Where to Find Rare Sports Cars

GTA-V-Vehicle-Location
A good amount of rare sports cars in GTA V can be found in a particular shopping area. A section in the Rockford Hills has a ton of high end shopping, a barber shop, Ponsonbys cloth shoping, ad a Los Santos Customs spray shop. This shopping area is just a couple of blocks south of Michael’s house. Every once-in-a-while there will even be an “Adder” which is one of the rare cars that you usually have to purchase for $1,000,000. Drive, or walk around in the middle of the section on the map below and you are bound to find something fast quickly.

Where to Find Military Vehicles

So you want to drive a tank? Well tanks won’t be quite as easy to steal as jimmying open a car. If you are really good, and sneaky, you can get a bunch of different military vehicles like tanks and helicopters in GTA V out of Fort Zancudo. Head to the north side of the map and grab some kind of Fast car. I found it best to enter from the North East entrance of the base as there seems to be less guards and other things to stop you from getting in. Once you do get out of your car and steal something, you will have an immediate level 4 threat level. So make sure to move quick!

Where to Find Planes/Jets/Helicopters

There is actually a bunch of different plane, jet and helicopter locations in GTA V. Some of them can be accessed by buying up property while others can be stolen pretty easily. In the southern most tip of the map is an airport. If you walk up the stairs to go to the flight school you can actually drop down to a relatively clear area of the airport. From there you can steal pretty much any kind of flying thing possible or grab some stair cars for fun. You will get a threat level entering the area, but flying away pretty much gets rid of any stars you may pick up.

If you want a free helicopter, you can find one just South East of the strip club (smallest circle on the map below). On the block circled there will be a way to climb the building. Once you get to the top there will be a couple of helicopters that you can choose from to add to your collection.

There are a couple of airports in the north. There is a small airport hanger in the north that Trevor can by for a small biplane. You can use this biplane to do missions or just to generally mess around. There is a jet in the military facility highlighted in the above section on military vehicles that can be grabbed. Finally there is also a big landing strip in the north, just south of Trevor’s hanger, that you can take any of your stolen planes to for safe keeping.

      1. I found it…and not in any specific location. It’s strange…it seems like at any given time you only see 3 – 4 types of sedans through out the entire map. Then suddenly…there were 69 Camaros everywhere. Now I am looking for the Chevelle.

        The vehicle spawning system in the game seriously needs work.

          1. Thanks bud. I seem to spend more time looking for classic cars to collect than playing the actual game.

          2. I recall spotting a car during a mission, and I don’t think I’ve seen it since. Sadly I can’t provide exact details.

            You’re asked to get a Tow Truck, I believe it’s for one of the Heists. There’s a guy working on the car next to it. I remember it being a Sports Classic and that term only seems to be used for the rarer vehicles. Worth a look if you haven’t already completed the mission

        1. has happened on gta since gta 3, i remember looking for the Banshee for maria couldnt find one then they was everywhere,

          3. The car you’re talking about is a Peyote. The mechanic will be leaning over the front end. You have the options of knocking him out, quietly assassinate him, or ignoring him by using stealth to steal the tow truck. If you want to get the Peyote, you have to quietly take the mechanic out, jump in the tow, back up to the car, and grab it and go. You HAVE to drop the car in the same lot where you finish mission and pray the game doesn’t snatch it. The car will take damage as you tow it & it also slows your mission time down. For what it’s worth, I hated the car…terribly slow & awful handling.
