I found out the actual MAX+PRO and MAX+PRO+TK ranks of all the Elite Cars in the game (simply through rank calculator formula; bolded numbers are the highest for each class; also included are Tuning Kit boost delta values):

[D]
 * Chevy Impala = 1373 (+31) → 1437 (+26) [+69 → +64]
 * QUANTINO = 1399 (+82) → 1449 (+80) [+52 → +50]
 * Mazda RX-8 = 1412 (+5) → 1470 (+1) [+62 → +58]
 * Buick Avista = 1407 (+65) → 1447 (+64) [+41 → +40]

[C]
 * M-B GLC = 1528 (+44) → 1604 (+38) [+82 → +76]
 * BMW M2 = 1565 (+52) → 1627 (+47) [+67 → +72]
 * Caddy ATS-V = 1541 (+28) → 1576 (+27) [+36 → +35]
 * M-B CLA45 RS = 1610 (+53) → 1646 (+52) [+37 → +36]
 * Sbarro Sparta = 1619 (+37) → 1658 (+36) [+40 → +39]

[B]
 * BXR Bailey GT1 = 1694 (+16) → 1714 (+16) [+20]
 * Ferrari GTC4 = 1719 (+28) → 1757 (+28) [+38]
 * #1 M-B AMG GT3 = 1730 (+38) → 1777 (+36) [+49 → +47]
 * Bentley CSS '10 = 1722 (+31) → 1760 (+30) [+39 → +38]

[A]
 * Icona Vulcano = 1807 (+19) → 1846 (+17) [+41 → +39]
 * Jaguar XJ220S = 1803 (+17) → 1838 (+16) [+36 → +35]
 * Chevy Impala (Old) = 1852 (+19) → 1928 (+10) [+85 → +76]
 * M-B SLK SE = 1845 (+17) → 1913 (+8) [+77 → +68]
 * Corvette '17 = 1827 (+20) → 1878 (+16) [+55 → +51]

[S] While the Porsche 918 is listed here as having the highest MAX+PRO+TK adjusted rank to Elite Tuning 0808, its speed is lower than those of the Aventador '16 and Devel Sixteen.
 * QUANT FE = 1754 (+31) → 1777 (+31) [+23]
 * GTA Spano '16 = 1798 (+35) → 1829 (+34) [+32 → +31]
 * Aventador '16 = 1828 (+18) → 1868 (+17) [+41 → +40]
 * Porsche 918 = 1835 (+39) → 1876 (+38) [+42 → +41]
 * Mosler LS = 1821 (+13) → 1843 (+12) [+23 → +22]
 * Devel Sixteen = 1838 (-2) → 1872 (-4) [+36 → +34]

So to reiterate my previous point, to have a new non-Elite king in Class D, the new highest MAX+PRO rank would need to be at least 1412 (preferably with the resulting MAX+PRO+TK total speed being at least 236 MPH / 380 km/h); in Class C, that would be changed to a MAX+PRO rank of 1619 (preferably with the resulting MAX+PRO+TK total speed being at least 267 MPH / 430 km/h). But no, all they want is to have a small increase in the highest MAX+PRO rank over the Ariel Atom (1372) and Honda Civic '16 (1587) instead... which would only make sense if the starting rank was really low (between 505 and 736).
