The first half of the mission will require the player chase a pair of Pavano goons in a black [[Coquette]], who will predictably head to the pickup regardless. Drive to the diner on Mueri Street in [[Acter]], and stop in the yellow marker. Ensure you are facing north/east when you drive into the marker, because you're going to chase the Pavanos, and this is the direction that the chase begins (while following the GPS will have you facing the wrong way. During the cutscene, the Pavanos goons recognize that you are representing the Pegorinos, so they attempt to lose you on the way to the meet when driving a black [[Coquette]].
Chase the Pavanos through the various streets and alleyways, but don't shoot them, because you need them to lead you to the meet. Beware of the buses/vans/fences/scaffolding etc. which are designed specifically in this mission to disrupt your route. En route, Niko will find himself lined up with a staircase that the thugs drive past; hit it with enough speed and a stunt jump will be awarded. The chase ends at the [[Auto Eroticar|AutoEroticar]] showroom in [[Alderney City]] (ironically, only a few blocks from Jimmy's house). Use your vehicle as cover, and wipe out the Pavanos by launching grenades into the showroom, alternatively use a rocket launcher. The showroom offers the perfect opportunity for some serious carnage, as any explosives will destroy the cars, which very are close together, causing a chain reaction that will wipe out most of the Pavanos. A couple of them will still survive, but they can be gunned down with ease.
Another way is to circle around the back of the block facing the auto showroom, there's a staircase in the middle of the block which you can use to pick off the goons, which will one by one come across the street to get you. Ultimately just leaving three characters standing still inside the showroom. The [[LCPD|police]] soon join in the shoot-out (though in all likelihood Niko will also receive a 1- or 2-star wanted level during the battle). Finish the Pavanos; the player can then take the goon's Coquette to obtain and own the car, which will serve as a perfect getaway vehicle. Lose your wanted level if you have one to complete the mission.
