@EA_Barry  I have a question.  First of all let me start by saying that in my opinion, its been a rough start for the game content wise.  However I'm am very glad to see that the team is dedicated to further develop the game into realizing a greater potential.  I'm definitely looking forward to future updates to come.  About all cars being able to max out at 399, I would like to know how would this be done for currently owned cars.  For instance, let's say that I have a 240sx that's capped at 299 but I spent endless about of spins to guarantee that I got the best triple perk parts I wanted for my car.  If I decided to max that car to 399 would I have to do the work all over again farming tokens to spin for parts close to or equally valued as my last parts or will there be some sort of option to keep my perk attributes and just elevate the car level to 399?  

PS:  Keep up the good work guys

I searched the forums for answers to the same question, about the maxed out 299 cars.
Now, don't quote me on this, but I don't believe EA would think about giving us that freebie, unless maybe they DID consider it, making it an option you have to pay for. Kind of like the "catch-up packs." Say, your maxed out 180SX is set up almost just the way you want it, card-wise. After the update, maybe you could go to the tune up shop, switch over to the catch-up pack tab, and they would have added a 4th option, giving you the ability to (uncap?) your LV299, and upgrade it to 399, whilst keeping the brand bonuses and perks you have collected.

I know it's a long shot, but knowing EA, if they give us that option, that's most likely how it's gonna work.

    Also, I keep seeing comments about it being a "paid dlc", but I haven't seen anything confirming how much it would cost, or if we even have to pay for it. Like the abandoned cars before were free, you just had to pay for the Mini JVC Countryman, Infiniti Q60 S, Pontiac Trans Am Firebird, and Aston Martin DB5.
    They may give us the new abandoned cars for free, but the 3 newly announced cars might come at a price

      @tonyhawkug Thats what I was thinking too. The abandoned cars would be free and the 3 extra cars propably cost some money each car would be like 2,99$ or 3,99$ just like they did before and bundle option I guess would be 7,99$ to 9,99$

      Somewhere in that range.
      I still hope there will be a tuning part update after this big update where we get new tuning parts, bodykits just to customize even further. Also new content for the free roam 🙂
