Aftermarket Cars Guide — Finding Discounted Modified Cars

Beginner 5 min read Updated 2026-05-19

What Are Aftermarket Cars?

Aftermarket Cars are pre-modified vehicles found parked on roadsides across Japan. They're a new feature for FH6 and offer significant savings.

Key Benefits

  • Always cheaper than Autoshow prices
  • Already upgraded with performance parts
  • Unique visual modifications not available in upgrade shop

How the System Works

  1. Random spawns at roadside locations
  2. "For Sale" marker above them
  3. Limited time — despawns after a while
  4. New spawns triggered by driving new roads
  5. One-time purchase — won't reappear once bought

Where to Find Them

Tips

  • Drive roads you haven't visited, spawns favor less-traveled areas
  • Check highway rest stops and parking lots
  • Night driving in Tokyo — seems to increase rare spawns
  • Use Drone Mode to scout from above
