I got a decent HP car from the UCD (I forgot what it was, suppose I could check my log later) and grinded until I got a Dodge Challenger SRT08, then when I had almost enough I sold them both and then had enough cash to get a 2006 Ford GT and then I've had no problems since.
Welcome! About the car, I think the Honda Civic Type R (EK) '97 is the best, because there is Compact Car and Civic cups in the Seasonal Events (needs an internet connection ) and that's still my way how to make money and sometimes A-Spec Level. It's good car to first cups, too. Sorry if somebody has said these things, I didn't read the thread wery well.
Edit: That Civic '97 is my first car in GT4 and GT5.
