It is two things (in my humble opinion) - has nothing to do with the value of the car, though there is some correlation to real-world value I suppose.

1) Car pricing creates a disincentive against purchasing an old car with GC when there are new cars available for less. Applies to all GC cars. In otherwords - new cars are priced to say "win me now because yo'd be a fool to buy me later."

2) It is an opportunity cost designed to create a sense of urgency around the time-limited event. In otherwords - "you'd better win me now or I'll get real expensive later."

The developers intend this platform to deliver new content to new-ish players. They probably make most of their real money from newer, less experienced players being drawn into the false urgency created by time limits. This puts pressure on the constrained currency which leads to players spending real money.

Don't take it personally.
