The problem you guys are having when it comes to looking for cars is this. Cars are not stuck to certain areas. That is, there isn't more of a chance of an infernus showing up at Ocean beach as there is Downtown (There may be exceptions to this rule, but not that I know of - Except gang cars). What you actually need are similar types of cars. If you want an Infernus, thern steal a Cheetah or a Stinger (both sports cars) and you should notice more Infernus'. If you want an Esperanto, then I've found a Sentinal works best or possibly an Idaho.

There are four lists in total, so if you haven't seen a car listed yet, it will probably be on another list. Strangely, the lists get easier rather than harder as you complete them.

I Need To Find The RANCHER, anyone know what the hell it looks like??

oh yeah and is there a limbs cheat, like in gta3? if yes what is it?

The rancher looks similar to the landstalker (If you know what that looks like). They're very common so you shouldn't have a problem if you know what you're looking for. If you remember the Maibatsu Monstrosity from GTA 3 (not an actual driveable car - it was on an advert in the instruction manual), then that's what you're looking for.

By limbs cheat, do you mean the one where you can shoot off arms and legs? If so, then no. There isn't one. (At least no-one's found it yet)

rancher is just a big landstalker, jus bigger, thats all i notice thats different, p.s. why cant we drive maibatsu's!!! they are so advertised but we cant drive them

Rancher has two window configuration (on one side) and the Landstalker has a three window configuration.

A good place to hunt for cars in general is the stadium parking lot.

***SPOILER***

If you want to take a fast route doing the races without competition you can use the Rhino cheat and blow the cars up then do the race solo.

Heck, half the time I would go to get a car it would drive right by!

By the way - having been the right age in the 80's to be into cars here's a little enlghtenment on how they relate to real cars -


Blista Compact - Honda Civic

Mr. Whoopee - throwback to Cheech and Chong's "Nice Dreams"

Phoenix - Pontic Trans Am (the bird on the TA's were phoenixes :ghost:)

Deluxo - obviously the DeLorean without the shutters on back

Banshee - the 80's piece o' crap remade Chevy Camaro

Virgo - Chrysler New Yorker

Sabre - Chevy Nova

Sandking - Toyota 4x4 Monster Truck

Esperanto - Chevy Monte Carlo

What do you guys think?:cool:

The blista compact is not like a honda civic Infernus..... I have heard from numerous places that is a delorian and I know this is true since the delorian is the car they use in back to the future movies.........they look exactly alike!!!!!!!!!!!!

Infurnus= lamborghini
Banshee?=Looks more like Corvette
Sabre=Chevy yeah but MALIBU

Maxis, go look at a picture of a DeLorean and then look one up for an 80's something Civic...

The Blista Compact looks NOTHING like a DeLorean. I used to drive one for cripe's sake.

And I forgot, the Comet - Porsche Boxer (very early 80's)

Infernus
Nov 25th, 2002, 02:04 PM
Maxis... LOL - can you tell I just woke up???

Sorry Matrix...

Nov 25th, 2002, 02:11 PM
Someone earlier mentioned the Deluxo as looking like the DeLorean but it don't have the doors like DeLorean had...

just a thought

Matrix
Nov 25th, 2002, 04:30 PM
no I was saying the blista compact IS the Delorian......Rockstar confirmed this

There is no difference between the doors on the Blista and the doors on the Deluxo.

Please point me to the confirmation from Rockstar that they modeled the Blista after a DeLorean. There's no friggin way! First of all, the Blista Compact is just that, small and bubbly. Where have you ever seen a 'bubbly' DeLorean???? The Deluxo has a narrow front, slanted back and NO CURVES. Just like the DeLorean. :roll:

Richg67
Nov 26th, 2002, 12:38 AM
Blista Compact is a compact car. DeLorean Compact? hehehe yeah.
Like I said someone is misreading or mislead.

Deluxo is as close as it gets but even that don't look like no delorean.

looks like one too me lol probly why you had to do the sunshine missions since its a true rare car

the deluxo is a delorean isnt it? it has a remark concerning that in the offical strategy guide. says like "and your prize is something definately from the future" or something to that effect.

the only thing is that deloreans doors open.. upward.. and so does helicopter cockpits (the apache) why cant the animate the doors differently?

dan da man
Nov 26th, 2002, 01:24 PM
i think the hunter doors are fine the way they are

I do too, but they could have put some diversity in it. It couldnt of hurt
