Thank you Billy Madison, after reading all these solutions to Gran Turismo 6 money glitch - you have now made the whole forum dumber.
Had lighten it up a bit this is getting out of hand. I had been on this tuning project but now with the availabiltiy of some cars I have restructured my project. Im sure all of you care so much. (lol)

Looks like it's been fixed. No Vision GT with 1.00 - Although Community & Quick Match have been added to 1.00.

Who said we ever needed the v1.01 code for this "theoretical" fix to function? When we buy a vehicle in the current v1.01, the purchase is recorded into our save game. So when we delete v1.01, the record of the purchase is read in the save game by the v1.00 code. This is where the null occurs. As I have said earlier, with this new "theoretical" v1.01 code, if the said vehicles were purchased, the record would be written onto the save game, thus, if the save game was reverted and accessed on a v1.00 "base code", it would be recognized as vehicles already existing within the "base code".

Vision GT was never a part of v1.00. It is included in the v1.01.

Okay guys, aside from the moralities, I'm completely dumbfounded on how to get more than $20million in the game. I already did the glitch. I'm going to start off from the end at the IGN video where I have $20million already with a bunch of M4 coupes. This is what I understand:
Delete 'Game Data' back to version 1.00
Save 'Saved Data' to a USB drive (containing 1.00, we'll call it 'Saved Data 1.00',)
Patch to 1.01 - At this point, this also becomes 'Saved Data 1.01'
Restore 'Saved Data 1.00' from USB drive
So, do I just need 'Game Data 1.01' with 'Saved Data 1.00' in order to sell off the M4's and acquire more than $20million?
Let me know guys. Thanks!

I'm out of patience so this is where I tap-out.
I'm glad I went into engineering and not teaching... I'd strangle a thick student in my first year.
First of all, stick with engineering. Secondly, in your engineering career, you must learn some patience when another engineer suggests a concept or design structure that has the potential to function in an entirely unorthodox method. Lastly, unless you are have a PhD, you will not be instructing this post-graduate student.

I think most of us got it from the get go.
From a programming standpoint, since they left the loophole so wide open in 1.00 moving forward every new car in the game would need a "second version" of sorts. In other words to be recognized in 1.00 as a Honda Civic (or cheap random car) and as the correct car in 1.01 and any patch thereafter. That's no small bit of coding, basically re-writing all of the buy sell code for the game. Truly a gigantic F-up on their part.
Locking the savegame version is the only fix that makes sense.
Now let's all relax and enjoy our millions!

haha... sure I have plenty of patience for novel ideas that are correct and efficient. It's the pointlessly complicated and nonsensical ones that blow snow up my skirt.
at this point @cgguy has the right idea 👍

I'll try one more time. The data in the gamesave is probably something like a table or some variable structure that lists the cars you have and specific things that the game needs to keep track of such as mileage, wear, oil condition etc. It most likely does not have purchase price or sell price. That is probably kept in the game data. If you were to add a purchase price to the "table" one of two things will happen when you revert to v1.0: 1. the game crashes because it's not expecting the extra variable(s), or 2. it just ignores it since it was never programmed to look for it. It is highly unlikely that the gamesave runs arbitrary code.

You can re-download all the Anniversary Cars through Account management if you ever need to.
because it's simply not true. When you buy the car in a new patch it simply needs to make it unauthorized for previous versions of the game. The same as when you do the glitch you lose access to the 25th anniversary cars until you download it again. Just set that flag.
They could also in the new version check to see if a 20 million dollar sale was made in 1.00, if it was then they could reverse the sale and remove all of the cars purchased with the funds.
They can and will fix the glitch, it's only a matter of time. You will not be able to go to version 1.01 once the new version that fixes the glitch comes out, thus problem solved. I don't think they will go to the trouble of removing funds or cars, I think they will just fix the glitch with the next update and fire a few people.
then all they need to do in the next update is set the GT vision cars to be unable to be sold, like the anniversary edition cars. Then when you try and sell it in 1.00 it wont allow you too. In 1.03 or whatever it is they can have new code that allows the sale to go through. boom problem fixed. They also have another flag for rights access to a car, they can make it appear to 1.00 that you do not have right to the car. Same as when you redownload 1.01 you don't have rights access to the anniversary cars until you redownload them.

I'm not a programmer nor have full understanding about the subject, but I don't think changing the DLC car's in the savedata would do anything. Even if you mark the DLC cars as a Honda Civic, the 1.00 game disc is still only going to read the car for what it actually is, it's what it's programmed to do and like mentioned, nothing but time travel will change that.
We used to be able to change all sorts of properties of a car in GT5 through hybriding; the sound, chassis, bodyshell, even the name, but PD stopped GT5 from reading the savedata and instead relied on the gamedata to revert all adjusted cars back to stock form. It will no doubt be the same in GT6.
My thoughts are that you can try to fool v1.00 into seeing a Honda, but there is something there in the code that still recognises what the car should be, and this is what the game searches for. As the DLC cars technically don't exist, we end up in this situation where you have a placeholder car or no car at all, and the 333m credits (probably to do with maximum/default value). That's my understanding anyway and probably wrong in some, if not all places.

Folks I was totally surprised when I saw this glitch was even posted as a new entry in the Official PlayStation Magazine:
http://www.officialplaystationmagaz...ney-cheat-earn-20-million-credits-in-minutes/
Is... this... normal? I mean.. at first I was thinking this might end in some banned accounts or some of us loosing some cars but... what I didn't expect at all was an official blog sharing a How-To guide for this glitch!

Not quite my friend. Since you talk about a future update, and the glitch operates in the past, locking savefiles to certain patch numbers is the only way to go.
To get it clear: you talk about a restriction imposed in an update, to not be able to sell vision GT cars. Deleting that update would render that effect gone.
