too slow to be fun.
 
Ahm, the credit limit has nothing to do with the fact that you cant "just buy, buy, buy".

You still need 10m plus. What does it matter that you do it in steps, or in a realistic way. I've been to 20m once. Took me days and days to convince myself to buy a 20m car. I kept buying ~1m cars and rebuilding my fortune.

Now if I had worked my way to 40m, I'd buy a 20m car no problem, because I wouldn't be living in fear of a good car popping up immediately after, and having absolutely no money to spend on it.
 
Why I think you're wrong: any prize money that you earn that puts you above $20mil gets deleted never to be seen again. With the seasonal events paying what they usually do it sucks to not get every penny earned.
 
you can buy send to 2nd account save, next day buy send to 2nd account save buy, next day buy. see you can. then send them back to 1st account save option!

thank you! so you don't spend 1 penny
 
Just leave some B-Spec remote racing money unclaimed, then claim it once you've bought the car. Now you can oil change it and probably mod it too.
 
The limit should be 25 Million Cr. So you would really have to plan to get the penniless trophy. But this is really petty matter.
 
There is no limit. Why do people think their is a limit. You get too 20 Million, buy a car, you no longer have 20 million. Why would you want more than 20 million when there is no car worth more than 20 million, so I dont understand why you want more; got all the 20 million cars? Then there is no reason to worry about the limit. Have all the cars? you dont need 20 million credits anyway now. I cant see how you would get too 20 million in the game before a car in the UCD appears that you need or want. If you reach the cap quickly, then you are grinding too much !! :sly:

Let me make it clear, I dont understand the reason for the cap, (never got too 20 mill myself) in the sense, i dont think it should be there either, however, I dont see how it impacts the game in anyway, not enough to protest about.

Firstly, there is no reason for a 20 million credit cap.

Secondly, it creates a very real and obvious problem when it comes to collecting certain cars. You need to wait for the horribly designed UCD to display the car you want. When you want a car that approaches the credit cap, you're basically forced to not spend any money until the used car shows up. Then on top of that, you can't save up for the pointless maintenance you have to do on the car. The latter isn't as much of an issue as getting the car, but I'd like to stay as far away from something like A-Spec as possible. Also consider that even if only one rare car shows up at once, there is no guarantee that a second rare car won't show up while you're recovering from spending ~20,000,000. It's simply poor design at its best, the hallmark of A-Spec.

The 20,000,000 cars in the dealership aren't going anywhere, so the 20,000,000 cap isn't all that relevant in their case (however, there is zero reason to have the cap, so I'm still against it by virtue of its absolute uselessness), but the 2J, GT40, 2D, and maybe some other cars I don't remember would certainly be a nuisance to get if someone doesn't luck out with the UCD and/or doesn't have all the dealership cars they want.

The limit makes the choice very difficult. Some are prizes so that helps, but after all the time spent getting right on the edge of 20M it will be hard to part with ALL of it at one time! Decisions, decisions.....
 
no way this thing that they have done is horrible..
first 20m top dollar u can have and then now no trading its all bull ...
version 1.1 better be coming with level 60 A spec and alot more levels with trading back on

yeah...Those VIRTUAL cars are amazing...

Yes actually. Obviously you've never tried any sort of computer modeling.

In the same way a photo of a model is amazing, so are the virtual representations of the cars. Even more so that you can hear the sound and get a feel for what they may feel like.

Fail troll is fail.
 
There is nothing beneficial or good about a 20 million dollar limit. You should not be able to go completely broke after purchasing a car and instead should be able to purchase other tuning parts and cars. If there a limit were absolutely necessary, setting it at 100 million would be a nice round number. That all being said, considering how grueling it is to accrue large sums of money in this game, I have not yet had an issue with the 20 million dollar limit. With a garage of 935 cars and a completion percentage of 99% I've never had more than a total of 7 million dollars.
