What does the purple symbol with the star at the car dealer actually mean? If you want to buy a new car in the new Need for Speed Heat, you have to go to the car dealer. The car dealer is shown on the map with a kind of hand symbol and can also be reached by fast travel. In order to unlock more cars at the car dealer, you have to collect REP points and increase the REP level. You can then use the money you earn to buy a new car. If you scroll through the car list, some players will probably notice the purple symbol or the purple star and the question arises, what does that mean?
Need for Speed Heat: Purple star at the car dealer
The purple star is displayed on cars whose optical tuning cannot be adjusted at all or only to a limited extent in the garage. You can see the symbol especially on expensive cars that have been heavily modified ex works or that are special editions, such as the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Coupe or the McLAREN P1 GTR.
How much you can modify and visually tune a car can be seen not only from the purple symbol with the star, but also from the so-called tuning rating. If a car has a low tuning rating, the customization options are very limited and sometimes the car can hardly be customized except for a few parts. With a car with a high tuning rating, you can make a lot of adjustments to the car.
In addition to the purple symbol at the car dealer, many Need for Speed Heat players are also wondering what the exclamation mark on the map actually means. The exclamation mark will always appear on the map during a race if the race is available for different levels with different ratings. Depending on how high the rating is, the level of difficulty also increases. At the same time, you also get more money or REP points for the races (depending on whether you race during the day or night).
Tip: These are the fastest cars in Need for Speed Heat.
