Stevie's Car Thefts
Following Smackdown, Niko Bellic will receive a text message from Brucie's friend Stevie. He needs some cars (30 total) that Niko will need to find across Liberty City. It is similar to Brucie's Exotic Exports (email cars), except here the cars are parked and are not indicated on the map, and are never guarded by the owner. In addition, Stevie pays much more for these cars when they're in good condition than Brucie does. Just like stealing any car, if police witness a car theft, the player receives a one star wanted level. Occasionally the cars have alarms.
If the player finds the right car or motorcycle, the game shows a message saying: "You've found the vehicle Stevie is looking for." The player then needs to drive the car to Stevie's garage in Bohan. The condition of the vehicle determines how much money Niko receives. Taking the car to a Pay 'n' Spray helps increase its value if the car is damaged. However, as there are no Pay 'n' Sprays in Bohan, it is difficult to reach the garage without damage - many players favour using the Health cheat just outside the garage to ensure that it is in perfect condition. Once all 30 cars are delivered, the player can make some extra cash by bringing in any vehicle they want. The player also earns the achievement You Got The Message for delivering all 30 vehicles.
If a player wishes to complete these thefts quickly, it is recommended either that they save the game repeatedly at the nearby safehouse in Bohan, or repeatedly use a Pay 'n' Spray until they recieve a text. These methods advance the time, which means Stevie will send a text in a matter of minutes after delivering a vehicle, instead of hours.
To find out how many vehicles the player has stolen, pause the game, go to STATS, then scroll down to SCORE. Near the bottom of the list, it says, "Cars Sold to Stevie:" and the number.
Additional Note
Somehow, completing Smackdown is not the only thing you need to achieve. You need to obviously complete all of Brucie's missions and to have the Alderney Safehouse from Ray Boccino.
Some cars that you rarely encounter like the Infernus in Outlook Park or the green Calvacade rims can be taken to be stored in your safehouse parking space. Don't worry about not achieving the vehicle,as it will spawn again.
