You need to give us an idea of what stage of the Career you are in. If you are only in Masters, then you will need to work your way through Elite to get to legends and most of those cars.

Next, what are your long range goals for the game? 100% Completion of Career; all series; Owning all Cars; 100% of all?

First, I would cross off of your list each and every car that only figures into a Bonus Series and/or an Exclusive Series, unless you are competitive each week on the Weekly Time Trial Tournament, meaning that you are in Group C or better over all, and that car shows up repeatedly as the top car in group. That means the Jaguar F-Type SVR, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Koenigsegg One:1, McLaren MP4-X, Jaguar C-X75, Ferrari FXX K, among others come off the list unless there is a Flashback Event or Limited Time Series that gives you the opportunity to win the car for upgrades only.

The Porsche 919 Hybrid (2014) and either the Audi R18 e-tron quattro (2015), Porsche 919 Hybrid (2015), or the NISSAN GT-R LM Nismo (2015) are probably the most important cars to get other than those that allow you to advance in career series. However, you do not need all three from each year. You only need one to farm Endurance Kings (2014 LMP1 Cars) or Endurance Champions (2015 LMP1 Cars). They still have the highest paid fame races.

If your goal is to advance in career without 100% completion, at least for the time being, then you should remember that you only need a single car from a Career Series that gets you enough trophies to unlock the next Series. You can find that information on Upgrades Strategy For 100% Completion, however, remember that this is subjective, and what may be a good strategy or less expensive for one series may not be optimal for another.

Other than that, if you really like the car, and can't wait to have it, then maybe give in to the temptation and get it. While racing is always about optimization and trade-offs; getting the least worst outcome at times; sometimes you just have to live a little and enjoy the fruits of your labor, even if that means slowing your advancement a bit.
