R$ cars are the "free samples" used to get you hooked. They will never add R$ cars in meaningful quantities, nor will they ever add a R$ car that is "better" than the BMW M3 GT2 ALMS. In the language of this game GC = developer revenue and the developers NEED the players to spend GC and watch ads. R$ cars defeat that purpose.

The observant player will notice that you quicky reach a good paying race at the end of the Amateur category. Any improvements in the ability to earn Fame is gated by a gold-coin expense. In the grand-scheme, you don't have to spend a lot, but you do have to spend.

These Formula E cars are an interesting addition to the game in the same way the Australian Supercars were. They are different than anything else in the game. I should say that one is interesting...three is redundantly redundant.

Speaking to why the cars are "expensive"...the user base has gotten to good at farming. The developers must see a lot of unspeng GC in users profiles, so they price the cars accordingly. Players continue to chase the expensive cars in high enough volume to communicate to the developers that the cars were not "too expensive" so they keep going. Posting comments on FB or Twitter or G+ do nothing (and posting them here does even less).

The ONLY way to communicate to the developers that the cars are too expensive is to not do the special events and to not buy them. and really, with very rare exception, you wouldn't be missing anything.

We could do a whole thread on this...
