God this is amazing news,Been waiting for a game to have this forever ;D


Introducing the Forza Motorsport 2 online auction house -- a completely new and in-game marketplace where players buy and sell their one-of-a-kind cars to a vibrant Xbox Live community. Just like Photo Mode or Tournaments, we’ve also folded some of FM2’s Auction House functionality onto Forzamotorsport.net. What this means for FM2 players is that they’re never far from keeping tabs on all the Auction House action when they log into Forzamotorsport.net.

Here are some details about how Auction House will work in FM2. Come to Forzamotorsport.net when you’re away from your Xbox 360 to follow your auctions, or simply whittle the time away by browsing thousands of unique cars online. Just remember, all money spent and earned in FM2’s Auction House is in-game career cash.

Auction House in Forza Motorsport 2:
Create online auctions and sell your customized rides for big bucks. Dictate the terms of your sale by setting price, length of auction, instant buyout amount… even spend a little cash to mark your auction as a “featured” sale!
Bid and outbid others for the hottest cars on the market. Since no two cars are alike, even the most common vehicles have unique value and worth.
Auction House gives both car tuning experts and adept livery painters purpose as they can now build up in-game wealth through selling their masterpieces online.
The ability to hide car setups online turns tuning into a hot commodity.
The ability to lock paintjobs to their respective cars makes these customized cars truly one-of-a-kind.
Every vehicle comes with exhaustive car history data, including total distance and time driven, total winnings, total cost of repairs, number of races, number of owners, number of times sold, and more.
Every vehicle sold will also come with all its extra (and stock) parts in the trunk.

where the hell have you been

way old news. they are not the first game to do that. let me take you back about 5 years.

youve been waiting for a game like this forever. you missed it 5 years ago.

A game called Motor city online. had the same thing. and it was better because you could auction off parts and or shells of cars, or whole cars, just like ebay. engines, tires, everything. you could auction off shocks even or a set of rims.
not just the whole car and the stock parts with the upgraded ones, like forza will have

you had mileage in that gam, things wore out with more miles. so you had to replace them occasionally. also you had damage and you had to pay to fix your car.

same game as forza, but on the streets of cities and drag strips, and it was all muscle cars. you name it they had it. a hell of alot more tuning, and customization and it had the auction features like this.

way better game to. f***in EA. wtf.
