Allow selling car upgrades

Please, allow us to sell/disable car upgrades.

Sometimes, upgrading your car will make it less fun, more difficult to drive, or just too fast for your multiplayer buddies.

Right now, the only way to downgrade your car is to be in a multiplayer lobby, that has car upgrades disabled. But this nukes all your upgrades. And maybe you want your car to only have handling upgrades? You don't want more powerful engine, that would make you oversteer more?

We already had upgrade system in GRID 2, which allowed us to freely change the upgrade setup of our car - for example, get rid of drivetrain upgrades and get engine upgrades instead.

I don't understand why upgrading your car in Legends is one way ticket? Why aren't we able to just disable some of the upgrades we already bought?

Just add this to upgrade menu of our cars. You buy upgrades from left to right - alow us to downgrade from right to left, as we please.

  • @painisawarning Yup! Also, if I could sell upgrades, I could purchase some of the more expensive cars I'd rather be driving sooner rather than later. I'd even take a 25-50% restocking fee hit for this?

    @DJ_Englishman I don't really care for getting any money back, I just want to be able to disable specific upgrades that I already bought.

    Upgrading your car in singleplayer makes AI go faster, so sometimes upgrading is actually counterproductive.

    And sometimes the upgrade just makes the car less enjoyable to drive, and with no way of disabling that upgrade, you're stuck forever with the car you don't like.

    @painisawarning I appreciate you do not care. Pity that affluent GL plyrs cannot even buy a duplicate of a car re unwanted upgrades. A plus of autosport even was being able to sell your cars, unclocked of course.

    @DJ_Englishman Yeah, I think being able to sell stuff (upgrades or cars) would not hurt this game at all 🙂

    I never had money problems in this game, never had to grind for money, but I guess other people were not that lucky?

    Not many cars are buyable in this game, you get most of them just by unlocks... still it wouldn't hurt to have the sell option.

    @painisawarning I played MP not story/career mode, so almost all cars have for sale signs to me! When my ISP is next down, I'll check out the unlocks as you suggest, thanks.

    @DJ_Englishman That's unfortunate.
    You're paying the price of the design here - Grid2 and Autosport had separate singleplayer/multiplayer enviroments. With Grid2019 and Legends you are forced to play single to be able to compete in multi...
