After considering what people in this thread have said and where I'm at in RR3, I am now changing my outlook on hoarding for several reasons.

When I started spending gold on upgrades to finish series I found a problem... I'm too far behind! I have a LOT of racing to do for 100% completion again. The Elite series represent a lot of time. I like to run those flat out, no bot slowing, to test my skills. So then I can't do too much before I have to service.

I said I didn't care about 100% completion anymore, but apparently I was deceiving myself ;-) When I re-finished Expert and that little 100% appeared again, it did feel like an accomplishment.

I've noticed that my gold stash is hardly moved since I've started this thread, I did the final required upgrades on 8 cars. All of these represented a net loss of 200 gold to 500 gold each. Yet I am again nearing 10,000 gold. If I don't spend anymore gold, I'll cross 10,000 again this Sunday when the WTTT closes. My monthly gold earnings amount is much higher than I expected.

There's only a coulpe of cars that I might wait on for sales. The One:1 for exemple represents a net loss of 947 gold after upgrades... YIKES!

In conlcusion, I've got all available cars and a big bank roll... it's time to spend. Why am I even playing if not to compete and complete? If I wait too long in saving, I may lose the chanse to enjoy what I've saved for. Either the game ends and I can't play it... or something happens to me! I guess I could direct my RR3 profile in my will, but that's weird. The person would have to race as me...that would be true ghost racing :-o
