Description

GTA Vice City

Exterior of the "new" Sunshine Autos in GTA Vice City.

In GTA Vice City, set in 1986, the business is based in a solitary modern two-storey showroom which more or less serves as a front for a vehicle theft ring (where stolen vehicles are passed off as used cars at the showroom) for BJ Smith's "BJ's Used Autos"; during the player's purchase of the showroom, BJ points out that Sunshine Autos was his first investment after he "turned gold".

The showroom becomes available for purchase for $50,000 after "Shakedown", when the player unlocks the ability to purchase various businesses in the city. Once purchased, the player will not only have access to the vehicle theft sidequest at A+B Auto, but will also be allowed to participate in a set of street races, as well as utilize the showroom's four garages that are capable of storing up eight full-size road vehicles.

The showroom also comes equipped with a Spray'n'go spray shop that can be access at any point of time in the game.

GTA Vice City Stories

The "old" Sunshine Autos in GTA Vice City Stories.

Sunshine Autos circa 1984 in GTA Vice City Stories was originally a two-building, open-air used car dealership based further north (in front of the Little Navana-Escobar International Airport shortcut); during events in GTA Vice City Stories, the old showroom exists in tandem to the construction site of the "new" Sunshine Autos further south, which is surrounded by a trailer park where Trailer Park Mafia reside. It is implied that the old dealership was completely cleared away after the completion of the new showroom between events in GTA Vice City Stories and GTA Vice City.

The dealership is primarily used by the player to purchase various vehicles, and hosts a series of Turismo races, which can be accessed from the side of the main building.

Special vehicles available
