The Cheval Taipan, for example, normally costs GTA$1,980,000, while the Vapid Flash GT costs GTA$1,675,000. With the weekly discount applied, they drop to GTA$1,386,000 and GTA$1,172,500 respectively.

The ZR350 is one of the more interesting deals if you enjoy tuner cars and drifting. Its standard price is GTA$1,615,000, and it is also compatible with Drift Tuning, making the current GTA$1,130,500 sale price more attractive for players interested in LS Car Meet racing. Community discussion around this week’s update has also specifically mentioned the ZR350 as a preferred drift option.
The Buckingham Howard NX-25 stands out for a different reason. It is a fast aircraft with a normal price of GTA$1,296,750, and its tested performance puts it among the quicker aircraft in the game. At GTA$907,725 this week, it is the cheapest purchase in the main nine-vehicle discount lineup.
The Duster 300-H is another notable aircraft deal. Normally priced at GTA$1,020,000, it falls to GTA$714,000 during the event. It also has a GTA$765,000 trade price that can be unlocked through its associated Arms Trafficking content, although the weekly discount makes the standard purchase price even lower for now.
Simeon’s Premium Deluxe Motorsport showroom has five vehicles this week: the Fathom FR36, Vapid Dominator FX, Albany V-STR, Vapid Dominator GTT and Invetero Coquette. Current listed prices are GTA$1,610,000 for the FR36, GTA$1,550,000 for the Dominator FX, GTA$1,285,000 for the V-STR, GTA$1,220,000 for the Dominator GTT and GTA$138,000 for the Invetero Coquette.
The Dominator GTT is especially relevant this week because it has just become eligible for Drift Tuning. The Invetero Coquette also received Drift Tuning eligibility in this update, giving both vehicles extra relevance for players focusing on the week’s racing bonuses.
What else makes this week worth playing
The vehicle discounts are only part of the event. Random Transform Races are paying 3X GTA$ and RP throughout the week, while Drift Races and Auto Shop Robbery Contracts are paying 2X GTA$, RP and LS Car Meet Rep. From August 28 through August 30, selected Drift and Transform Races jump to 6X GTA$ and RP, making that three-day window the most lucrative period for players who enjoy the racing content.
There is also a GTA$100,000 Weekly Challenge for participating in three Drift Races. Completing a Drift Race in the Übermacht Cypher additionally unlocks the Glitch Camo drift livery, with the reward delivered within 72 hours.
| Reward | Requirement |
|---|---|
| GTA$100,000 | Participate in three Drift Races |
| Glitch Camo drift livery | Complete a Drift Race using the Übermacht Cypher |
| Dinka Veto Classic | Finish Top 5 in LS Car Meet Series for four consecutive days |
| Karin Sultan Classic | Win the Lucky Wheel vehicle prize |
Which vehicle deals are the best buys?
If you want the biggest straight cash saving, the Cheval Taipan saves GTA$594,000 and remains the most expensive vehicle in this week’s discount lineup. The Invetero Coquette D5 saves GTA$519,000, while the Obey I-Wagen saves GTA$516,000.
For players interested in drifting, the Annis ZR350 is one of the more compelling purchases because of its Drift Tuning compatibility and reduced GTA$1,130,500 price. The Vapid Flash GT and Invetero Coquette D5 are also worth testing at the LS Car Meet before buying.
The RC Bandito is a more specialized purchase. At GTA$1,113,000 after the discount, it is still expensive, but it offers remote-controlled gameplay and weaponized features rather than conventional racing performance.
For aircraft collectors, the Howard NX-25 and Duster 300-H are the obvious deals. The Howard drops below GTA$1 million, while the Duster 300-H falls to GTA$714,000. The latter is particularly appealing if you want a weaponized utility aircraft without spending several million GTA$.
