Aftermarket Cars are modified vehicles parked around Japan that can be test-driven or purchased. Inspect the exact car and its price before choosing it for your next event.
Look near the activity you want to enter
The official car-culture guide describes Aftermarket Cars near Festival events and Time Attack Circuits. Those are useful areas to inspect when your current vehicle does not suit an activity. This is a starting point for exploration, not a guarantee that one fixed stock list appears everywhere.
Use the test drive as a buying check
Our suggested decision process focuses on suitability rather than rarity alone.
- Read the listing and compare the model year with your collection.
- Compare its current class with the event restriction.
- Test how it brakes, turns and puts power down before spending credits.
- Check whether a cheaper car you already own could serve the same purpose.
- Confirm the final price and vehicle before accepting the purchase.
Keep ownership separate from the displayed build
A recognizable model name does not tell you which parts are installed. If you are following a seasonal objective, verify its full car restriction. Buying an attractive body kit is not proof that the car is eligible or competitive.

Should I buy every modified car I see?
That depends on your collection goal. For a specific race, compare eligibility and driving behavior first; appearance alone does not answer those questions.
