Here are the cars I used for the difficulty-locked portion of the base-game playlist.
These cars were tuned to be both fast enough to win, and easier for me to drive [I’ve got arthritis and dexterity issues]. They’re set up for auto shifting, and generally biased more toward grip than power, so you’re not going to set any WRs, but they’re easy wins vs. the bots.

The Trial, aka Stock Showdown, 2018 BMW M5. No tune is really needed even for low-skill drivers. The car is AWD stock and the handling is perfectly acceptable as is. But if you’d like a little boost, the car can be upgraded as long as it ends up at 784 PI. My share code for that is 166 045 924
Love At First Night, B-700 Street, Super Hot Hatch. 2018 Renault Megane RS tune 855 476 261
Cloudy After Midnight, S1-900, Dirt, Rally Monsters. 1973 Hoonigan Escort RS1800 tune 852 061 504
PR Stunts, S2-998. Speed Zone: McLaren F1 GT tune 202 448 517 or Brabham BT62 395 522 431
Danger Sign and Speed Trap: Mosler MT900S tune 109 257 137 [would do the Speed Zone fine too, FWIW]
I didn’t record it, but for the Treasure Challenge, I awd swapped the Shelby Cobra, and added drift transmission, drift differential, and drift suspension. Full race weight reduction, and sport stiffening. I then mounted snow tires and race exhaust. The only tuning was raising rear tire pressure to 55 psi. I scored 750k+ on the volcano drift zone in a single attempt, without using manual shifting or being able to drift worth a hoot.
