If you agree to buy a car in real life, say in an internet special for a Christmas holiday event from the dealership- then for any reason, cannot make it to the dealership before the sale is over. You would not have any expectation that the same dealership would still honor the deep discounts they offered during the Christmas event.

Ok, but in real life the best engineers don't "upgrade" your Ferrari F14-T lol
 * These cars were offered during special events with special awards. Currently the special has passed, and there's a new special. If you cannot procure said car through normal progress or showcase discounts as the become an opportunity, then you can still get them for the mere cost of upgrades by participating in the same events.

They're only trying to defend the indefensible and justify the unjustifiable IMO =)
