I never sell cars unless i have doubles or im guaranteed not to use it in future races.
You never know you might need these cars to compete in certain leagues etc.

When cars begin to rack up the miles they begin to loose power due to engine wear

I would like to be able to tweak my boost on turbo ... then have my engine blow up - and having like Intercooler / Water spray allows me to up boost more... but maybe next time
Don't forget to change your oil too lol - especially on used cars! I had a mustang SVT in Gt3 and the more I drove that the less and less the power got, especially when I rarely changed the oil and kept doing high speed runs (hitting the limiter in final gear) lol.

i have turned the auto save off but
when you buy a car you gotta save, and you cant drive the car unless you save it to the mem card - BITCH!!
yeh this is going to be annoying - I used to love just loading up Gt3 and testing all the cars out then switching it off so it doesn't save. If you get another memory card... can you make a copy of the game file onto the other card? then just piss about and reload the old copy?
