I used to maintain a five-figure gold account. At a point I turned into a dragon with all my gold hoarding.

I used more of an ROI perspective, "return on investment". A Cars ROI can sometimes depend on your abilities. For example;
 * Some cars are featured in many series, while others are only featured in one. So selective spending their can benefit you.
 * For the 0.1% of group A WTTT drivers, fully upgrading makes sense every week. That's 15,600 gold a year just there.
 * If you can run Endless Endurance races, then fully upgrading certain cars makes sense. You can earn back your gold from the Audi LMS Ultra or Porsche RSR Concept in just a couple of long races. Then full up the Ferrari FXX K or McLaren MP4-X and get into the big money earners.
 * During 100% of Fame bonus period like we just had, faster cars means more races run within the time frame.

I've changed my strategy several times along the way as I surpassed certain goals and increased in skill. I still remember having a very hard time just winning Cup races in this game! I'll never forget the McLaren MP4-12C at Melbourne... took me so long to win that one!
