Are Fords good in GTA?

With so many Ford-inspired Vapids to choose from, you can end up with a vehicle ranging from a piece of junk to a blazing fast muscle car. Sure, a Vapid might not make your heart race like an Ocelot Pariah or Grotti Itali RX will, but they’ll provide plenty of fun for your illegal adventures in GTA.
Of course, the fastest Vapids can fly. The Vapid Pißwasser Dominator can hit a top speed of 126.5 miles per hour,so it's no slouch and will come in handy if you’re fleeing the police—but why would a solid citizen like yourself do that?
Whether you’re new to the GTA world or a grizzled online veteran, there’s no doubt you’ll find a Vapid that’s worth shelling out for!

The three coolest Fords in GTA

There are a lot of Fords/Vapids in GTA, but here are the three top models you should look to get your hands on:
  • Vapid Pißwasser Dominator:you can have this road-rager for a cool $315,000 courtesy of Southern San Andreas Autos. This beast can hit a top speed of 126.5 miles per hour and is the 22nd-fastest car in GTA Online. It’s based on a Ford Mustang.
  • Vapid FMJ:With a top speed of 125 miles per hour,the FMJ is ranked 38th in terms of the fastest cars in GTA Online. You can get one of these rad rides from Legendary Motorsport for $1.75 million. With its rear spoiler and streamlined body, the FMJ is perfect for racing. It’s based on the Ford GT/Aston Martin Vulcan.
  • Vapid Dominator GTX:This ride hits a top speed of 108 miles per hour and offers more than 100 customization options. The Dominator GTX is also based on the Ford Mustang.Get one for $725,000.
