Also this gives us skippers more peace of mind now we can even win back skipped LTS in future Not really...

If I understood how they explained this to the Game Changers correctly, there will not be completion rewards for Event Vault events.

You will get the opportunity to win the car, but you won't get gold rewards for the event.

That means unless you are certain you will never ever want the car, then it is always best to win the car in the Update it is introduced or gamble that they may one day run the event again as an "old car" LTS. Thanks for clearly spelling that out but the decision to skip is based on currently known information (lack of ES for example which can change down the line). So while I agree in general that you should not skip cars just because you can win it later (w/ downside that you mentioned factored in) ideally most of the decisions to skip wont change later only in case of few decisions you can still get them by paying only upgrade prices (still much cheaper than buying them in sales). Also the additional factors are as the event vault and count of your skipped cars grow it will be difficult to get your desired car due to this random nature of the cars being presented to you. Maybe you can put in one chepeast gold upgrade on it to push it further in the queue (provided you get access to the car via loaning)

Overall this sounds like a big downgrade for player with semi full to near full garage. For newer player this sound like a better deal that what was before due to wider selection and continuous availability compared to earlier limited selection. The plus is that we get to play even the older LTS which was not possible before. So overall order of preference in winning new cars would be

1) Current special events of LTS (including events such as Race day)

2) Re run LTS like Sesto in 7.4

3) Event Vault

4) Sales (although do consider combined cost of winning and upgrading the car as in very few cases that can be a better combined deal especially since now Event vault offers no reward other than the car
