Forza Horizon 3 Auction House Thread!

[HellOnWheels]

How is it that cars have buyouts in the millions where I can only choose a buyout in the hundreds of thousands? I'm looking to auction a '69 Nissan Fairlady Z with the Rocket Bunny conversion and the highest buyout I can set 230k.
It took around 250k to purchase the stock car and add the conversion.. how the hell is that fair? I also spent around 12 hours on a custom paint job for it. I was really looking forward to seeing what it would fetch in an auction, but I would be at a major loss if I sold it at that price.

Do I have to sell cars to build a higher reputation or something? Would a VIP membership change anything?

Won a m4 horizon edition for 402,000

 

[Big Goonz]

Very annoyed that my Impreza did very poorly lol, the guy got a bloody bargain

 

[Chebble]

I working for a Countach HE. I placed a bid on multiple cars, ranging from 400k-600k when I saw one with a starting bid of 300k that was ending that nobody had touched. I won that one. The others that I'd bid on got caught up in a bidding war and finished at around 800k. Never been so glad to get outbid on something haha.

In other news, a duplicate Huracan that I auctioned went for 400k, was expecting slightly more. Can't win them all though.

My venture in the Auction House today kicked off with this bargain

Then I grabbed some Horizon edition cars on the low. The Corvette did cost a pretty penny though!

 

[Populuxe]

I forgot to take a pic of it in the auction house, but I just won this Mini HE for the minimum 400k credits. So have a pic of it racing a train instead.

EDIT: I won the Mercedes HE in a wheelspin yesterday, so all I need now is the Countach and Metro and I'll have all the HEs out right now.

 

[Pebb]

Got myself the HE Viper. I think this was a petty good deal, as I always see people bidding over 1,000,000 Cr. for these.

I was able to win two Horizon Edition Viper's with the cheapest one costing 200,000 credits. While the other cost 486,000.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got it for 331,000 after two failed attempts for other ones

Was trying to get the 22b but kept going over 600,000 so I just won it in a spin now I think I have all current horizon editions

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Focus didn't sell but my duplicate horizon edition gt did for 774,000 which was more than what I expected for a stock horizon edition

 

[Brend]

I'm desperate for a decent priced Focus, they seem pretty rare.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Anyone have a Ferrari 500 Mondial that they don't want? I could use one. Stock or tuned doesn't matter. I just don't want to pay $1,000,000 for it.

 

[FosterG]

Paid 639 for the Benz today, not much left until the next round of HE's?

 

[Populuxe]

I picked these two up at auction tonight, thus completing the current crop of HE cars. I didn't even have to fight for the MG. I got it uncontested at base price. I also won a Viper HE in a wheelspin which I sold for just under $500k.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Selling duplicate corvette horizon edition and focus rs horizon edition both stock.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Both sold well
Focus was 435,000

Vette was 774,000

Now I need two more cars two sell so I can get the achievement.

 

[cbarbosa]

A very decent price for the M3, I presume... Considering most go for 1.000.000+

 

[VXR]

I bought an Xbox Falcon for a million credit buyout. I didn't have the online parking lot for a car meet, so I couldn't do the drag race. A million seemed to be as low as they were priced.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Offloaded an HE Viper I got from a wheelspin for 479k.

In turn I scored the HE Mini for 331k.

 

[Eunosthedeer]

Attempted to get a Warthog on 3 occasions but was out bided in the last second.

Was finally successful on attempt 4.

Also got meself an F Type Project 7 Horizon edition.

So all in all good job me

 

[AudiMan2011]

Group 2 is complete.

 

[cbarbosa]

Only bid, minimal price, done!

​

And the same for the Mini HE...

​

2 HE in 5 minutes for 400.000CR...

 

[ViscousTraction]

Haven't bought anything, but I managed to miss 2 FD auctions recently.

1 was during the dead of the night with 19 minutes left on the auction, "No one seems interested in it. Should be easy to swipe, right?" Nah. Due to my impeccable timing I manged to press "Buy out" probably the literal nanosecond after someone bought it...

The second time happened just a minute ago. I searched and one came up with 59 minutes left.
"This has got to be it."
I open the auction and attempt to buy it out as quick as I can.
"This auction has already ended"

...This leads me to my question; does the auction house update in real-time?
If I search for the car and leave the auction list open, will one eventually pop up or do I have to manually search for one every time?​

 

[FosterG]

picked up another classic Maserati (already have two) for 200k, I was shocked, it is getting sold soon as my game bug is gone.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Ended up selling my 2 S14 duplicates. Put them both up for $1,000,000cr. Both were sold in the span of 5 minutes.

 

[cbarbosa]

Guess I over paid for the Vette...

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Gonna try and sell my extra Xj220 what do you think it'll sell for?

 

[cbarbosa]

Another over priced HE...

 

[Populuxe]

It's kind of amazing how much the market has fallen on HE cars. They're barely getting more than the minimum start price these days.

 

[cbarbosa]

So, the last 2 HE...

The BRZ was a steal! They are selling a 1.000.000+! It's insane...

​

The Merc, only bid...

And a little bonus...

All HE cars - Done! ​

 

[ViscousTraction]

Finally, a Zonda that isn't the R. Still need the C12/S/S 7.3




In other news; the RX-7s are now being sold for $10,000,000 ​
