Style Points are rewarded to the player for performing driving stunts and being competitive in race events. Reaching certain style point numbers will unlock vinyls and car presets.
Performing some style point actions will enable a multiplier for that action the more often the player can repeat it. Crashing into an obstacle such as a traffic vehicle or wall will reset the multiplier for all actions.
The Racebreaker feature in Need for Speed: Underground 2 uses similar gameplay mechanics to that of style points.
