# Cars

Cars are the core asset of the game, as they are required to play the game. &#x20;

Game has 4 types of cars:&#x20;

1. Basic Cars (non-NFT)
2. Stock cars&#x20;
3. Premium cars
4. Genesis cars

Players can start the game by choosing one free Basic car. The free car is non-NFT. This type of cars cannot be sold, also it doesn't have rarity parameter and it doesn't generate any income in IPS token.&#x20;

**Stock cars -** entry level NFT cars sold by developer. Cars are sold without any tuning, and lowest rarity level.&#x20;

**Premium cars -** mid level NFT cars sold by developer, priced higher then stock cars. Quantity of premium cars is limited. Cars have better performance in game. Cars are sold without any tuning, but rarity level is higher compared to stock cars.&#x20;

Players can buy NFT cars from website dashboard marketplace using IPS token.

The first set of cars released is the Genesis Collection, consisting of 1000 cars. Cars released at Genesis will never be minted again.&#x20;

### Car Value

Cars have value from two perspectives: rarity and in game attributes. Rarity is derived from upgrades purchased and installed in the game, type of Vinyls on car, its position and number in the release, and the collection it is in. In game attributes consist of Car Class, Car XP, and Car Performance Upgrades.

NFT Cars are tradable in marketplace. When the car is sold, any upgrades that were purchased in-game are also sold with the car.
