The Not-So-Honest Way (GTA Online Only)
If you're playing GTA Online, then buckle up for a hilarious heist (or two). This method involves becoming a virtual Scrooge McDuck, swimming in a pool of ill-gotten gains, and using some of that sweet moolah to snag yourself a police cruiser .
Tip: Pause whenever something stands out.
Here's the scoop:
QuickTip: Keep a notepad handy.
-
Become a CEO or VIP: This fancy title basically means you're the head honcho of your own criminal enterprise. You can achieve this glorious status through your in-game phone (because who needs an office these days?).
-
Acquisition by Acquisition: Now that you're a big shot, it's time to get your hands on a little property known as a Salvage Yard. This isn't your average junkyard, this is a criminal mastermind's workshop! Once you snag this place, you'll meet some "interesting" characters who will set you on the path to pilfering fancy vehicles.
-
The Gangbanger Robbery - Act I: Scoping Out the Mission: This is where things get interesting. Using the fancy computer in your Salvage Yard (because apparently crime has gone digital), you'll choose a heist – specifically, The Gangbanger Robbery. In the first act of this nefarious operation, you'll be tasked with scoping out the Mission Row Police Station.
Important Note: Just scoping out the police station is all you need to do. Consider it a virtual case of "casing the joint" before you steal all their donuts.
QuickTip: Slow down if the pace feels too fast.

- Warstock Cache & Carry: Your One-Stop Shop for Questionable Vehicles: Once you've done your police station recon, head on over to the Warstock Cache & Carry website (because what self-respecting criminal doesn't do their online shopping?). Here, my friend, you'll find the glorious Stanier LE Cruiser, gleaming in all its siren-wailing glory!
Congratulations! You've used your criminal cunning to snag yourself a police car. Now, you can use it to confuse the ever-loving daylights out of the actual police. Just be careful not to get too cocky; those boys in blue might not appreciate your impersonation skills.
The "Maybe Not a Cop, But Still Pretty Cool" Way (Story Mode)
Alright, so maybe the online criminal mastermind stuff isn't your cup of tea. No worries! In GTA 5 Story Mode, there's a way to get behind the wheel of a police car, albeit with a slight twist. Here's the not-so-secret secret:
-
Become Public Enemy Number One: This one's pretty straightforward. Rack up a good ol' fashioned wanted level by, well, causing absolute mayhem. The higher the wanted level, the better.
-
Befriend a Patriotic Car: Once you've got the fuzz hot on your tail, keep an eye out for a patriotic police car. These bad boys are decked out in red and white, and are much more likely to contain a special item we need.
-
Pit Maneuver Paradise: This is where the fun begins! You need to use your driving skills (or lack thereof) to force the patriotic police car to crash. Now, this might take a few tries (and a few totaled vehicles), but perseverance is key!
-
Loot the Loot: Once the patriotic police car is a twisted hunk of metal, hop out and search the wreckage. There's a chance you'll find a nifty little item called a Rhino spawn code.
-
Cheats Activated!: (Hush, don't tell Rockstar!) Pull up your phone and dial the cheat code (which you can
