    I noticed the same thing when I got on this morning. I was so excited to see a Trans Am added to the game. Went to go get the content and was confused when I saw it was required to pay to receive it after buying the deluxe edition (under the impression that would make me avoid paying even more for future DLC). When I contacted EA about the issue on twitter, they basically just told me "yeah that one DLC is all that comes with buying the deluxe edition" and they directed me here, basically saying that if enough people complain about it, they might end up doing that instead. In my opinion, its kind of * to offer one free DLC with a kind-of-okay game mode that I never play (and beat in like 20 minutes) and two cars that max out at lvl 299, and then make you pay for any DLC afterward. Every other Deluxe Edition or Season Pass that I've bought wouldn't just give you one piece of DLC and make you pay for the rest. I should've known better. * EA.

    Deluxe Edition Content:

    Deluxe edition gives you an edge over the competition.... wiiiiink 😉😉

    Stand out from the crowd with exccluuuuusssiiiiive customization items (barely distinguishable smoke/license plate, leaderboard icon-->there's a leaderboard?? Can't wait to check where I am on the "leaderboard"

    5 shipments that you totally burned through first time at the tuning shop back on release when catch up packs didn't exist.

    5 WHOLE PERCENT rep bonus to get that occasional shipment with a couple useless speedcard rolls and more ugly useless vanity stuff.
    Neat!

    TEN WHOLE PERCENT discount on in-game content using earned in-game currency... I'm honestly not sure where to find that in my U.N. international foreign trade agreement documents. 🤓

    PLAAATTIINUMMM CAR PACK:

    Exccluuuussiivvee plat( previously mentioned and still bloody useless)

    5 cars that were again, on release completely useless for online racing as they only go to 299


    All in all a serious waste of money when you look at what you actually get for game value.
    My opinion is this most recent update has just brought the game to acceptable for launch with lots of room for improvements and additional content still.
    Adding a very basic free roam months after the fact it was expected isn't the community asking how we can give you more money.
    Just disappointed.
