How do I get Volkswagen cars in GTA?

If you’re hunting for Volkswagens in GTA games, you should have no trouble finding some. 
Here are the three easy steps:
  • When you’re in GTA online, head over to the Eyefind internet browser.
  • Go to the Travel and Transport section
  • Pick the website that carries your car and you will have the option to buy the car.  
Once you’ve done these steps, you’ll own an awesome Bürgerfahrzeug! If you’re looking for a specific Volkswagen, just follow these steps in GTA Online:
  • Club:  You can import this vehicle from the cargo ship located at the Easter Basin Docks but only on Sundays and Wednesdays after Customs Fast Track. This vehicle will always spawn in a charcoal gray color with a custom license plate. You can buy it from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $1,280,000.
  • Bifta: The original version is added to a player’s garage automatically after you install the “Beach Bum” Update. The enhanced version can be bought on Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $75,000. It is available at Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $75,000 in Grand Theft Auto Online.
  • Dune Buggy: This rad ride is available at Southern San Andreas Super Autos for only $20,000. Agent 14 will provide any player with a Dune Buggy for use during a random bunker supply run. A version of this vehicle equipped with bullet-proof tires can be found on the SecuroServ menu in free mode for Associates and Bodyguards (but unfortunately not VIPs and CEOs) for $5,000 or if owned it is free.
  • Dune FAV: This model can be found in Warstock Cache & Carry and carries a price tag of $1,130,500 or $850,000 after finishing Severe Weather Patterns. A player can get it for free if they’ve purchased the Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack.
  • Injection: This vehicle can be bought from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $16,000. You can purchase it from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $16,000. Also, it can be requested by the Road Captain of a Motorcycle Club for $1,000 for club use but only in free mode. The one difference with this version is that it will have bulletproof tires and a bullet-resistant windshield.
  • Ramp Buggy: CEOs can purchase these vehicles with a Vehicle Warehouse from Warstock Cache & Carry for $3,192,000 or $2,400,000 (SecuroServ trade price) but only the spoiler-less version is available. You cannot store this vehicle in a garage. It’s classified as a Special Vehicle and has to be requested from the Interaction Menu.
  • Raptor: Available for purchase from Legendary Motorsport for $648,000. You can find it as a cargo-holding vehicle in the Parking Garage Business Battle.
  • Space Docker: This vehicle is not available for purchase. What you need to do is collect all Spaceship Parts, and then Franklin must go back to Omega to complete the mission entitled The Final Frontier. Then, you should be able to use the Space Docker at Omega's garage. Remember, it won't appear in his garage again but it should be available as a "special vehicle" at the garage of each protagonist. It will sometimes be seen in the VIP Work mission Transporter as a vehicle cargo located in the Wastelander’s. You can’t remove it from there or drive it. With the Arena War update, it can be unlocked as a Pegasus vehicle after reaching Sponsorship Tier 500 in Arena War (this only applies to the enhanced version).
  • Surfer: You can buy this one at Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $11,000.
  • Weevil:  You can buy this from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $870,000 or $652,500 after finishing every one of Keinemusik's requests.
Key Takeaway So many of your fave Volkswagens can be bought in GTA Online. For the most part, the vehicle will be available in your garage after purchase.

Are Volkswagens good in GTA?

In GTA, Volkswagen cars aren’t the most desirable but they offer some cool features and make the game a lot of fun. They’re not exactly the
literal fighter jet
that you can steal in GTA V but they can help you get through missions.
The Ramp Buggy is the most intriguing one to most players. Oddly, many players are hesitant to buy this vehicle but that all goes away once they get a taste of its speed and power. The Ramp Buggy might not have any weapons but it’s definitely deadly. 
If you’re looking to ram everything and anything in your way, the Ramp Buggy beats the Phantom Wedge and even Arena War vehicles. If you ask us, the Ramp Buggy is one of the best vehicles to own in GTA Online.
If you just discovered GTA or were born in Vice City, you’ll love having a Volkswagen in your online garage.

The coolest Volkswagen in GTA

Besides the Ramp Buggy, another Volkswagen vehicle you should get your hands on is the  Dune FAV. It attacks fast and with extreme prejudice. 
This armed buggy is weaponized and adept at off-roading, making it a real plus during certain missions. It’s a good choice during most heists with its traction, power, and its ability to race up steep hills.
