Make the autoshop better

[Kaiyzzen]

Dear Rochstar

 

I would like to suggest some changes to the autoshop that i think would make it a lot better then what it is now.

You know how cars are being brought in to kit them out and then deliver them to the customer ? 

As things are now you have to pay for the changes and then you get the money you put in back later after you diliverd the car.

How much better would it be if there was a option that you could go out and steal cars then bing them in the autoshop where they will be stripped and by doing so you build up a supply up of car parts.

Where u can use these to modify the cars to the customers wishes and keep the money that you are now putting up to modify the cars and that way make a deasend amount off money.

I think with this change, the autoshop will be a business that would be a lot more intersting and lot fun to play aournd with.

GTA Forums has nothing to do with Rockstar, so you can't get in contact with Rockstar here.

Make the auto shop better, let’s find a way to silence K and Sess.

I think they should probably buff the payouts for the car deliveries, now that they added the bikes deliveries too. Those only cost 10k and you get 50k for it every time, whereas the cars cost like 20k and you only get 30k or something out of it

The thing is you can have 2 cars and you can send out your workers to deliver them, it is balanced because there is only one bike in the Clubhouse and you have to deliver it everytime.

 

So nope strongly disagree, well balance wise.

First thing they need to do with that place is actually make our mechanics learn how to f*cking drive, they said they made them better now but how much? I have yet to see them delivering a car without damages.

 

(I refuse to deliver the cars myself because the Corona bug not triggering the delivery STILL happens)

Well...Last few updates had me questioning that tbh.

 

Its pretty clear to me that they're taking some ideas from here.

[Mexicola9302]

I didn't have the corona bug since months. And i even got a satisfaction bonus once, when a car was delivered by a worker, it's all just RNG.

And thanks to the Corona bug + long driving distances, you will never see me doing those motorbike deliveries again.

 

Why can't we send out the mechanic to deliver them? Just make the custom shop be inaccessible until he comes back.

[Mexicola9302]

Hmm corona bug must be a last gen thing then, or im just lucky.

[Plocospermataceae]

I guess I've been lucky with the bike deliveries, most of the time they're like a mile from the club. But then even if they're on the other side of the map, it only takes like three minutes to drive there, so I don't mind doing it

[CUTS3R]

One thing to make the autoshop better would be to have discounts on all customizations sections.
I own the f*cking thing, why is the solid paint the only thing i get for free?

Might wanna go all the way in and give us an option to disable all the mission dialogues and skip cutscenes too.

 

I'd be spending less time on free roam and doing more heists/missions if I could just mute all of the annoying dialogues that I dont want to hear for the 184634th time.

[SM Grunge]

It will never happen but I would love if we could get free mods at our own auto shop. I mean, you own the place, you spend 200k customising a car. Where does that money go?

[El Cavilldo]

Some upgrades I've been thinking of:

 

- The Slamtruck as a delivery vehicle for our workshop. It can be placed inside if they clear the spot with the barrels near the entrance. 

- Slamtruck liveries of all the Tuner workshops, un-lockable with every new workshop purchase. 

- Different custom overalls with logos on the back of each workshop as collectables (like the arcade t-shirts) 

- Oil and dirt stains as 'makeup' options. Welding helmets and car brand's head scarfs as clothing. Car brands as tattoos. 

- Oil, rags and bolts as props around clients' cars before we fix them. 

- All customization options, pearlescents and Crew color available for client's cars. 

- All the cars from the OGs to the latest DLC as possible client's cars. 

- A random no-Slamtruck 'Night Special Delivery' of a stolen fully customizable Benny's car with increased payout, but you get 2 stars if spotted by patrolling cops looking for us. The car gets damaged by cop's bullets and being killed fails the delivery. 

- A random phone call from Sessanta with a tip from an exotic car. If we agree to get the tip, an exotic car we didn't noticed gets marked with a blue dot in the map for us only for a limited time; if we decline the tip the car is revealed to everybody but us. Chances to get the phone call increases the more exotics we deliver that day.

- Our workshop employees get new animations: looking under the hood to the car's engine ('can you help me, Boss?'), polishing the finished cars, organizing the tools, and giving maintenance and revving the Slamtruck. 

- A Trophy cabinet on the spot next to the sealed paint room, to show our progress as Tuners, exporters, contractors and Workshop owners.

Very interesting ideas, but above all else:

 

Actually make the Scamtruck do it's single main purpose that it was meant to do: Haul vehicles.

Yes, they added the Brioso 300 Widebody I requested. They even asked me, shouldn't we be adding a Comet Classic instead? And I responded, no, we definitely need that Brioso 300 Widebody.

Always wanted a chop shop business.  Seems to fit GTA.  So thumbs up here.

[L3NN99]

I think the CEO vehicle warehouse is in dire need of a makeover, perhaps more so than the Autoshop. It used to be my primary grind, but I don't think I have visited it in years. It would make more sense as a chop shop too.

Was thinking the same thing, this would make sense for the Warehouse. I could see something similar to the Bunker's new Ammu-Nation delivery. We build up a stock of parts and drive a truck to a random LSC.

 

If it wasn't automatic like the Ammu-Nation, it would be cool if we could use the NPC-modified cars (gang cars, Balla2, Sentinel XS, Sandking, etc.). Maybe they could even update the cars that pop up in those, adding in some NPC-modified Futos, Picadors, etc.

I would also like to see the car carrier trailer utilized somehow. Perhaps we could hire some of Lupe's crew to steal cars for the warehouse. It would be epic to run a legit auto shop and a chop shop simultaneously.

Lupe can snitch that rare Gang car's locations for aggresive repo missions. 

 

What if the mission's leftover NPC's cars we found also could be taken to our Warehouse to be scrapped? 

 

Merryweather Mesas, Tuners from Business Battles, Professional's Cognoscentis... could be used as parts for scraps sales.

It makes sense for Grotti cars at least.

I own the flingin' flangin' shop? Why can't I install a tracker and full coverage for stolen cars there? Or even just sell them?

You can but only if the cars are valued under 100k

[BlackMilk]

Late to the party here but what's this about a corona bug with motorcycle deliveries?

Haven't had any problems with these runs yet, except that a single time so far I've had to deliver a mod Faggio. Meh.

[Jamwes]

The Auto Shop should have two garage doors. One for driving into the mod shop and one for the garage. Or a way to drive into the mod shop without putting the car into the garage.

Well it works already if you drive to another player's autoshop. Idk why they didn't add extra option for your own..

I know about cars that are "too hot to sell". When I tried it before, I couldn't sell at my shop, but I went to LSC and it sold just fine.
