Ever since it became FM's stated policy to "control" the flow of GC (I think it was actually Matt who made that clear way back), it has become nearly impossible to avoid overcommitting yourself to stay on course for 100%. For me, that's not much of an issue - I never seriously considered pushing for 100% anything, and I actively avoid new cars if I can't make the time or the GC. But it's telling that 100% completion or 100% garage are really no longer viable goals for an average player, even one willing to pay serious amounts of real money. The problem is, that's not an issue for EA/FM - as many have pointed out, they're more interested in player turnover than in maintaining a steady player base.

I don't see how (like I said, I refuse to lower myself into the world of farming, that's one grind I'll never sink to. It's a game, it's supposed to be entertainment, not a job).

It really depends what you mean by "farming." I'm bored to death of the LM 10-lapper, but I only need to run it 1-2 times a week to make use of the fame % bonuses (w/ free agent). Otherwise, "farming" for me means taking out the 488 GTE, which I love to do, or running a few races with the old Group C monstrosities, or taking one of several cars I actually enjoy using for a spin. It's always a chore if it's only a means to another end. If that's how things are for you, taking time away from the game may be the best option.
