The new Dubsta 6x6 is hilariously effective both on and off road. Left a 100% tuned sandking in it's dust... and full throttle (from a standing start at the bottom) up a near vertical cliff face saw it jump a good car length and half over the brow. That and being proper 6 wheel drive... pure awesome!
And being able to seat 6 people (all be it too outside in the pickup bed) makes it a great mission truck.

And the smart car clone.... just plain silly (great).

ps. The pinto looking car.... well mine is now light baby blue with orange flames behind the front wheel wink "It's party time, excellent..."

Can you still get this if you haven't got a Gold account?

Pretty sure you have to, remember the offline players receive all DLC cars via their second garage. smile

Blew over 200k on the Glendale last night - absolutely love it - although it is kind of Euro Stance Scene-ish so probably hated. hehe

To get it I ended up selling my Super Diamond which was useless anyway, especially now I have the Dubsta 6x6 for carrying people (along with my Tailgater (hate the fact it is no longer rare), Glendale, Beejay XL etc) which is totally mental but awesome.

Some pretty cool mods for the Warrener (Classic Skyline).

Bumper delete, taped headlights, ducktail spoiler.

Fully tuned Smart is a scream too!

Second garage, isn't that online only? (haven't played the game for a while, just picking it back up now). Can't see any of the new weapons in the gun store either, despite doing an update as soon as I started playing.

Sorry, I've always been terrible at explaining things. I mean the little garages each offline player has. Michael ' s is in the Vinewood area and Franklin ' s Grove Street. Don't know about Trevor because I haven't got that far yet. hehe

Little bit annoyed its been announced for next gen. Seems like everyone else on here has the next gen console, I'll be the only muggins on his own wondering what the updated textures and increased traffic looks like.

Popped in last night for a AMG/Dubsta 6x6, fully modded it (spend about 600k in total iirc).
It's a proper beast. People do fall out of the bed pretty quick though (when you hit something and the car is on 3 wheels for a second for example).

Seems like some good cars available then? Maybe ditch the Civic R for the Smart?

Had a look and only got the cars from the other DLC... is this Hipster update another DLC or it part of one of the automatic/pushed out updates when you start the game?

You have to search for it in the game add ons section of Xbox Live I believe. Thats what I did anyway. Search for GTA 5 and it should be there.

Loving the new DLC/Update.

What new cars have we all got? I have the Dubsta 6x6, Glendale and Warrener with plans to eventually get the Pigalle and possibly the Blade. There's also a way to get the 6x6 below rank 100 and any car for free. If anyone wants to have and store a dupe of my 6x6 (only upgrades are; paint, wheels, bulletproof tyres and a couple other aesthetic things) I'd be more than happy to work a deal out. By deal, I mean duping any of the DLC cars (Pigalle, Blade and modified Warrener (I'm skint so only have visual upgrades on mine). hehe

P.S Ricky, I'm looking at you, I definitely owe you at least a 6x6 after you lost your rank when helping me get a Tailgater (which annoyingly is now available online). smile

Same here for duping a 6x6, although mine is fully upgraded (worth about 600k).
If anybody wants to trade with a fully upgraded Blade, Glendale, Pigalle or Warrener, give me a shout.

I don't want to be one to moan but I'm not too keen on the update.

They've made the cops more attentive, meaning that even killing another player results in a two star wanted level. Some of the minor things you do now such as running someone over can get you two stars which I believe is way over the top.


I don't know if it was a problem with the server that I was on, but every time I tried to use a service provided by calling someone, it wouldn't work. It would bring up the option to get the cops off me, or select a car from the mechanic, but then wouldn't let me select anything. Bloody stupid.
