[Top 10] GTA Online Best Cars For Under $100k

Cars are the most essential part of the game. You need them for your traveling purposes and to fill up your garages to make your friends feel jealous. Regardless of the reason, cars make GTA online what it is. After all, the game is called Grand Theft Auto. Starting as a new player, it can be challenging to decide what car to get that performs well and doesn't cost a fortune. Well, good thing you are here because today we will be looking at the best cars priced under $100,000. 

10. Hotknife - $90,000

See Hotknife in action:

Now I know this may come as a surprise, but kicking off this list at number 10 is the Vapid Hotknife. Based on the real-life 1933 Ford Hot Rod, this vintage piece is a must-have to give style to your garage.

This car falls in the muscle class and lacks significantly in handling and braking, but one cool trick this car can perform is the wheelie. It can hold a wheelie for a reasonable amount of time and is a great trick to show off in car meets. Being one of the few hot rods in the game, this car is made for style rather than performance. Adding a car to your garage that can do an impressive wheelie is worth this vintage classic's cost. 

What makes it great:

• Stylish vintage car for a low price
• Impressive wheelie time to impress your friends
• One of the few hot rods in the game
• Decent top speed and acceleration for its time

9. Karin Intruder - $16,000

See Intruder in action:

Next, we have on the list is the Karin Intruder. Priced at only $16,000, this is one of the cheapest cars a car enthusiast can own. The design seems to be inspired by two different cars. The main aspiration of this car seems to be a cross between a Subaru Loyale and a 1986-1991 Mercury Sable, with the tail lights being inspired by the 1982-1986 Toyota Camry.

Belonging to the sports category, the Intruder performs much better than the other sedans in the game especially going uphill. It also has monumental braking and handling that makes it a pleasurable ride. Although it takes a while to reach its top speed, it sustains a fairly high top speed for a sedan. It supports a larger 4.3-liter V8 engine powering the rear wheels via a 5-speed gearbox. It has a smooth-sounding engine that makes the ride enjoyable compared to the other cars in this price range.

What makes it great:

• Low cost, beneficial for new players
• A decent sports car at this price range
• A sports classic liked by all car enthusiasts
• Good handling and braking, smooth ride

7. Gallivanter Baller - $90,000

See Baller in action:

 

I mean if it's called the Baller, you have to have it on the list. Based on the Land Range Rover (L322), this SUV is one of the cheapest yet classiest cars you can get.

The baller possesses the iconic Range Rover shape with a box front and hood. It has a noticeable front bumper that increases the width of the car. The rear bumper has a concave finish with “GALLIVANTER” inscribed in the middle. This a perfect off-road vehicle if you have a low budget. Although it has a slow acceleration and feels heavy while driving, it is good at climbing steep areas. It is also one of the most durable cars in GTA online. Even at high speeds, the car doesnt understeer. It has mostly all the basic modifications to improve your experience with the car.

6. Vapid Dominator - $35,000

See Dominator in action:

Standing at number 6 is the Vapid Dominator. Heavily inspired by the 5th Gen Ford Mustang GT, the dominator is one of the best muscle cars in the game.

One of the best physical features of this car is the round headlights between the square sharp grille. It has a high torque engine that provides decent acceleration and gives the car an above-average top speed. It is one of the fastest muscle cars in a straight line, making it a perfect contender for a drag race. Due to its raw power, it has poor handling and is sturdy when turning at fast speeds. It may seem difficult to handle this car in the beginning, but once you get the hang of it, it can prove to be one the best muscle cars in the game, with a unique and pleasurable driving style. The vehicle features a V8 engine with a high torque that is silenced by the exhausts. 

What makes it great:

• Sleek and sharp body
• One of the best muscle cars at a really low price
• Good acceleration and top speed make it ideal for drag races
• Multiple customization options to make the car even better
• Good engine for revving it up at car meets

5. Karin Futo - $9,000

See Futo in action:

 

Yes, you read it right, a $9,000 car made it to the top 5. Based on the Toyota Corolla AE86, the Karin Futo is a sports car that is a gift to you from the game.

Even after all the recent sports cars added to the game, Futo stands to be one of the best getaway vehicles. It has an average acceleration and top speed but has magnificent handling and braking. It is extremely beneficial in street races with a lot of turns as this car has control over its brakes and turns swiftly. You can get all the basic modifications for the car, making it even better than the stock version.

What makes it great:

• Low cost, beneficial for new players
• Great handling and responsive braking
• A sports car that can be useful in street races
• A skilled driver can reap all the benefits from this car

4. Bravado Buffalo - $96,000

See Buffalo in action:

This muscle car lands at the number 4th spot, just outside the Top 3. This 4 door sedan has been part of the GTA franchise for a while and in fact, was Franklin's car in story mode.

Thanks to its sturdy and strong structure, the Buffalo can withstand head-on collisions without being compromised. Due to its thick tires, the braking performance of this car is one of the best in this class, even on rainy days when the road is wet. The supercharged twin cam straight 4 engine keeps the revving sound low and smooth of this car. This car has a surprisingly good acceleration as it can reach 0-60 quicker than you think. This car can handle corners well and has good traction and suspension, which nearly gives you the impression that you are driving a sports car.

What's great about it:

• Good acceleration and top speed
• Good handling and braking even on wet roads
• Strong body structure that makes the car durable
• The tough look of the car intimidates others
• A low-cost car that can be decent in drag races and street races

3. Benefactor Schwartzer - $80,000

See Shwarter in action: 

Making the top 3 is the Benefactor Schwartzer. This sports car is a pure german work of art being inspired by the Mercedes- Benz C216 CL-Class.

This car has a luxurious and pristine look to it. It is one of those cars you would only like to drive while wearing a nice suit. This car resembles the Schafter, which is another Mercedes-inspired car in the game. Performance-wise, it overtakes the Schafter. It is more agile and feels quicker, with a powerful sounding exhaust that will give the other cars a run for its money. It has better acceleration than the Sentinal XS, and in the hands of an experienced driver, it can perform drifts around sharp corners. This is one of the cars that I would suggest to all the players who are looking for a well-rounded car and not just the new players. It has multiple modifications available that improve the appearance and the drive of the car. 

What makes it great:

• Luxurious car with a fancy look that looks good in your garage 
• Good driving experience
• Affordable car for all players
• A good sports car for races
• A dream car for all the experienced players

2. Annis Elegy RH8 - $95,000 (Free after linking social club)

See Elegy in action:

 

At number 2 we have the Elegy RH8. This sports car is based on the iconic R35 Nissan GTR. The majority of the players get it for free if you link your social club account which is one of the best things about this car.

This car is breathtakingly beautiful and has a competitive performance that makes it number 2 on this list. The fact you can a Nissan GTR for free is amazing to me. This car has good acceleration and reaches the top speed relatively quickly. The thing that makes this sports car is its traction. It sticks to the ground and handles well and takes sharp turns at high speeds. The only aspect where it lacks is its braking. The Elegy RH8 features what is stated to be a 3-liter engine capable of pushing 560HP. The engine model appears to be a single cam V8, coupled to a 6-speed gearbox in a front engine, all-wheel drive layout. The engine sound is generally low revving and rather loud, comparable to the one used in the Futo but with a lower pitch.

What makes it great:

• You can get it for free
• Good speed and acceleration
• Impressive handling and traction
• One of the most iconic cars in the game
• Can be upgraded later at Benny’s
