Hi i have a question but have benn unable to find it elsewhere on the site.
I have finally hit the max credit amount and now am looking for a way to get the best reward for buying and selling cars ( ie building up a reserve of cars to sell at a later time.)
which car holds the best option for its purchase price to re sale price, and is easy to obtain ?? ( without invites or waiting for it in the legendary list ).
 
It varies a heck of a lot. The majority of cars sell for less than half of their original value, so I can't say I'd recommend this as a viable strategy. If anything it'd make sense to have multiple cars since you can only sell 1 of each model per day. If not, blow all your money on multiples of the most expensive thing currently in the legend dealer.
 
When selling, watch out for the variation of price, on an expensive cars you may have more than 1 million credits between top and lowest prices.

Most of the time you'll get between 1/3rd and 1/2nd of the price you paid the car.

Some cars saw big increases in price since launch but now everything seems stable.
 
There isn't a real great way to do this. Back when the self-driving Abarth Daytona trick was a thing, a few of us did this with the McLaren F1 race car (which was in the legend dealership at the time for ~$15 million). You could immediately sell it for ~$10 million. The issue was, the game only lets you sell 1 copy of the car each day and the value went down dramatically. It was still a decent way to build a reserve of funds.

If I had the max credits problem, I would probably buy the most expensive legendary cars each time they appear. Then when you need more credits, sell whichever one(s) have the highest resale value. I've seen the $20mil cars resell for $13mil or so, but other times, they're $10mil or less.
 
Honestly, I think the best value is pretty much any car you get for free that you don't want for whatever reason. Could be that you already have it, or the prize car is in a color you don't like. I'd also say it depends on what you'd want to get out of the car itself, versus the credits it'd net you if you sold it. In this regard, I've bought a Ferrari FXXK but I also won one - and in the same color, too. Because the FXXK is an invite-only car, I think I'll just keep both. Similarly, I recall having two of the same SF19 model, but what's ~500k for selling the spare compared to a very typical 1m that I win for getting silver-tier times for the online time trials?

Honestly, it really depends on your in-game budget. I'm fine just buying one unit for most vehicles, as opposed to the people who do stuff like make special races via buying a ton of SF19s or something. In the meantime, I don't even grind - I only even consider re-doing a World Circuits event I've already cleared when it's featured in a set of Weekly Challenges.
