To access all cars, highlight Arcade Mode and press A, Left, Left, C-Down, A, Right, Z.
All cars
Press A, Left(2), C-Down, A, Right, Z at the arcade mode screen. Note: The bonus cars will not be enabled by this code. For the Japanese version of the game, hold L + R and press [C-Left + C-Right + C-Up + C-Down] four times at the car selection screen.

Highlight a car, hold L + R + C-Up + C-Down + C-Left + C-Right, and press Up or Down.
Change paint job
At the Decal screen, hold L, R, and Left C, Right C, or Top C. As you hold, press Up and Down to lighten and darken the paint job. The color depends on which C button your holding.
Change the camera in the into demos
In the intro demos(with the cars racing) to cycle through the camera angles simply press the C buttons clockwise. e.g. C-right, then C-down, then C-left (this will rotate through the different camera angles one by one).
Chrome Plating
Finish the fifth year (all six seasons, including Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Expert and Professional), and a new "easter egg" will allow you to change your car textures to "mirror." Simply click the lower C-Button when on the car selection screen, and you can race as a chromed car. Looks best in replays.
Coastline Shortcut
At the first corner take the right hand road, NOT THE TUNNEL. The road is a much easier and hence faster turn. After the first natural tunnel you go through you'll find a break in the guardrail on your right. Go though this break and continue straight across a beach (along the water) for this shortcut. After you re-enter from the beach, turn left, right, left and before you finish the next right you'll notice a break in the stone wall on your left (you should be able to see a lighthouse in front of you). Turn through the break and stay to the left on the grass so that you are running beside a stone wall. This will lead you to the end of the short cut.
Desert Shortcut
After you leave the city you'll see a house on the right hand side of the road. SLOW DOWN and turn onto the grass before the house and follow the tire marks. They'll lead you through the short cut. This is a difficult short cut. You might want to skip this one until you've learned to control the carsbetter. After travelling through a valley, you'll have a choice between a high and low road. Take the low road to your left and put the petal to the floor. The high road has some sharp turns in it, but the load road is one long sweeping left handers.
Earning the Bonus Cars
To access the bonus cars you need to all six seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Expert and Professional) for the years shown. Finishing the first year grants you the MILK TRUCK. After the second year you'll be the proud owner of a HELMET CAR. In the third year you earn the CUPRA CAR glowing bow on wheels. And last but not least, in the fourth year you gain the BEACHBALL CAR.
