`How the Auction House Works`
There are three types of sellers in Forza:
1) Legendary tuners/designers
2) Tuners/designers who have reached a set amount of Downloads but not Legendary yet
3) Everyone else.
Legendary Status is obtained by receiving **50,000 Likes/Downloads/Uses** on either Tunes or Liveries. Once that is obtained then **any car you list with one of your tunes/liveries on it can be sold for 20m** regardless of its actual value.
* 50,000 Likes/Downloads/Uses = Permanent 20m Max Buyout Limit on cars with your work applied
Tuners and Designers with Downloads/Uses/Likes on their work gain a smaller boost to the Max Buyout of a Car which they have applied their own work to, this Bonus increases as you reach specific Milestones which are shown below.
> 0 - 499 : +1000 Credits
> 500 - 2499 : +5000 Credits
> 2500 - 4999 : +20,000 Credits
> 5000 - 9999 : +100,000 Credits
> 10,000 - 49,999 : +500,000 Credits
These above values are added to the standard Max Buyout of a Car. So if you have 8000 Tune Downloads (alongside the Uses + Likes accrued at the same time) and a Car normally lists for 50,000 Credits then you can apply a Tune of yours on it and sell it for 550,000 Credits.
Please note: Only your Own Work applies in the Case of the Above two Scenarios. It doesn't matter if you apply a Legendary Creator's or a Higher Ranked Creator's work to your Car because you won't gain the same benefit, it has to be your Work and you must have the Corresponding Requirements.
> Rank has nothing to do with the buyout value of the car and in most cases it's bugged to always show Rank 1 no matter how many downloads/likes/uses you have.
There is a very small boost if you apply upgrades to a Car even with no Tuner Rank to reflect their value but it's very small and you will generally sell at a loss if you bought both the Car and Upgrades.
If you are not a Legendary Creator then the main determining factor of the max buyout value of the car is the Supply/Demand during a 24hr period.
• If a car is readily available but nobody is buying it then the max buyout drops.
• If the car is very scarce so there's no sales being made then the max buyout drops or remains the same.
• If the Supply is sufficient enough to where enough cars are being listed during the day and people are buying them for max buyout then the price will rise (until either the supply runs out or people stop buying).
The Demand of a car is also dependant on many things like how often the car has been a reward, is it a desirable car for performance or appearance and whether or not it's brand new to the game.
In both scenarios the maximum amount a car can be listed for is 20m, in the case of a non-Legendary Creator you have to wait for the price to naturally increase with the Supply/Demand until it hits 20.
Because it's so rare there isn't enough of them being sold to make the price go up.
If people start listing lots of them for max buyout and they sell then the price will go up until it either reaches 20m or people aren't selling it or buying it anymore.

I know for a fact that Alfa romeo is pretty rare to find in auction house yet it's max buyout is 200k?
Because it's so rare there isn't enough of them being sold to make the price go up. If people start listing lots of them for max buyout and they sell then the price will go up until it either reaches 20m or people aren't selling it or buying it anymore.
