I got gold using mostly different cars to kornfan2007 so if you're looking for alternatives try these

The jersey double back: Porsche 918 RSR
The situation: Lamborghini aventador
Drive hard: Audi R8
Drive hard with a vengeance: Lamborghini aventador (8s under platinum time on first attempt!)
Live free or drive hard: Porsche 918 RSR (credit to kornfan for that one)
The final event: McLaren F1 (no choice)

Since Live Free or Drive Hard and The Final Event are the two to cause the most aggravation for players, I found these two YouTube videos that help immensely. Both are platinum times, but if you watch them, you can get a very good idea for how to tackle any problem areas you may have. I looked at the speeds the player was carrying though corners, as well as about what time you want to hit certain sections at to give yourself the best shot at gold on those two events.
