    Does everyones game play differently, do we each see different cars more regularly?

    Lad in work and me where talking and he is dying to get a Audi R8/9F by Obey in the game. He hasnt seen one yet in his game

    I see the Audi/Obey and Ferrari california all the time in Vinewood and at the start of the game I was seeing loads of Bulltes by Vapid but not so much now.

    So do we all see different cars???

    Depends where you are, if you're in Vinewood or around where Michael lives you'll see more sports cars, down where Franklin's original house is is more bangers and jeeps and the like, if you want high end cars go to the street near Micheal's house where the barbers and the clothe shop is, the Veyron spawns there.

    SO what cars do u see around Michaels house is it the same as me....loads of audi r8's and ferraris??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    Yeah Audis, Ferraris (the house with the construction work beside his has a Ferrari or sometimes a Banshee parked outside it) BMWs, Lambos etc. The nicer the area the nicer the cars basically.

    There is a Bugatti Veryon parked outside a shop the odd time.

    Apparently there is a famous one parked in the same spot on Rodeo Drive

    I must give the bugatti thing a go.......never seen a cheeta or coquette dying to get into one of them.

    And as the game progresses do you start seeing better and exotic cars more regularly??

    The houses in Vinewood Hills normally have the best cars, either parked outside houses or just driving in that area. And remember that hinged gates on entrances are normally openable so check in there too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭jimmer123


    Penn what cars do you see up in those areas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 410 ✭✭Kevvv


    I'm dying to find a Futo .. Aka Twin Cam AE86 Corolla

    A good few of the Sports and Sports Classics. Haven't really gotten used to the names of cars yet so can't really name any, but a lot of the fast convertibles and sedans. A lot of 4x4s and jeeps too though.

    I bought one,pimped it and POOF! it's gone.

    It only spawns at that location during certain missions
    Micheal's Epsilon mission where you must deliver 5 cars
    . But it spawns there continuously for the duration of it so you can steal one for yourself then.

    Happened with a car I pimped up as well. Playing Franklin, I left it parked outside his safe house when I should have put it into the garage. I came back from a mission and the car was gone.

    When I rob cars now, I take it to the custom shop to get the dents and scratches sorted and maybe get them customized and then take them to a garage for safe keeping.

    One thing I noticed about the garages is that they can only hold four cars.

    It drives past you :)

    Next time you go up watch the road, its a lambourghini looking car.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,283 ✭✭✭Glico Man


    The Vacca also spawns as a getaway vehicle on a mission towards the end of the game.
    When you're with Dave trying to get away from Merryweather.
    Twice I've robbed that car in two playthroughs and twice I've pumped about 100K into them only to lose them in the garages :(

    Nice looking car, but when its raining, it has serious wheelspin off the back tyres.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    Anyone know where I can find a Phoenix, a Dominator and a Bucaneer? Haven't seen any of them in my game?

    Four spaces in the garage is not enough. I'm keeping a couple cars in the impound as I have no more room.

    Dominators tend to spawn after doing the street race near Franklin's aunts place. The Phoenix and Bucaneers also spawn in that area of LS. Head down towards the Maze Bank Arena and there should be plenty of the latter 2.

    The Dominator is a truly beautiful car. Love throwing it around corners. Mine even has the classic "Ellenor" look :p

    The dodge challenger that you need for one of the heists is fastly becoming my favourite car! Also the Benefactor SLK type car has a great sound

    Dodge Challenger is an awesome car :D

    There are so many cars I want to get my hands on, but it sucks when the garages can only hold four cars. I feel I might have to make tough choices down the line when it comes to what to keep and what to get rid of.

    Stole one of those trucks for off road racing, but now it's rusting away at the bottom of a river due to bad driving on my behalf :o

    Anyone else just mod the cars you start with? I still have Franklins Buffalo and Michaels BMW. Both rocket powered at this stage, the Buffalo is my racing car of choice.

    168mph is my top speed :)

    probably explains why i have never lost a saved car cos i dont use them :P

    Yeah, Trevors jeep is unreal on the mountains when its modded and with the teddy bear at the front.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Michaels BMW? I thought it was an Audi?

    I stole the bentley from polly - nice car too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    Thought it was a 5 series M cos i found and A4 and A8 looking car elsewhere.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭jimmer123


    SO it all makes sense now as the game progresses your start seeing the more exotic cars more regularly.

    Loving the coquette :D....but done a mission where we robbed a Cheetah and an Entity and I am dying to know where you would pick them up around the city.

    For some reason even though its fastest car in the game the Adder doesnt excite me

    I have it all pimped up too. All carbon fibre, with turbo ... and bullhorns! :D


    I've only just got to the part where
    Franklin is moved to Vinewood
    , and already seeing more sports cars. I guess it's an area + progression thing on the exotics? Most exotic I've driven is the Banshee or infernus probably.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭jimmer123


    I just done the first Devlin mission where I chase after two supercars.

    I am praying the Vacca, Entity and Cheetah start appearing on the streets more regularly.

    I havent seen any on my streets so far anyway and I've completed the game. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    I think you have to buy the Cheetah. It doesn't spawn anywhere in game.

    Got my hands on the Vacca yesterday :D I was looking around while stopped at the traffic lights, saw it and got it. Safely kept in storage now.

    Have to take it for a fast drive sometime.

    Take it to LS customs, once you do it becomes "yours", then if you lose it you should be able to pick it up from the impound for $250
