Need for Speed: A Totally Unofficial Guide to Snagging GTA's Fastest Ride
You've got the shades, the bomber jacket (optional, flames highly encouraged), and a burning desire to leave everyone in your dusty wake. But what if your ride is a sluggish old jalopy that wouldn't win a race against a mobility scooter? Fear not, adrenaline junkie! This guide will transform you from zero to petrol-guzzling hero in no time.
Step 1: Embrace Your Inner Accountant (or Grind Like Crazy)
Let's be honest, the fastest cars in GTA 5 cost more than a small island nation's GDP. So, buckle up for some serious cash collection. Here's your choose-your-own-adventure:
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.![]()
-
The Heist Life: Embark on a glorious career in crime! Heists are a fantastic way to line your pockets, especially the ever-lucrative Cayo Perico Heist. Just remember, with great power (and fancy cars) comes great responsibility (like maybe splitting the loot with your less, ahem, "financially secure" teammates).
-
Stock Market Shenanigans: This one requires some serious patience and a smidge of luck. But hey, if you can predict the market like a psychic hamster, then go for it! Just don't blame us if your meticulously planned investment strategy goes belly-up and you're left selling off your car collection for spare tires.
Step 2: Acquisition Options: From Freebie to Fancy
Now that you're (hopefully) rolling in the dough, it's car-buying time! Here are your top contenders:
QuickTip: Read a little, pause, then continue.![]()
-
The Freebie (with a Catch): The BF Weevil. It may not look like much, resembling a rusty bumblebee more than a speed demon. But complete a wacky DJ mission chain, and this unassuming ride becomes yours, completely free (although your time might be worth something).
-
The Bang-for-Your-Buck Bruiser: The Bravado Banshee 900R. This American muscle car isn't the absolute fastest, but with some serious upgrades, it can hold its own against pricier rides. Plus, who can resist the satisfying rumble of a well-tuned engine?
-
The King (or Queen) of the Road: The BF Weevil Custom. This is the current champion, the Usain Bolt of the car world. Though it doesn't come cheap, this souped-up version of the freebie will leave even the most tricked-out supercars in the dust.
Step 3: Don't Be a Speed Demoniac (Disclaimer Required):
Look, we all love the thrill of the race. But remember, GTA is a living, breathing world (well, kind of). So, unleash your inner speed demon responsibly. Avoid turning innocent pedestrians into hood ornaments, and maybe lay off the nitrous oxide in crowded areas. Trust us, the police here are far less forgiving than the ones in those old smokey and the bandit movies.
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.![]()
Bonus Tip: Look Good, Feel Good, Drive Fast
Let's face it, even the fastest car looks a bit dull without some personalization. So, don't forget to trick out your ride with spoilers, neon lights, and enough chrome to blind a small country. After all, looking good is half the battle, especially when you're hurtling towards the horizon at breakneck speeds.
Tip: Read the whole thing before forming an opinion.![]()
Now you're all set to become a legend of the Los Santos streets. Remember, with great speed comes great responsibility (and maybe a hefty repair bill or two). But hey, that's the price you pay for leaving everyone else in your dust!
