Talk:List of all cars (fully upgraded)/@comment-208.184.141.147-20150112230202

I would appreciate some feedback about the relative merits of the F50 vs the F40 for the 4 lap Le mans race at the end of the Classic Ferrari Showdown.

In my impetuous youth, I fully upgraded an F50 and used to be able to win the race with assists on max and without breaking a sweat. Perhaps less sporting than driving assist-free, etc., but it was a good way to farm R$ and fame, particulary in the case of fame with a double Agent bonus. I guess this was too good because the flaming monkeys tinkered with the game a few weeks back and now I cannot consistently win this match with break assists on low. Sometimes yes, sometyimes no, which makes wasting a free agent on the chance that I will win a bad deal.

Question is, should I bother ramping up my F40 so that it is fully loaded? I understand that its higher top speed is an advantage given the many long stretches and that this likely is outweighed by the slightly worse handling. But is it enough that I should be able to consistently beat the game so that I can go back to a steadier accumulation of gold pieces?

I know that the 10 lap Le Mans race at the end of Endurance Kings provides for even more potential reward when aiming at doubling up, etc. However, the close to 30 minutes required to play makes it less attractive, particularly as I understand that the difficulty level was ratcheted up there as well and that a souped up Porsche is not a lock on winning either, so barring persuasive arguments to the contrary, i have decided not to waste/invest the Gold to upgrade the Porsche further (currently at 93.4) and definitely not to try and upgrade the Audi or Toyota (currently 92.7) further to make that my main farming opportunity.

Sorry for the length of the question/rant, but any insights are appreciated.

By the way, when I just want to blow off steam and collect a little R$ and 2500 in fame, I will race the Indiannapolis Speedway race at 10.3 in Supercar Elites with a burnt out Koenigsegg Agera (at 81.1) and typically have no problem winning the race handily with the brake assists completely off.
