My goal is to get as far as I can upgrading as minimally as I can just to barely beat the sim cars. However, I'm finding that the upper level cars are getting to be too expensive in Gold. (Currently going for the Porsche 911 RSR 2014 @ 400 Gold.) May have to decide I'm done with the game soon which would be a shame since it is awesome! By the way, I'm not a total cheapskate as I've spent over $100 in the game over the months, but am not willing to spend more than about $20 per month and looks like to progress I will need to exceed that. Oh well, it's been fun anyway. It's possible to be positive in gold each release if you have the time. See http://rr3.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Sirebel/Mazda_Update_(5.4.0)#comm-189436 for Siribel's walkthrough of how he did it last release. I did it slightly differenlty (see my comment at bottom of page linked to), but was also gold positive. Keep trying, don't give up! I'm on level 207 and have 162 cars now and only spent $20 on 1000 gold last Christmas
