The point is, if you could win the Testarossa with no upgrades then the Countach would be cheaper to upgrade to complete 80's Poster Exotics and it would complete Clash Of The Classics for less upgrades meaning you don't need to upgrade the SHELBY COBRA 427® (1966) at all. The fact you had to put so many upgrades on the Testarossa made it more expensive for you to maintain 100% than the cheapest upgrade path. Technically, this means that many drivers with low gold might have been better waiting for a sale on the Testarossa (though that might never come with a ferrari).

This is a moot point with a low cost car but it can make a big difference with more expensive cars. The LaFerrari, for example, needed a lot of upgrades to win it when it came up in an LTS and at the time you didn't need any upgrades for 100% complete. Thanks, that makes sense. So once upon a time upgrading the Cobra was best. Gotta love how these things morph over time.

I'd say the days of R$ only SE events are long gone. We get the very odd one now and again. I believe the last one was the NISSAN SKYLINE...BNR32. Oddly enough, the other most recent R$ only car was in the same update being the KOENIGSEGG ONE:1. Both in V5.2 which was released April 18, 2017, so almost a year ago. There was the Bugatti Veyron community challenge in version 5.5 or 5.6 which could be completed with RS upgrades only,if I remember correctly and I'm having only 12 upgrades on the car currently That was a weird one. Also it was an LTS, not an SE. I believe that's the only LTS you could win with just R$. I expect their intent was to get as much of the "community" involved as possible.
