Befriending Benefits: The Art of the Artful Ask
Let's be honest, stealing your friend's car is a recipe for disaster (and a passive-aggressive middle finger). Instead, we're aiming for a win-win situation. Here's your cheat sheet to charming the keys out of their greasy mitts:
QuickTip: Compare this post with what you already know.
-
The Puppy-Dog Approach: (Warning: May cause excessive eye-rolling) This is a classic for a reason. Smother your friend with compliments about their impeccable taste in automobiles. "Dude, that paint job on your Comet is smoother than a freshly paved highway!" Lay it on thick, but be sincere-ish.
-
The Strategic Scratch: (Use with Caution: Friendship Points may decrease) Accidentally "bump" into their precious vehicle while "borrowing" another car. (Wink wink, nudge nudge) This might nudge them towards selling the "damaged" goods (i.e., the car you actually want) for a quick buck.
-
The Helpful Mechanic: (Recommended for Gearheads) Offer to trick out their current ride with all the neon lights, spoilers, and ejector seats their heart desires. (Optional: Throw in a complimentary NOS tank installation for extra brownie points) A pimped-out ride might just make them forget about that old clunker you've been eyeing.
Remember: A little flattery, a sprinkle of misfortune, or a dash of mechanical expertise can go a long way in convincing your friend to part with their prized possession.
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.

The LS Car Meet: A (Slightly Less Shady) Marketplace
If the friend route isn't your style, there's always the good ol' LS Car Meet. This neon-drenched haven for gearheads is your one-stop shop for browsing (and, more importantly, buying) other players' customized rides. Just mosey on up to a car that tickles your fancy, and with a tap of a button (and a hefty chunk of change), it's yours!
Tip: Bookmark this post to revisit later.
Bonus Tip: Keep an eye out for players leaving the Car Meet. You might snag a bargain on a car they just impulse-bought in a fit of neon-fueled excitement.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
Congrats! You're Now the Proud Owner of... Wait, What's That Smoke?
So, you've got your friend's (or a stranger's) wheels. Now what? Well, for starters, make sure it runs. A quick trip to Los Santos Customs might be necessary to iron out any... "issues" the previous owner might have neglected to mention.
Important Note: Just because you bought the car doesn't mean it wasn't used in a few, shall we say, "unconventional" activities. Keep an eye out for suspicious characters and the occasional police chase siren.
There you have it, folks! With a little finesse (or a well-timed "accident"), you'll be cruising the streets of Los Santos in style. Remember, sometimes the best cars come with a story (and maybe a few bullet holes), but that's all part of the GTA charm, right? Now get out there and steal... I mean, ahem, acquire that dream car!
