The Seasonal Events are great, I believe I'm on your friends list (Tommy_861), if you look at my profile I have the cars you need to easily beat most of the Seasonal Bonus races (including a Ferrari F1 car with an absolutely sick suspension tune on it that you should be able to slaughter the F1 races if you keep it on the track) shared there. Just click Borrow and you can feel free to use them.
Awe crap... Don't tell me it's a premium car, and not a standard like the one I bought, LOL. Yeah - it handles like crap (understeers like no one's business), but I'm hoping I can change a lot of that with mods'. I was able to get do pretty well with my Veyron on FM3. I got rid of almost all the oversteer on that one Thanks for the heads-up though. I had to paint this one another color because it was so awful. I guess I should just complete A-Spec, but that's a LONG ways away.

Shift 2 is much more promising, and I will be buying it. They supposedly took the emphasis off violence and are making it more of a real race sim. Probably due to the FIA GT License.
I probably didn't play more than a few hours on Shift... I think I'll either rent Shift 2 or see if there's a trial I can get from PS Store.
