Memory Card Clone Trick
This is a quick way to clone your favorite car, and max it out. You need 2 memory cards for this trick. First, save your game to memory card 1, then, sell all your cars except the one you want to max out. Use the money from the sales to fix up your chosen ride, and save that game to memory card 2. Now load memory card 1 in slot 1, and ask to trade with memory card 2 in slot 2. Once this is done, you can save the game to slot 1, and copy to slot 2. Repeat this process for a unlimited number of your dream car, which you can sell the copies to max out other cars in your inventory.
