I don't think the timing of April 21st makes sense for this event if it is unlocked in its bonus series on May 7th. That is over two weeks from the start of the Event. I think it is more likely that the Gauntlet is first and then the Hennessey.

I also think that the reason this Gauntlet is the Aston Martin is that it is a way of FM to get players gold for the upgrades needed on The Hennessey to win during the event. By Gold Car standards, it is relatively inexpensive.

With Showcase discount and upgrades the Vanquish cost me GC150 gold to get it to PR48.3. Likely enough performance for The Gauntlet, and I end up winning back all the gold the car has cost me.
