DuduLima 1,296 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Bought my other 4 Weevils, but started to tune this version and made a SA Cal-look inspired Weevil. - Branco Perola - #ACA8A500 by JR_Death. (Valeu Man) - No Bumpers. - Kracka Custom/Street Wheels. (Almost went for a Chrome Kracka, Chrome Revolver, Dished Eight or Dubbed set of wheels, maybe i will rework later). - Chrome Running Boards. - Central Exhausts. 12 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tofu86_ 571 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (edited) Who needs lights, right? This thing is great, I kept it on stock suspension and it has lots of fun body roll. And it doesn't perform too badly off-road, which I didn't expect. Edited January 10 by Tofu86_ 10 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Big Molio 11,106 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I find it surprisingly quick, I was expecting it to be dog slow. Link to post Share on other sites
Lotte 880 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I wonder if the way the body rolls is what they were going for in GTA IV. It's one of the best qualities of this car to be honest and I'm like, connecting the dots on how someone might think that would be good for a whole game if this is what the ideal execution of that idea is Edited January 11 by Lotte 2 Link to post Share on other sites
EHansen914 23 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) Love what Rockstar did with this one. Rounds out my compacts garage and looks great next to the Club! Posting my late 50's "hot-rody vibe" aired out Weevil. Color is from JR_Death, hex: #50624AFF (verde caribe.) Edited January 11 by EHansen914 10 Link to post Share on other sites

SummerFreeze 8,115 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 21 hours ago, Fish_head said: At the risk of getting flamed. I find the weevil a tad underwhelming. I bought one and it looked nice. Drove it to lsc. Driving, handling, a bit more ordinary than I was expecting. Customisations seem plentiful so went for a cal look, surfboard on roof, no bumpers, nice shade of blue. All performance mods but it still didn’t feel very exciting. Back to lsc, to turn it into some kind of baja bug. Bumpers, spotlights, the essential shovel. Things looking good until I fitted ridiculously small off road wheels. It just looked wrong and not even close to the bf injection. I agree. I still like the Injection better. (Although the Injection was one of my favorite cars in single player, so maybe it's nostalgia.) IMO the chopped/removed fenders on the Weevil only look good combined with glitched F1 wheels, because it moves them further to the outside. If it weren't for that I'd probably go for hippie livery + surfboard, but while that's a nice look, it's not all that special to me. But if others love the car so much to fill entire garages with it, that's cool. Link to post Share on other sites

Driving, handling, a bit more ordinary than I was expecting. All performance mods but it still didn’t feel very exciting. Did you put the lowest suspension setting with the massive camber on it? Some of the newer cars (Club, Retinue Mk II and some more) benefit a lot handling wise from putting the lowest suspension option on with massive camber. Its one of the reasons I made a racing Weevil and will get regular a 'civilian' one without spoiler and camber for free-roam shenanigans. I like the longer braking distances myself, its not like most cars supercar levels of braking which means you'll need a bit more finesse to drive it. Then again, I mostly like the bumpy Zion classic too. 😄 Link to post Share on other sites

I just wish you could get the Injection without all the rust(and a bit more customization wouldn't hurt). 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Scottiedog123 8,504 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) Spoiler Playing around with a couple more on the wilder side, but tbh they don't quite work.. It's not a great off roader, and not really racy enough to drive either. I'd like to see more of a performance change relative to modifications in the future, and the off road wheels do feel a little small.. I could go for that look.. if it went like a Bifta. Funny, as when it is customised in a more classic/street style, it feels faster.. like it surpasses your expectations upon getting in, but when I get in one of these two, I end up feeling let down a little.

Cutter De Blanc 15,236 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I got the free one Not as obnoxiously zippy as the Cheburek like I'd expected. Definitely keeping all the performance stock though Not like I ever really intend to drive it except to look at it anyway Link to post Share on other sites

Loving the top one especially. Inspired the design of my own. Went to go take some nice pics and some d*ckhead came by and blew it up right in front of me. So I promptly murdered his ass until he left the lobby. How dare he lay a hand on my car. 😆 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
The Gator 3,842 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Are there any unique features/qualities within the Weevil you get from English Dave? If not, I may turn this into an off road build for my Paleto garage. I wanted to leave it stock almost as a collectible but I have no idea what garage to stick it in with that LOVE livery.

VitoCorleone1992 2,613 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Hey folks! I did the cayo perico heist with my 2nd char. But, when i was chaging session, in that precise moment when the game was alrady changing session, English Dave calls me, in that moment, appear the notification of "do you really want change session?". I did cancel that, but, the call was already gone. Will he call again, like...8 hours after? Link to post Share on other sites
