I agree, they have given us a lot of opportunities to earn additional GC lately, and now the time has come to spend that GC to win the car they are offering. I understand that was their plan and that's why I'm not really that mad about it either. I'm really more frustrated than anything else. I was so used to winning most all of the previous cars with only R$ upgrades so this is a big change for me.

I also don't look at it as a bait and switch by FM at all. You are still winning the car for free, you're paying for the upgrades. If they took away the upgrades after you get the car, then it would be a bait and switch. As is though, I'm still getting a 950GC car for free, and I get to keep all the upgrades I bought for it as well once it's all said and done.

As long as FM continues to keep providing ways to build up a decent stockpile of GC, I guess I won't mind giving them some back in these Special Events. I count myself lucky though that I'm at a high enough level now where I can earn R$ and GC at a decent pace. I think this new method is really going to make it tough for less-skilled and less-experienced players to win these cars since they have much less R$ and GC to work with. I don't think that's very fair to them. These cars should be winnable for players of nearly any skill level, not just those that have deep R$ and GC pockets.
