Forza Horizon 3 Auction House Thread!

I think this question probably belongs here, if you're outbid, can you only get your money back after the auction is up? Annoying having 5million Cr tied up for the next 18 hours.

That's correct :/

 

[deadbob777]

Well that sucks

 

[NLxAROSA]

I think they do that on purpose (to prevent spamming?) I guess. Most annoying is that you have to collect your credits manually instead of it just refunding them automatically. In general I would suggest not bidding on anything that's not in the 2 minute or less range unless you're buying out. Your chances to win a bid that still has 18 hours to go are very, very slim.

Bought out a McLaren 570S for 123,000CR. Doesn't sound great, but all the other ones I tried bidding on went crazy, some higher than what I paid... so it's was nice to be guaranteed one for that price.

 

[yabiggoose]

Won a GTR HE for 607,000.

Pleased with that.

 

[JvM]

Got the HE GT finally, 900k or so I think.

And then bid on two HE Huracans and won them both, oops. Oh well.

 

[Populuxe]

I'm getting closer to having all the currently available HE cars. I got this last night. Now I only need the GT and the GT-R.

 

[cbarbosa]

Now this was a steal in AH!! 500.000CR!

Yeah, I had the exact same with the same car. And there was this guy thinking he was going to sneak by and get the bargain of the century for the start bid of 20-something thousand. He would bid on all of them and rarely bid again once someone (inevitably) outbid him. Though I must say, his dedication to his cause was shamefully extensive.

 

[laserviper]

scored the HE camaro earlier for a single bid of 200k. Usually see them 3 times higher than that

That is a good deal, I just got an HE M4 for 244k! Really surprised by that.

To this point I do not have the Viper, Brz or Jaguar, the Viper is the only one left that I want, I won the others with wheel spins. I just won the Camaro in a spin. Going back to try and bid on a Viper.....again.

Decided to sell my E36 HE a few days ago and was on the auction block for 12 hours. Came back afterwards and noticed that it'd sold for $950,000

Good enough for me 👍

Interesting to browse some of the others in the rare cars section. Some of them are selling for millions!

 

[deadbob777]

I've been selling most of my HE cars, most of them are just cars I dislike, and if I don't like it, that means more than it's skill bonus lol.

 

[ErnstJ]

Saw them going for over 1 million. Happy with this price .

 

[Populuxe]

My HE collection keeps growing. I got the GT HE today. I paid a pretty hefty price for it, but that's what credits are for. Just need the GT-R HE and I'll have all currently available HE cars.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Bagged 3 cars last night:

Audi S1 for 14k

Skyline R32 for 50k. Had to really fight for it.

1992 NSX for 50k. Again had to fight hard.

 

[NLxAROSA]

Bagged an AMC Rebel The Beast for 3k.

 

[Populuxe]

Bagged an AMC Rebel The Beast for 3k.

I think you mean "The Machine" (I'm a bit of an AMC fanboy.) Those are a lot of fun and 3k is a great price.

 

[Kitten]

Bagged a 2011 WRX STI for 3k

 

[AudiMan2011]

More wins tonight:

599 GTO for 76k.

SVX for 5k.

My biggest score yet (will help for when I unlock the Goliath race); HE Viper for 717k.

I'm making a killing out of this.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

50K for an LFA. I am now watching someone bidding on one over 200. Poor them

 

[laserviper]

won a second Ford GT HE for 700k, charger daytona for 90k, 2nd lotus 340r for 6k, and the older ford falcon for 6k as well

 

[NLxAROSA]

I think you mean "The Machine" (I'm a bit of an AMC fanboy.) Those are a lot of fun and 3k is a great price.

You are of course correct, I stand corrected. 👍 The car is an absolute blast to drive and sounds amazing.

As for auctioning: wanted to get a Ford Ranger T6 Rally Raid, but people were bidding on it quite a lot, so I bid on three of them. Naturally, as soon as I did that, bidding stopped and I won all three. Put the other two back up for auction.

 

[Populuxe]

I got my final HE car at the auction house tonight. To be perfectly honest, I thought I would have to go much higher to get it. But there were several available so bidding was fairly light and I got my GT-R HE for a reasonable price.


I also recently won an M4 HE in the wheelspin after having bought one in the auction house. I bought mine for 395K. I sold the wheelspin car for 359K. So I lost a bit of money. Good thing it's not real money.

 

[yabiggoose]

Yiss.

 

[cbarbosa]

Believe it is a very nice price for the Warthog - 110.000CR (bid)

​

And the steal of the day! (200.000CR)

 

[FT-1]

Went scouting for some hot hatches then bagged a Focus ST for 5k Not sure why I bothered with the VXR, I already have one! (Didn't win it anyway)

 

[Billetag]

Picked up a Ford GT 05, for 40k and a srt viper 2013, for 10k.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Finally snagged a Gallardo Superleggera for 300,000 cr buyout.

 

[Luminis]

So, I just got myself the BRZ and the GT-R for about 700k each and the M4 for 400k.

Seems okay ,considering the what 1.8 million gets me in the auto show.
