I really like the look of it but i need to know if it's worth it. ATM I only have 580k so will need to grind out some money over the next few days and even then it will take all my money to get it. I'm worried if I buy it they'll bring out another, better car in the next update for the same money which I won't be able to buy.

 

So to anyone who has it, is it really that good ?

it's not good if u want to speed around the map. it's very stylish and will eventually be unique, so for those reasons i bought it and love it

Its really cool....

 

Unless you make the mistake of downgrading apartments and leave it in slot 8, in which case you lose it forever and don't even get the money for it... I wish they would have f*cking told me that it goes strictly by slot and NOT garage size.. Son of a bitch I just lost 700k!!!!

The soon to be uniqueness is the biggest seller for me, that and it looks bad ass... oh, and the horn. Awesome "Auuuuga" sound.

 

Auuuuuuugggaa!

Buy it, if something better does come out, you can get the money again, but don't miss your opportunity now, better safe than sorry

I don't have it, but I've driven it in races and such. Overall I think it's good and really (REALLY!) smart looking. If you like the Z-Type, you'll like the Roosevelt.

I like it, bought it for my second character but it's slow as hell and useless for racing. It does carry 6 people though so it might be a good mission/heists vehicle...

It will become unique when they remove the ability to purchase it. I bought it, love it and plan to use it as a crew vehicle since it can hold 6. Many people will bash it because of speed but if you know how to drive it, you will see its fast enough.

 

Most people who want the fastest cars are just trying to make up for there poor driving skills. This is evident by how often people crash their super cars during easy, wide open races like the long haul.

 

Buy it, you'll regret it if you don't

test the car in SP if youre still not convinced, dont buy it...

 

i personally dont regret spending a million buying and modding the car.

You can try before you buy via SP, I've tried it there and its pretty good

Or glitch it into multiplayer wink wink ;)

@OP - The car is nice. Sure, it`s no entity, but it`s surprisingly decent to drive. I bought myself 2 of them, lol - one on main and one on alt. But I really like old cars.

I replaced my youga with one. it's pretty speedy when you get it up to speed and I find the handling pretty damn fun. it's also heavy as hell (just shy of the Pushing power the youga it replaced had- and that's a van) and takes virtually no cosmetic damage in crashes.

my only gripes are that if you get boxed in by police, there is NO way you're getting out. the dimensions of the car and slightly slow acceleration starting up (it speeds up significantly if you have maybe 20 feet to work with) means you're out of the game. overall I feel like the granger is the better 6 person vehicle but the Roosevelt is more visually interesting and carries the prestige of being limited and pretty pricey.

it costs about 900k to fully mod it, including a 10k+ paint job. was able to grab it and work back up to 8 million in no time from 8.8m, the time I grabbed it.

cool little thing, the stock wheels change color with your primary paintjob so the body wheel stays the same color as the ones in use. doesn't apply to custom wheels though, obviously.

It's not that good. I bought it and will keep it till something better comes along, but I wouldn't grind cash and spend everything I have to get it. It's purely for the visual of having a gangster car. Is that important to you?

I missed most of what was announced at the update but is it possible now to sell cars like my Cheetah and Vacca which I never use, if so that would save me a lot of time.

I would get one if we had more garage space. I don't really want to give up any of my current vehicles for it.

I'm currently contemplating whether or not I actually want to keep mine. It's not really unique considering pretty much every single player has purchased one. I rarely even drive mine around.

Ignore the above fools and buy it.

And yes 1.10 patch opened up all old high end cars. I sold my adder I had forever that I never used, and could not ever sell.

I'm pretty sure if you buy and APT with a bigger garage it will be there.

I once bought a 2 car garage by mistake and was freaking out. Then i just went and got my original APT and all my cars were there.

Hope this helps.

I tried it out in SP and after the novelty of a new car worn off it just felt very average to me and not worth the $750,000 GTAO price tag it has.

It sells for 500k when fully modded...so, that's something to think about.

 

You might be pissed off you bought it but you will definitely be pissed off you didn't when you can't.

 

I've had loads of different cars in this game...I had an Adder for about a week...tried out different cars... Sold some, kept others...got them again etc etc but the Roosevelt is the first car that feels special to me. I may not use it that often but it the first car that has any worth to me. I will never get rid of it

just to let you know if its still the same as it was last month if you buy a 10 car garage again it will be back in its spot. Was for me.
