So You Want a Flying Car in GTA 5? Buckle Up, Buttercup!
Ah, the flying car. The bane of traffic jams, the envy of every valet, and the ultimate way to ditch a pesky five-star wanted level (or at least it would be if the cops in Los Santos weren't miraculously good at piloting helicopters). But fear not, aspiring aeronautical auteur, because this guide will have you soaring through the skies of San Andreas like a boss... assuming you can afford the down payment on this bad boy.
How To Get The Flying Car In GTA 5 |
Step 1: Abandon All Hope of Finding a Free Lunch (or Flying Car)
Let's get one thing straight off the bat: there are no cheat codes, no hidden missions, and definitely no friendly old ladies handing out flying Deluxos (though if you find one, can I get an introduction?). The only way to snag this prized vehicle is with some good, old-fashioned in-game cash.
Yes, you read that right. Cash. And lots of it.
Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.![]()
We're talking about a cool $4,721,500 to be exact. So, dust off your favorite weaponized assault rifle, hone those grand theft auto skills, and get ready to hit the streets (or the bank, no judgement here).
Pro Tip: There's a reason why Grand Theft Auto is called Grand Theft Auto. Just sayin'.
Tip: Write down what you learned.![]()
Step 2: Warstock Cache & Carry - Your One-Stop Shop for Questionable Vehicles
Once you've amassed a fortune that would make Scrooge McDuck blush, head on over to Warstock Cache & Carry. Think of it as your friendly neighborhood arms dealer, but with a wider selection of chrome and spoilers.
Here's where things get interesting. You won't find the Deluxo just sitting there gleaming under the Los Santos sun (although, knowing Los Santos, it probably would be). You gotta delve into the magical world of the Warstock website and browse the "Special Vehicles" section.
QuickTip: Stop scrolling, read carefully here.![]()
Because apparently, a flying car is just a "special" kind of car.
Step 3: Take to the Skies! (But Maybe Ease Up on the NOS)
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a flying deathtrap... I mean, a flying car. Take her for a spin, admire the breathtaking views of Los Santos from a whole new perspective, and rain down rockets on your enemies with impunity (though again, the cops might have something to say about that).
Tip: Highlight what feels important.![]()
Just remember:
- Flying cars handle a bit differently than, say, a rusty sedan. Don't go imitating Maverick on his first flight lesson.
- Landing can be tricky. Master the art of the smooth touchdown before you attempt anything fancy.
- This isn't a clown car, people. There's only so much room up there.
So there you have it! With a little elbow grease (and a whole lot of ill-gotten gains), you too can join the elite club of flying car owners in Los Santos. Now get out there and show off your new ride (responsibly, of course). And hey, if you see a guy in a jet fighter chasing you, that's probably just me. You know, pilot error and all.
