So, the opportunities within the Christmas update now seem to be clear and I'm sure many of us have a chest full of gold we've carefully set aside for this very event. And what opportunities! 7 new cars (all in LTEs), 3 very attractive "old" cars in LTEs, 3 waves of car sales, a 40% "pick em" sale, and a few upgrade sales.

At the same time, it appears the monkeys are looking for some payback for the booboo they fixed in the summer and have tried their best to maximize their gold return on those opportunities; only 5 upgrade sales, the lowest discount LTE I can find (McLaren MP4/4 for 14% Gross, 24% Net), and one of the most expensive cars ever from a G/PR point of view (Porsche 718 RSK, 24.5 R$ G/PR and 30.1 FU G/PR; the only other cars in this neighborhood are the Jag E-Type @R$).

So many opportunities to spend gold and so many gold traps. How does everybody plan to maneuver through this?

Personally, I have to have those new Nissans and FXX-K, and have lusted after the Agera-R since I was finishing the career in 2016. I luv me some F1's, but already have 3 better ones; I am tempted to use the 40% pick'em on the 4/4 so I can put it in the garage and play with the decorations I bought last Christmas during the SE. I would like to buy the '15 919 on sale to complete the set, and want to skip the 718; I just need to stay strong and avoid the temptation. The rest of the car sales I'll skip, and I will probably go for the MP4-X (it's on sale, right? I have to do the LTE!!!).
