Vapid Firebolt ASP - Discussion & Appreciation Thread

[bmxm]

GTA Wiki Link

Price: $1,894,500 (Southern San Andreas Super Autos)

"The Firebolt may technically be a humble farmhand, but a body like this is wasted on hard labor. No, this was built for something far more important: flexing till you pass out. So, when the coupes on the interstate look over and see you overtaking them in a ploughed field, they won't know you're wearing nothing but a posing pouch – but they'll know the crown is yours."

• Based on the Ford F-150 SVT Lightning
  • Comes with Fast & Furious and Midnight Club-inspired liveries
• HSW upgrade available
• Missile Lock-On Jammer upgrade available 
• Unlockable for free by completing Agents of Sabotage Career Progress Tier 4 (PS5 & Xbox Series X|S only)
  • Made purchasable via dripfeed on January 9, 2025

The shape of the headlights look to be inspired by the 11th-gen F-150, with the layout carried over from the Lightning's headlight design although slightly altered. The positions for the highbeam and turn signal have been flipped.

 

Grille looks to still be inspired by Chevrolet, particularly the one found on the 2003-2006 Chevrolet Silverado SS. Pic is too blurry to know for sure but based on the shape and that it's split along the middle, it seems likely. 

 

Front bumper looks like the one seen on the F-150 Lightning SVT, but with elements taken from the 3rd-gen Ford Expedition especially in the center with the split lower grille

Well, I'm not sure about you guys, but for me this makes up for the Walton L35 not coming with a non-lifted suspension and not looking more like the GMC Cyclone it tried to be.

If they make it electric to troll us, I will not be amused.

This is a good time to create a 90's - early 2000 American muscle garage. The Firebolt will sit nicely alongside my "Shelby" Dorado, Impaler SZ and Ruiner ZZ-8.

I hope there is a hood/grille option to remove the line. If the dorado was able to change its grille to match the real one no reason this one shouldnt

Can the grille be changed?

[JFrank03]

I need a crew cab and extended cab mod for this like.. now lol, oh and a standard bed too!

 

Also, any chance we could make this more look like a standard F-150? Well minus the headlights and taillights of course since we can't change those

 

Either way I'm super excited for this, especially since one of my friends has a 10th gen stepside, his is an extended cab tho

I bet this Extended cab would be on your list of ideas?

2000 F-150 Harley-Davidson edition

 

Back on-topic tho:
I wasn't expecting this truck to show up on the DLC's vehicle list

Glad i was wrong, And now i can have Brian's Shop truck from the very 1st F&F film

 

Anybody know what position the Firebolt ASP is on the vehicle dripfeed list?

[stingray.]

What number F-Series variant is this?

Let's see, we have the Sadler, Sandking, Bobcat(?), Caracara, Contender (I know it looks like a Tundra, but it has a Vapid badge), Slamvan, and Guardian.

Oh for sure! Either that or a top trim level

 

And I'm wondering too, I can't wait for this thing, I drive an 04 Ranger IRL and while it's not the same, it's close enough!

F150 the sport truck in the 90s let say a low to the ground pre Raptor a decade before

[TheLordMarvel]

This ride will have the HSW upgrades as well! Looks pretty good

[CUTS3R]

Got to try it as well during one of the missions and it sounds exactly like it should minus the supercharger... The sound does exist in game, the gauntlet classic has it even though its really quiet. I suppose its just a matter of sound mixing yet they dont do it at all and instead just completely pass on it.
Its not like the supercharger is forgetable detail about it either, i dunno why they just did everything else correctly but not that.

Would love to see these made as mods off of this someday, ooh and an expedition parody using this front end

Spoiler

Also, here's the version you get in the new Garment Factory missions

My only complaint so far is that the fog lights don't work and this is in the offroads class for some reason???

This truck makes me miss the 1997 Ford F-150, that my dad used to owned for over 20 years.

You can add different inserts in front of the mesh texture but you can't change the shape of the grill itself

Spoiler

Stock

Horizontal

Mesh

Hexagonal

In either plastic, chrome, or secondary color (in this case they're white)

There's also a 4th, carbon hexagonal option but it's not on PC since it's a HSW part or something

Can't wait to make mine Look like a XLT with chromed bumpers and in Light Prairie Tan Metallic with cheap looking offroad rims

[JFrank03]

Probably just me coping with wanting a Ranger in GTAO since I drive one.. but does anyone else think they took the headlights/grille shape from the Ranger? I guess you could say they just squared off the headlights from the F-150 but still..

I do hope we get a Ranger in Online or VI, I could see it being a good meme/NPC vehicle considering they're popular, and fun af.

I actually thought I was the only one! It is giving me ranger vibes looking at it! Maybe with it more squared in shape why its off mostly why. Giving me Ford Ranger Thunderbolt vibes

Correction Ford Ranger Lighting Bolt

[JE77]

It does reminds me of the Thorogood from Saints Row: The Third Remastered, which is based on the Ford Ranger. People have always thought, the 1997 Ford F-150 that my dad used owned for over 20 years, was a Ford Ranger.
