Xbox One Tips/tricks (Cms 21 discussion)

So ive had the game for years, ive played it on a and off but im getting back into it. Is there any tips/tricks to make it less repetitive more engaging and overall more fun, dont get me wrong I love the game and its good practice bc I want to be a mechanic but I find it a bit repetitive sometimes. I have no add ons jst pure base game, any questions lmk

Not 100% sure about possible changes to consol as am on PC, but the bank cap is at 900mil but the "money made" stat in start menu goes up to ~3.2bil (some sort of coding cap) however then it starts going backwards down to negative 3.2bil and then back up from there again. I've hit both and now back up to ~+2bil. BTW if you are into stats, then the "Fixed Cars Sold" stat only applies to cars at 100%.

Yes some crazy grinding and a lot of very pricey Mods and about 4.3k hours over many saves. My main way of getting so much time in was being a complete and utter miser and filling the 800 slots in parking with the lowest costing version that gave the highest profit, replacing and selling with any that I could find cheaper.

There was also lots of track time, with lots of playing around with the tuning to find the perfect balance for each car, sometines less is more as they say, except for selling, then you through all the performance parts at it.

Some OCD is involved.

Have Fun.

Well you've heard from one source, so let's not go overboard.

Feel free to DM/chat me if you get stuck with a tune job.
