Complete the Grand

How to unlock the Found Family achievement in Need for Speed Unbound - Definitive Guide

This achievement requires you to complete The Grand in story mode.

This is the final event in story mode, and just like the previous qualifiers, has two requirements:

-$200,000 Buy In
-A, A+, S and S+ Class Cars

This means you need to have $200,000 cash and at least one A, A+, S and S+ Class car by the end of Friday evening. At this point you should have quite the collection of cars so that should not be an issue, and it should be old hat on how to progress through the week. If you want some tips, obviously keep an eye on your heat and be smart about the races you choose to do. Only go for the big money races. Don't waste time with small payouts or trying to complete every event in a day or night.

It's also important to keep in mind you want to do the races that have the biggest difference between the buy in and the reward, not the races with the biggest reward. This is because your buy in is included in the reward. For example, it's better to do a race that has a buy in of $4000 and a payout of $16,000 over a race that has a buy in of $10,000 and a payout of $20,000 since you're +$12,000 in the first scenario but only +$10,000 in the second scenario.

Another tip is I always tried to stay below Heat 3 going into the night as the night events pay out more than the ones during the day, and as soon as I hit Heat 5 I'd make my way to the garage.

Anyways, once you reach The Grand, just race through the set of races as normal. Once you finish the qualifier you'll get your achievement, $1,000,000 and the car you originally started the game with.

I'll definitely back you up on choosing your races carefully. Took me a while to get into this NFS as I started by trying to do all the races, all the time. Constantly getting heat 5 during the first week, day and night getting busted & losing everything. This is a different take on NFS and you have to think about what you're doing in career rather than just blasting through every race as in previous games. Very good once you get your head round it though.

I’ve just had this achievement bug out and not unlock. Any suggestions?

I’ve tried to complete a few races and reset console but remains locked.

I ended up replaying the story and managed to get it to pop this time… very odd but fortunately the story only takes 6 hours if you’re quick

You can save a lot of travel time! If you already have a car of the required class and enough money for the final qualifying race of the week, you can simply waste your days getting caught by the police.
