So, I started with the Skyline GT-R, 42 events, 41 GC. On my way!

Then the MB 190E, 54 events, 30 GC. Whew...

The RX-7, 48 events, 20 GC... Dude...

Then the 370Z, BMW M1, Testarossa, 240Z, M3 GTS, Hellcat, LP560-4, Silvia, Vantage S, F-Type SVR and finally the R8 RMS.

692 race, countless laps and sprints, and earned 685 GC, plus the 20 I had, and I was able to upgrade. Racing for free is awesome! How long did all of this take? He never did any of it. It was all fiction, a made up story to make a point, to get people going or something. The problem is it wasn't apparent that it was made up. He stated a little above that it was fiction. I should of known and not taken the bait. If he had done it all, he would also have stated the fame he made along the way that provided level-up gold.

It came from a convo some teammates and I were having on just how much work we had to put in to earn (instead of buy) certain things. I DID need to make this upgrade and later I DID do some ES's to get there. But I did the much more profitable ones :)

I am not quite at 100% but getting there, this was one of the bigger hurtles (in terms of cost). It's really not been an issue of time as I'm unlucky (the reason why, not the having it) enough to have some on my hands and it's quite frustrating to work at something that I find myself having to pay to play/finish instead of just going nuts racing over and over and over and over and over and over and over the same tracks/races/bots to earn so very little. And you must admit that my example drives the point home. I've long maintained that the rewards could use buffing, it's so underwhelming to finish a major task and get little or no meaningful reward.

To your point - hitting 100% shoudl always reward in some fashion. Hell, even give us an Achievement unlock or some R$, anything other than, literally, nothing. When I learned that hitting a full 100% game completion my reward was ... nothing, it slowed me way down. I was racing (pun intended) my way there to see what would happen... now I'm saving myself a hundred a month (being over anxious) and the disappointment of reaching that let down.

As for re-visiting 100% after being there. They could treat it like they do when you rerun an old series, give a much lower reward. Perhaps: 500 GC the first time, 50 GC subsequent times.
