If you’re aiming to 100% Need for Speed Heat or unlock some of the rarest reward vehicles in the game, then tracking down all the collectibles is a must. The game doesn’t exactly throw guidance your way, but once you know the trick, it becomes a lot easier. This guide will walk you through how to find every collectible in the game—and exactly what you’ll unlock for doing it.

✅ The Secret to Finding Every Collectible

Most players overlook this one tool that makes collectible hunting dramatically easier:

Use the Progression Menu.

• Pause the game → Go to the Progression Tab → Choose Collections.
• From here, you’ll see a full breakdown of all collectibles in each region.
• You can even highlight specific items (like street art, flamingos, or decals), and press a button (Square/X) to mark their location on your map.

Even if you’ve never driven past a collectible, the game will still show its general location.

Fast travel to nearby safehouses, set a route, and begin collecting in bulk. Focus on one area at a time to make this less tedious.

🏆 What You Unlock From Collectibles

Each collectible type rewards you with a specific car—or in one case, a legendary final reward if you collect and complete everything.

Task	Unlockable Car
Smash all Flamingos	Nissan GT-R Nismo
Smash all Billboards	Nissan 370Z Nismo
Collect all Street Art/Decals	Porsche Cayman GT4
Get 3 Stars on All Drift Zones	Ford GT
Get 3 Stars on All Speed Traps	McLaren 600LT
Get 3 Stars on All Jumps	Lamborghini Performante Spyder
Complete ALL Collectibles & 3-Star All Activities	Ferrari 488 Pista

Some of these rewards—like the Ferrari 488 Pista—require both completing all collectibles and acing every activity. That means nailing jumps, speed traps, drift zones, and flamingo smashing. It’s a hefty goal, but well worth it for true completionists.

🔧 Tips for Finishing Collectibles Faster

• Use the Collection Tab First before trying to visually spot items on the map.
• Check terrain requirements: Some jumps or speed traps need off-road or track-tuned cars.
• Zoom into map icons: Fast traveling between regions is key. Try grouping your collectibles by proximity.
• Don’t stress about sequence: You can collect them in any order.
• Check article links: For 100% visual confirmation, use external guides with map screenshots (link in original creator’s video).

Final Thoughts

Even if you’re not a typical “completionist,” Need for Speed Heat’s collectibles are worth your time thanks to the generous car rewards tied to them. The game doesn’t always make it obvious how to track them down, but using the Collections tab and smart routing turns the process from a grind into something surprisingly manageable.

And once you’ve grabbed them all? You’ll be racing in a Ferrari 488 Pista knowing you earned it the hard way.

Until next time—peace out and enjoy the hunt!
