GTA Discounts This Week: A Vehicle and Weapons Guide

GTA online releases its weekly update, and this week we are treated to a variety of discounts on vehicles and weapons. Let’s delve into what’s worth grabbing and what’s worth leaving from the updates released Thursday, the 16th of March 2023.

Vehicles

The first vehicle on the list is the Sea Sparrow, previously priced at 1815 Grand but currently on sale at 50% off, reducing the price to 975. This two-seater helicopter can reach speeds of 153 miles per hour but is not particularly responsive, making it frustrating to control. It’s a pass this week.

The Miljet, usually priced at 1,700,000 Grand, is currently on sale at 25% off, bringing it down to 1,275,000 Grand. It’s a 16-seater plane that reaches 161 miles per hour, but it’s tough to control and maneuver. If you have a large crew or enjoy public lobby challenges, it’s worth the investment.

The Tyrant, usually priced at 2,515,000 Grand, is also on sale at 25% off, bringing it down to 1,890,000 Grand. This two-seater rear-wheel-drive six-speed supercar can reach speeds of 127 miles per hour, with excellent handling, but it’s an average investment, so it’s better to skip it.

The Taipan usually priced around 2 million Grand is now on sale at 25% off. A two-seater rear-wheel-drive six-speed supercar that can reach 126 miles per hour, it’s incredibly fast and a great ride. However, it’s not unique and not worth the investment.

The Rustin is usually priced at 430 Grand but is currently discounted by 50%, bringing it down to 215. It’s a two-seater rear-wheel-drive five-speed that’s quick to accelerate, reaching top speeds of 116 miles per hour. It’s a nice ride and an amazing investment.

The Brocade 6×6 is priced at 1,450,000 Grand, but it’s on sale this week at 30% off, bringing it down to slightly over 1,000,000 Grand. It’s an all-wheel-drive service vehicle with six seats and five-speed. It’s a brilliant car, but it’s available for free after completing the first Doomsday Heist mission.

The Weaponized Tamper, usually priced at 2,108,000 Grand, is now on sale at 25% off, reducing the price to just under 1.6 million Grand. This two-seater all-wheel-drive four-speed muscle car reaches a top speed of 112 miles per hour and can pull hard. Though the handling is disappointing, it’s still worth the purchase.

The final car on the list is the Beta Jukes retailing at 378,000 Grand. It’s 50% discounted this week, bringing its price to 189 Grand. It’s a two-seater rear-wheel-drive five-speed muscle car that reaches top speeds of 112 miles per hour. However, it’s not worth the investment as Duke of Death is available at no cost.

Weapons

Grenades and Pip bombs are discounted by 30% this week, so it’s an excellent opportunity to stock up on ammunition. 

Lastly, the Jerry Can is also available at a discounted price of USD 70. It’s not used often but is an affordable buy for cheap fun.

Other

The Lost Dos DLC is available, which is a series of five missions. The Virtue is now accessible to GTA Plus members for free, but it contributes to the introduction of season passes on GTA 6. New subscribers are advised to look for more content like this if interested.

Enjoy the GTA discounts this week and stay fully aware of health protocols at all times.

well it looks like a pretty decent week
in GTA online with quite a few discounts
so let’s take a look at what’s actually
worth grabbing it from the updates
released Thursday the 16th of March 2023
starting with vehicles and we have the
sea Sparrow which is normally 1815 Grand
but is on sale this week at 50 off
bringing it down to 975. it’s a
two-seater heli that tops out about 153
mile an hour or about
264ks and this thing’s fast but it’s not
terribly responsive which can be a bit
frustrating is it worth the effort
though well not really it’s just a bit
ordinary all around and doesn’t serve
much of a purpose anymore honestly leave
it next up we have the miljet which is
normally one million at seven hundred
thousand but is on sale this week at 25
off bringing it down to one million two
hundred and seventy five grand mildjits
a 16 seater plane that tops out around
161 miles an hour about 258 K’s this
thing’s fast but it’s really slow to
respond and it doesn’t maneuver well at
all making it pretty challenging to
master so is it worth the money well
look if you have a big crew or like
doing public Lobby challenges sure but
it’s a no for me I learned my lesson
with the festival bus moving on to the
Tyrant which is normally two million
five hundred and fifteen grandbitters on
sale this week at 25 off bringing it
down to one nine the tyrants are
two-seater rear wheel drive six-speed
Supercar that tops out around 127 miles
per hour or around 203 case this thing
is fast and it pulls reasonably hard
handles like it’s on Rails too making it
an absolutely brilliant drive is it
worth it though I mean it’s not a bad
Supercar but it’s not a particularly
good one either my vote is to skip it
let’s take a look at the taipan which
normally is around two mil but is on
sale this week at 25 off bringing it
down to a Touch under one five the
taipan’s a two-seater rear wheel drive
six-speed Supercar that tops out around
126 mile an hour or about 202ks this
thing’s fast like really fast and it
pulls reasonably hard too the taipan
handles like it’s on Rails making it a
brilliant drive but should you grab it
nah honestly look it’s it’s not a
terrible car but it’s not brilliant
either it’s certainly not a standout so
I’d leave it alone so flipping over to
the Rustin which is normally 430 gram
but is on sale this week at 50 off
bringing it down to 215. it’s a
two-seater rear-wheel drive five-speed
that tops out around 116 miles per hour
or about 186 case this thing’s pretty
quick for what it is and it pulls
reasonably hard too the handling on the
rust is pretty damn good making it a
nice drive so is it worth the money yeah
absolutely it’s a great piece of Kit and
it’s a super cheap way to go really fast
let’s have a look at the brocade 6×6
which is normally one million four
hundred and fifty Grand but is on sale
this week at 30 off bringing it down to
a touch over one mil the brocade 6×6 is
a six seater all-wheel drive five-speed
service vehicle it’s a brilliant unit
but you should not buy it you get one
free when you complete the first those
missions so do not waste your money over
to the weaponized tamper which is
normally 2108
000 but is on sale this week at 25 off
bring it down to a Touch under one six
it’s a 2C all-wheel drive four-speed
muscle car that tops out at around 112
miles per hour or 179 case and this
thing’s pretty quick for what it is and
it pulls reasonably hard too the
handling on the weaponized tamper lets
it down a fair bit but that’s really not
what it’s for so should you grab it well
actually yeah without a doubt if you’ve
done the research it’s a good unit and
chances are you’ll need it at some point
so definitely worth investing in and the
final vehicle is the beta Jukes which is
normally 378 000 but is on sale this
week at 50 off bringing it down to 189.
the beta Jukes is a two-seater
rear-wheel drive five-speed muscle car
that tops out around 112 miles per hour
or about 180 case it’s pretty quick for
what it is and it gets up to speed
reasonably quickly the handling on the
beta Jukes does let it down a fair bit
making it a bit of a challenge to drive
on regular roads is it worth getting
though look normally I’d say yes but the
Duke of death is free and it’s exactly
the same cart just armored so no to the
beta yes to the death next up weapons
some of the throne weapons grenades and
pipe bombs are on sale at 30 off this
week and look I burned through these at
a rate of knots so yeah load up and
finally the Jerry can is a few Bob off
too bringing it down to seventy dollars
I don’t use this thing often but it is
cheap fun so yeah grab it a quick
mention to the last dose DLC is up which
is a series of five missions the Eudora
has dropped two and we already have
posted a review on that one The Virtue
is now available to GTA Plus members
free so definitely grab that but you
should feel deep shame when you do
because you’re the reason we will have
season passes on GTA 6. in the meantime
