That's odd.. you should have at least received one. Same happened to me and I received the very last car I sent to the master acct.
 
Still works for me. Try sending one at a time. PD may have put a limit on gift sending, which I am guessing, is server side.

Just got a 908. :)
 
These poor decisions by PD can be irritating. The whole gift thing happened while I was away from the PS3.

However, if n people were to get together and simultaneously use the gift feature to generate n cars, then gift n-1 of those cars to 1 person, then switch off the person who receives the cars each day/week/whenever, the limit could be easily bypassed. Not only that, but the number of cars a person would receive could be huge (n cars per day, a theoretical maximum of 100 per day on PSN).

Now whether anyone will go through with this or not...
 
Just gifted myself 2 kubels...only one came through, so I accepted that gift in my main account then went back to the bday account to see if I. Could gift one at a time by going to main account each time....no luck..

what exactly do you mean one at a time? 1 time from 1 account? from what I read you can only do it once per fake account made.

No, I meant gift one car. Go back to your main. Accept that single gift. Park in garage. Go back to your sub. Rinse and repeat.

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work. Just tested it. Maybe it is 1 gift per day now. It just erased another 908 I won. Sort of lame if PD put a stop to it. They are virtual cars that don't cost real money. They should just let people play how they want too.

yeah it is lame. hopefully someone can find another loophole. I'm still waiting for the hackers to have a 100% save someday. Ill just keep my fingers crossed on that one lol

I am trying something else now. lol

*EDIT* Ok, I created another account and my second car was a 908 (what are the chances? lmao). I deleted the first car and never gifted it. I am going to try gifting it to my main to see what happens. If this doesn't work, I am guessing PD has limited the receiving of gifts to 1 per day. Hopefully not though as that would be ridiculous as well. Of course, having to race a Yaris is in the game so I won't put anything past PD. haha

I will report back if it works.

*EDIT 2* Ok, gifting this time is not even an option. Not sure why that is. I will hold onto the account until midnight PST and try again then. Maybe it will allow another gift for the day.

If anyone can give me one, i can give lots of cars in return.

I have lots of C9's, R89's, all the '67 cars and many many more

Please PM soon
 
Well, I got it to work on the next account I created.

It originally would not let me gift any cars, The "Give to Friend" was greyed out, which is wierd considering I have all parental consent settings set to "None" (or is it "off"?).

Anyways, what I did was go to my Community page and select my main's name. I then chose to "Send Gifts --> Garage". I selected the new 908 I had and sent it right over. Showed up on my main's gift list no problem. Accepted it and parked it in the garage.

I am going to try gifting another car now to see what happens. I will report back if it works or not.
 
So the limit certainly looks like one only...after gifting the 2 kubels and only getting one, then trying to just gift another one at a time with no luck, I decided to delete the gave save a 3rd time, get my kubel...sell it for 73k on the dummy account then buy a toyota vitz for 14k and drop about 65k on performance parts to use in vitz specific race on main account...I'll just wait a day to gift it...but I did buy a 9k hyundai and gifted to my main account...it was lost too, so whatever pd did to fix this doesn't just look for more than one of the same car!

If you have more than one i would be willing to take it :)
 
Up for trade:

Ford Mark IV Race Car 67 (x2)
Lamborghini Miura P400 67 (x2)
Nascar Cars (x3)
Chaparral 2D Race Car 67 (x3)
Bugatti Veyron 09

I want a F1 car, the F40 or the Enzo. Maybe others, let me know.
 
does this birthday glitch still work and how long does it take to do? I'm trying to see if its worth making another account just for this. I heard you can only gift one car per day though, if thats true, then this glitch isn't worth the trouble.

I am going to use one for League play more tha likely and the other for practice. If I get another one I will let you know. :)

The 908 is one of my favorite cars so I am sure I will get another. lol

It tales about 5 min to set up an account.

It appears that you can only gift one car per day, HOWEVER, you don't have to gift the car you get. You can back out of GT5, delete your save, and try again until you get the car you want. So, if you don't mind the time it takes to back out, delete, restart, etc.. until you get the car you want than it is most definitely worth it.

Yeah, it appears to be one per account per day.

I will know for sure in a few min.
 
Poor design choice on their part. *Legit* people trading are going to just lose cars and maybe not even realize it because the warning is gone and the car just poofs.

Yeah, it is silly.

I don't plan to trade any of the cars I get from here. I am only using it to get my favorite race cars. I'd rather start driving them and having fun now rather than waiting weeks/months. My work/family life does not allow for too much "grinding".
 
Ok, I just gifted myself a car the next day and it didn't go through either. So, I have no idea what is going on.
 
It could be same day on server side if its in different time zone.

I thought that too, however, if that were the case than I would still be able to delete my saves and keep getting gift cars on my sub-account. At 12am on my console clock I lost that ability because the day clicked over.

Birthday gifts are bound to your time zone which is set on ps3. You can use it to get back to your birthday if its not too late. :sly:
I could be wrong about gifts sending though, it was just an idea.

I think developers are bit angry now. Because the game took so much time to develop and it turned out it has such major flaw which spoils the game. These fancy cars are supposed to be a mark of big acomplishment but instead anyone could get them for nothing and in enormous quantities.
Some said that it wasn't cheating or they don't have time to get something. Obviously the game design wasn't meant for b-day gift abuse.
I used this flaw myself, however I think if you have to cheat in game than probably that game is just not for you. ;)
