Stealing Steel Steeds: A Not-So-Shady Guide to Acquiring Cars in GTA Online
Ah, Los Santos. A city of sunshine, opportunity, and the ever-present urge to relieve someone else of their shiny new wheels. But hey, who needs car dealerships when you've got hustle? This guide will turn you from a sidewalk pedestrian into a veritable four-wheeled connoisseur, all without that pesky credit check.
Method 1: The Borrower (with Occasional "Forgotten Returns")
Los Santos is brimming with unattended vehicles. Fancy a spin in a tricked-out sports car? There's bound to be a high roller leaving their ride double-parked outside the casino. Just remember, a "borrowed" car isn't truly yours until you ditch the cops hot on your tail and lose them in a labyrinth of alleyways (trust me, you'll get good at this).
QuickTip: Don’t just scroll — process what you see.![]()
Subheading: A Word on "Borrowing" Etiquette
- Try not to borrow from grandmas. Seriously, their rusty sedans just aren't built for high-speed chases.
- If the owner seems particularly attached, maybe reconsider. You know, for your health and the health of your car-borrowing privileges.
Method 2: The Mechanic (with a Questionable Moral Compass)
Tip: Look out for transitions like ‘however’ or ‘but’.![]()
Found a car you absolutely must own, but it lacks the essential "mine" factor? Los Santos Customs is your friend (for a price, of course). These guys can install a tracker and some fancy insurance on pretty much anything with an engine, transforming a stolen jalopy into your own personal joyride.

QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.![]()
Los Santos Customs has its limits. Don't come rolling up in a military tank expecting a neon paint job and a "Do Not Steal" sticker. They also tend to frown upon cars already flagged as hot, so ditch the grand theft auto dreams for those rides.
Method 3: The High Roller (with a Hefty Bank Account)
QuickTip: Pause at lists — they often summarize.![]()
For the discerning petrolhead who wouldn't be caught dead in a "borrowed" vehicle, there's always the internet. Luxury cars, muscle cars, weaponized monstrosities - Los Santos' online car market has it all. Just remember, these babies come with a hefty price tag, so be prepared to grind some missions or rob a few virtual banks (within the game, of course) to fuel your automotive desires.
