Do seasonal events and grab the 20 points car each week, then sell them on the auction house after some time has passed (a week to a month) so that they reach the maximum price of 20 mil.

I don't remember what are some car options in the beginning, but i do know that you can complete the Horizon Origins story to unlock one of the best S1 cars in the entire game.

Playing the Auction House is your only good way of making big bucks. Buy cars with Forzathon points, sell them for credits. Win exclusive cars, sell them. If you're late to the game, it's going to be difficult, as you don't have rare cars and you would want to wait until they come out again.

There are no cars better than others. If you play single player, the A.I adjusts their cars accordingly. Just drive what you like. There is no restrictions.

I would prioritize seasonal events, as they are time sensitive and offer exclusive rewards, and then work on the campaign and accolades

Just play the game! What do you need loads of money for? Did you buy a car racing game to sit in the auction house 24/7?

What BMW in particular? If it's a rare BMW like the M3 GTS, the i4 or iX, it will be hard to get. Remember that you're not the only one that's looking for it. You have to be very fast. Learn the buttons to insta-buy it and spam it as fast as you can.

Well, to get money it is easier to hold auctions, now to your question about cars, in the store look for one that is fast and that is comfortable for you to drive, with the time I have had, I realize that the physics of the game make The car's center of gravity influences handling. (My favorite at the moment is a Lamborghini, I don't remember the model, I apologize)

Yeah, you have to keep trying. It's not impossible to get. Just make sure to buy it. Don't bid. Be quick and patient and you will get it.

boston, 1 you dont need to buy cars, so basically you dont need cash... BUT each time you teleport you spend cash

so there is two things you should focus first.... get the 50 bonus board with a thunder icon (teleport) and the house "buena vista"(1.5m) once done you ll can teleport for free everywhere you already drive.

the most value car is the mosler MT900S, cost 300k and can deal with everything on the game, even if not your futur love, the best first purchase for sure.

if you are a player running all the dailies you ll dont need one car but tons of cars, luckly this game is not a grind game, at each level BAM a wheelspin, and at a moment you ll get tons of double of a car you already own.... focus the "accolades" in campain tab, example, in "welcome to mexico" you have "icebreaker" you run one forzathon stage 1 and BAM one car and 250 accolades.... so just drive everyhwere and stop at each danger/speed trap/speed zone and get the stars...

for the festival daily/monthly, you want 50 points per week, like this the car at 160 points you re sure to get it cause cost 160 points (in fact you could aim for 40 points per week at the two cars of the week cost 20 and 40) if you dont own a car for a specific daily, pick the less expensive and with the tunes of our brainmates, you ll win easy....

and that push me to the last tips, when you have to buy a car, before the car dealer, check the auction cause there is some dumb ppl trying to sell a car who cost 1.5m at dealer car and they try at 2.5m..... but there is also smart ppl selling a car 600k unstead of 1.5m at the car dealer.

I would recommand to not buy cars at start, you will win a lot of them.
- 1st to do is get the 50 fast travel boards and buy the house to teleport anywhere.
- Do solo to get barn finds -> XJR & F40
- Do V10 Story to get free Jesko
- Buy Diablo SV (174k), spend skill points -> GTR (insane S car)
- Buy Castle at 5000k to get a free wheelspin everyday.

Some cars are just way better for a class than others, the wider the class the more this imbalance will be, like this week's events. Regardless, cars match to what you're driving in single player, you've got your difficulty control slider, and doesn't really matter what you end up racing against the AI are just wearing car skins since they don't actually reflect the performance of what they drive. This might have changed in recent years but for the most part I'd say this is still true.

So pick what you think looks cool, bring it up to 400/500/600/700/800/900 so you'd least have a baseline for the class if you want to do the weekly. Also tune the cars, at the very least almost every car needs their gear ratios tuned when upgrading, but every car should also have their suspensions tuned to match the new weight / distribution.
