I believe the cars have that price for two reasons:

- These updates are there to please NASCAR's fans first, filling the hole of the lack of a real NASCAR mobile racing game. Many are there just for that, and couldn't care less about 24 Heures du Mans as much as many people here care about Daytona 500.

- It's sort of a cultural thing for the fans to be passionate about some drivers. But there's a huge difference about an Vettel fan to an Dale Earnhardt Jr. fan. There is so much product labelled after the popular NASCAR drivers that the teams bring haulers just for the souvenirs (or used to, I don't know). My point is, that the fact that driver "X" isn't featured in the game, might throw a few of those fans away of the game, as "X" vehicle would just be another product to them. I don't follow a full NASCAR season since 2012 (ish), and Dale Jr. was the most popular driver. I believe that he still is, and my guess is that, if the 88 car wasn't featured in the first update, It would be a total financial failure. The fact that FM is repeating this, might mean that they are satifacted with the results, so expect more drivers in the future.

That's my two cents. I'm not saying I agree with the price, but I can understand why. As for the cars being the same, I agree they could be liveries. That's how it is for all of the cars of the game. But I guess FM profit more this way.
