It's interesting to remember that you also need gold to do the upgrade/restore trick.

Full upgrading a LaFerrari, for instance, costs more than 1,000. So, the argument that closing this hole gives a unfair advantage for those who have more gold is a fallacy. The regular user that struggles to bank ~50 each week was not affected, as he just don't have the gold to FU a car.
