How to unlock the Coronation achievement in Test Drive Unlimited 2 - Definitive Guide
Achieving this achievement is less a matter of skill and more about knowing which car to use, since the choice of your ride is very vital for beating those. With the right car, you will end up acing most of these on the first try.
Hawaii Cup 2 naturally doesn't unlock before you beat Hawaii Cup 1.
Obtaining all the licenses is a requirement to unlock all the cups and championships.
Upgrading them is usually only doing very little, so you can neglect that until you really think that a little bit of bhp or grip would help you tremendously.
With these cars, you'll most likely win - at least i did:
C4: Lancia Delta (beginner car - easily your best choice for whole of Ibiza)
C3: Jaguar D-Type (I think this is a wreck-car and needs to be collected).
B4: Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE
B3: Mercedes Benz ML 63 AMG
A7: Alfra Romeo Brera Italia Independent
A6: Audi TTS Coupé
A5: Lotus Evora "Solar Crown" (Prize for winning Ibiza Cup) - alt: Audi S5
A4: Chevrolet Camaro 2S
A3: Aston Martin DBS Coupe
A2: Ferrari 430 Scuderia
A1: Bugatti Veyron 16.4 (about 1.5m)
These are only suggestions, of course.
Price has no meaning for the actual performance. Try to see if you can get the cars 'used' for a little rebate.
Some minor tips:
The AI can be beaten usually with the car that your direct competitor drives (start a race and look into the roster after finishing it). Again, upgrades aren't really necessary, but might take the edge out of tricky races - however, if you have problems with a course, trying to find a different car would usually be the better solution (and getting all the cars is your long-term goal anyway).
Don't break on offroad races. Full throttle usually works best here. Steer early into corners. Since the AI breaks before corners, you will win with a significant advantage in time easily on all the offroad races.
Be careful with environmental hazzards with A and C races. Take your time, drive carefully. Don't accellerate when jumping and landing. Some cars (esp the Veyron) love to crashland really awkwardly, so breaking before lifting off might help. Also, keep an eye on the map and try to take a lift-off so that you land on all fours again.
Start championships and cups with time-trials or speed races to get the first place position overall, which gives you the pole position in any race against the AI - which is very useful in taking and keeping first place.
Be an ass - during races against the AI, immediately steer over from pole position towards the second place position and make them break instead of overtaking you. Check the rear-view (all while making sure you're on a straight line) if one of them comes close and needs to be blocked.
When launching off the start line, have the RPM meter at about 50% when the counter hits START - accellerate carefully before the start and depending on the car, 50 to 100% on the accelleration phase, so it doesnt break out.
Timed races are usually pre-beaten with one particular car (the car of your best-scoring competitor). If you have problems, chose one that has more bhp or accelleration (on curve-heavy tracks). Other than that, don't race these courses recklessly. You have enough time with the fitting car to even break a little before corners.
Even with a bad start and the first checkpoint being in the reds, you can usually take first place in the end. Just make sure you have a car you feel comfortable with (high accelleration, high top speed, good handling).
Some tracks offer a short-cut, so even if you risk penalty points, going offroad or straight through a curve towards the next checkpoint can be a big help.
Last but not least, I noticed that your choice of camera angles makes a bit difference when driving. For narrow and curvy roads, it seems to be best to have a third person view. For other races, I personally went well with hood camera.
Good luck, its certainly doable and just needs moderate skill with a bit of dedication.

You need gold in every cup & championship, not every race. I beat all cups & championships with gold except for one with silver, and I didn’t get the achievement.
Also, the last time trial of Hawaii Cup 2 left a bad taste in my mouth. The final hoorah of the game is driving a victory lap around the island with traffic on. It wasn’t even close to fun. An hour of smashing into cars at 200 mph was annoying!

It's probably also a good idea to have a couple of different cars for the later competitions (and you should be able to afford them at that point) as the Veyron in particular really doesn't work too well on twisty roads.

There are 22 championships (2 in each class) available to play in TDU2 - 8 on Ibiza and 14 on Hawaii. To play in a championship you will first need to obtain the license for that class and also purchase a vehicle in the same class to race with. Once you have completed the first championship in a class, the 'high' edition will be available to play.
Both championships in a class are relatively easy to complete. The 'high' editions are supposed to be harder, but with a strong car you can complete both championships with minimal problems. To win a championship you will need to have more points than your rivals after all events, but you don't have to win all of them. These events can be played in any order (I would recommend doing your strongest events first and defend a lead for the remaining ones) and can also be replayed if anything goes wrong. You will also be awarded the championship win if you finish level on points with a rival after all events.
There are 3 cups available to play - one on Ibiza and two on Hawaii. These cups are only unlocked after you have completed all of the championships for each island. Unlike championships, you will need to win the events in a specific order to win the cup, which is the order they are unlocked.
By winning one championship you will also unlock The Beginner, and by winning the Ibiza Cup you will unlock King of Ibiza.
Both championships and cups are located on the map under 'Single Player Challenges', and will contribute a huge amount of Competition points towards Level 60.
Please note that when playing Hawaii cup 1 you can utilise one of the money glitches (detailed in God of Cars).
