Plus:

 * 102 to upgrade SPADA Codatronca TS for Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase
 * 72 reward for Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase
 * 205 net spend

Alternatively:
 * 216 to buy the SPADA Codatronca Barchetta at showcase discount
 * 225 to upgrade for Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase
 * 102 to upgrade SPADA Codatronca TS
 * 72 reward for Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase
 * 471 net spend

Doing the LTS and upgrading both SPADA for the Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase is a cheaper net spend than just buying the SPADA Codatronca Barchetta at showcase discount. A real no-brainer.

I'm sure someone will come back with a reason not to do this but it will be as hairbrained at the "it's cheaper to skip" schemes.

I've no idea where you got over 300 for the SPADA Codatronca Barchetta, it only costs 345 to fully upgrade.

The Chevrolet Camaro SS (2017) will only cost 97 to win for a 20 reward, so a net cost of 77.

The Aston Martin Vantage GTE (2017) will cost up to 423 to win for an 80 reward. This car is almost useless in the game and only relevant if you want a full garage or 100% completion (it's only needed for the showcase events in GTE-Pro: Aston Martin and Porsche) and probably won't need any upgrades to do them.

Personally, I'd get the SPADA Codatronca Barchetta and the Chevrolet Camaro SS (2017) and only get the Aston Martin Vantage GTE (2017) if you can afford it.

I planned to skip the Aston and get the Spada and Camaro.

I have the 2017RSR at -1 engine. That got me to 94% in the GTE Pro: Aston Martin and Porsche series.

I alao have the Spada TS at 2222232. I'm at 43% in the Spadaconcept Supercar Showcase. So stopping at 75% will get another 36 gold. For a net spend of 88 gold. Not bad.

In Maximum Muscle I'm at 64%,so stopping at 75% will get another 13 gold,so the Camaro will be a net spend of 64 gold. Not bad,either.

Again,thanks for the detailed breakdown.
