I take your point, and agree with a lot of what you're saying.

I, however, differ in opinion on a couple of points. I don't consider the Hommage R to be a high-tiered car. It is, for some reason, more expensive to fully-upgrade than a recent high-tiered car, the REGERA. That is a car worthy of the cost, even if I'd rather spend Gold in upgrading cars for 100% completion. Just considering German Grand Tour, the Hommage R, as the only new car, is the only one that allows to 100% the series (same story with the '75 3.0 CSL in Retro RWD Tour and the Hennessey in Breakneck Legends) for a return on investment of -460 Gold. To put it in perspective, that makes it the 6th worst ROI series in the game, after Spirit of Ferrari and the four 2015 NASCAR Bonus Series.

Putting that aside, Special Events usually allow players of all skill and resources to obtain the car, except a couple of Goals here and there that require upgrading. This time, upgrading the car makes the opponents slower, which takes away some of the challenge.

Just my opinion, I could go further in detail but I'd only be repeating what others have said before me, and you've mostly addressed that :P
