I went to the drag race “Riot Club” (not sure if it’s specific to this one drag race, but I assume it works with any other race as well).

The easiest option is to buy the Koenigsegg Regera and equip one upgrade in each slot at a tune-up shop, then it will instantly be level 399. Head to any race for which you have a derelict car. There is a beneficial glitch to get the trophy “Another Man’s Treasure” without ever having to upgrade a derelict car, confirmed to be working with patch 1.03: Simply get any car in the game to level 399. Recommendation: Nissan Fairlady 240ZG (Category: Racing). Always stick to your Derelict Car and upgrade it piece by piece. In contrast, there aren’t many drag races in the game so you’d have huge gaps between events if you turned your Derelict into a Drag Car. I recommend going with the race category as it has the most events available. For each one you can freely choose the car category (race, drag, offroad, drift, runner). Then you can rebuild those old cars in the garage and upgrade them by winning races, or by buying upgrades from the tune-up shop. Derelict Cars require you to find 5 parts in the open world. It is available after beating the first league boss “Udo Roth” (offroad quest line). I recommend the Nissan Fairlady 240ZG in the Race Class.

To reduce the grind later, you should work on upgrading a Derelict Car from the beginning. The first step is simple: play through the story. Step 1: Play through the Story (Any Difficulty) & Upgrade a Derelict Car to Level 399 After all else is done you won’t be anywhere close to Level 50 so be prepared for a long grind. Reaching REP Level 50 is the most time consuming task. Just drive along every road and you’ll unlock their locations on the map. The collectibles get marked on the map when you go near them. The main task for the platinum trophy is finding all collectibles and reaching REP Level 50. The performance upgrades in this game are done through randomized cards that you earn for each win or by buying them at Tune-Up shops. You have 5 racing disciplines, each one requiring different cars (Racer, Drifter, Runner, Offroad, Drag). Welcome to the Need for Speed Payback Trophy Guide!
