Mooseoh Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 So far I've lost 2 cars. One car went missing from the first safehouse after a story triggered event... the fire at the apartment Then just now, as I was coming back to the 2nd safehouse where I had a cop car in the parking spot... I see a 'criminal' getting into the back of the cop car, then a cop jumps in the front seat and takes off with my cop car! A cop stole my cop car! WTF... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stopher630 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 haha owned much? I was disapointed to see it doesn't automatically repair your vehicle like the older GTA's. I actually have to take care of my cars this game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a_flyin_penguin Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Are you holding the button down to turn off the ignition when you get out of them in your spot? I've had 2 disappear before I realized I could turn the car off when getting out. Hasn't happened since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markiij Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Is it possible to get a garage later on? In a new house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_flyin_penguin Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 What do you press to cut the car off? hold triangle or Y, whichever system you have, as you are getting out of the vehicle instead of releasing it. It will turn off your lights, engine, and radio, presumably making the car a little harder to steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoNeS29 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Yes please tell on how to cut the car off, I guess just exiting the car doesnt do it then? I havent lost any cars out of the safe house yet but i did lose the Hellway Motorcycle, but I also had 2 cars parked in there already, just thought i would see how much i could put in there.

SouleRonin Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I'd love to hear the 911 call on that one... Operator: "Hello 911, whats your emergency?" Player: "Um..Hi. I'd like to report my car being stolen." Operator: "OK sir, what was the make and model, and the last place you parked the car?" Player: "Um..Yeah, well this may seem strange, but I parked it in this painted yellow square, outside my safehouse...and it was a 2008, chevy impala, painted to look like a cop car." Operator: "Excuse ME!... Did you say its painted to LOOK like a cop car?...Lemme guess a cop stole it?" Player: "Yeah, howd you know?" Click...

djhax Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Oh man classic! He tracked you down with Lo-Jack and took his cop car back. I actually did some missions this morning before work, and saved the cop car I was driving in my safehouse parking... I'm interested to see if a cop takes it tonight when I reload my game.

Gibs2Fast4U Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 LOL, a cop car robbed by a criminal, which was robbed from a cop who robbed it later, while busting another criminal that maybe had robbed a car before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline_Mad Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 So does that mean you dont have to own the property to use the space? i also lost a car when the first appartment blew up, but can i still use the parking box outside? Also, when you first take Playboy X to his appartment at the top of algonquin, i noticed there was a yellow box outside, so testing it i parked 2 cars there, did a few missions, and came back and they are still there, do i own his appartment later in the game? And if i find more yellow boxes can i use them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitbikesbmx Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I lost a Banshee, Turismo, and Conquette in the first one. I lost the Turismo for the same reason that you did(the spoiler), and the other ones I lost when I had them both in the parking spot. The parking spot is big enough for 2 cars, so I don't see why you can't store 2 there, but I haven't lost any cars when I had only 1 there, other than the Turismo...

Driftmonkey Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 sorry for being a noob but i have never seen the parking spot to store my cars?? and is there a point in the game where you can buy houses there must be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arodtwlv Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 once i stole a police car and i left it outside in front of a wall that looks like a road and a cop comes and takes it and keeps ramming into it. it was the funniest stuff in the world. (then i shoved him out and got arrested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas42 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Yeh i was driving past the first safehouse with a 2 star wanted level and saw some guy just getting into my Sabre GT so couldn't really stop to pull him out and kick his ass... I had the same thing as you too, i think it happens to everyone when the cutscene happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
