Special Vehicles
Through the GTA III and IV eras, there are special vehicles which one had an abilities of being bulletproof (BP), fireproof (FP), explosion-proof (EP), damage-proof (DP), pop-proof, and unique paintjob. Otherwise, all abilities or one of them that car posesses is a special vehicle.
Types
Bulletproof
- Bulletproof cars typically means the car is immune to gunshots. To try if a car is bulletproof, the player can shoot it many times and if there is no smoke coming from the car, then the car is bulletproof.
Fireproof
- This is the least valuable of all special properties available, a car that is bestowed with a fire proofing won't catch on fire from any flames surrounding the car, this means Flame Thrower or Molotovs. However plain fire proofing cars are extremley rare, and isn't to helpful otherwise.
Explosion-proof
- An explosion-proof car mean that the car is immune to rockets, satchel charges, bombs, etc. However, just because a car is explosion-proof, does not mean the car cannot be destroyed via cheats, or in the car whilst on fire.
Damage-proof
- Damage-proof ability is one of the best abilities of a car has but this is extremely rare, the car can't recieve any exterior damage, this means the player can crash the car many times without being destroyed, this also implies to melee weapons which also won't destroy the car.
Pop-proof
- Means that the car's tires cannot be popped by a spike strip, or guns and weapons, however all of the pop-proof tires vehicles cannot be saved.
Unique Paintjob
- Are simply cars that has a unique paintjob to it, that can't be gotten via Pay N' Spray, mod shop, and can only be found in missions. It also goes without saying that using a Pay N' Spray on any of these vehicles.
Rare
- Means that the vehicle cannot be found on the streets but only appear in some missions like the Phoenix in San Andreas. Rare vehicles can be saveable unlike unobtainable vehicles.
Unobtainable
- Means the car for whatever reason (exclusive for cutscenes, immovable, limited, etc...) cannot be saved, without losing the special property that it has acquired.
Destroying a special vehicle
Not all special vehicles are destroyable. There are many of ways to destroy a BP/FP/EP/DP car, this includes:
- Flipping the car up-side down
- Getting hit by a Rhino
- Sinking the car
- Using the Blow-up all cars cheat
- Getting in the car while on fire
- Taking it to a girlfriends' house and have coffee with her then the car will lose its special property and simply become normal.
